When Gov. Phil Murphy got some pushback from NBC's Chuck Todd on this past Sunday's Meet the Press for the Governor's enthusiastic description of himself as a "progressive" and a "cold blooded capitalist" the former Goldman Sachs executive doubled down.
TODD: You think progressives accept you as a progressive if you call yourself a cold-blooded capitalist?
MURPHY: I don't know. I don't mean this literally but I kind of don't care. That's who I am. And I would put up both our economic record and progressive record up against any other American state over the last five years.
