"In his speech in Cleveland, Obama made fun of this, too. He recalled how one Republican had told him that 'she couldn't agree with me more that we need to be helping working moms and dads more. Another wrote a policy memo saying that Republicans must define themselves as the party of the American worker, the party of higher wages.' The problem the Republicans have, the President went on, is that 'the rhetoric doesn’t match the reality. The walk doesn't sync up with the talk. And all you have to do is look at the budget that House Republicans put forward just yesterday,' which 'doubles-down on trickle down.'"
