We Democrats, we do have a very good and diverse coalition. It truly is diverse, everywhere you look at it. But in terms of leadership in Congress, it is true, they’re getting older.
The way the Senate works, as you know, it`s a supermajority to get anything done. It has nothing to do with age.
Good on Gavin Newsom for being the bigger person to show up and say, Mr. President, I'm glad you're here.
It's up to his colleagues to determine if they want such a coward, such a liar, to be their leader, and or maybe even speaker.
