Julian Castro: Trump Will Be ‘Most Corrupt Guy to Take the Oval Office’

Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julian Castro last night tweeted that Donald Trump would be the “most corrupt guy to take the Oval Office”:

Trump is so corrupt that if Democrats controlled even one chamber of Congress, he'd be done before he even got started. #2018

So Trump– the shadiest, most corrupt guy to take the Oval Office, will have no strong federal checks and balances. Has to change. #2018

Following the election last month, Castro said, “It’s up to [Trump] more than anybody to make sure he approaches the presidency differently from how he approached the campaign. Being president isn’t like being a campaigner. One of the things he benefited from is very, very low expectations.”
