Trump-supporting billionaire Ken Langone: Republicans betrayed us
Billionaire Republican donor and Home Depot co-founder Ken Langone says he feels "betrayed" by the Republicans who attempted to overturn the election even after a mob of Trump supporters stormed the Capitol.
Langone, who voted for Trump in 2016 and gave him credit for improving the economy, said the president "exhausted everything" when he tried to overturn the results of the 2020 election. "Biden is the president," Langone said on CNBC's "Squawk Box."
"Last Wednesday was a disgrace and should never have happened in this country and if it doesn't break every American's heart, something is wrong," Langone said, referring to the Capitol siege. "It breaks my heart, for sure. I didn't sign up for that."
The billionaire said he is going to focus on supporting Biden in any way he can.
"I'm going to do everything I can from Day One to make sure I do my part to make Joe Biden the most successful president in the history of the country," he said. "If he's a great, successful president, we all win."
Langone said the country is facing "major issues," citing the pandemic, mounting debt, crumbling infrastructure and an underfunded public school system.
