Claire McCaskill: “I think this impeachment feels different. It is more emotional because of what happened in the Capitol on January 6th.”

This is never a referendum. Presidential elections, by the time they run around, is always, 'well, who do you like slightly better than the two you don't like?' So it is a binary choice.

This is really, really bad. What they’re saying is, if you criticize the president of the United States, as an elected member of Congress, we will silence you.

I have won when the polls said I couldn't and I have lost when the polls said I would win, so I am not a big believer in all of the horse race stuff.

I think that, fundamentally, voters do understand that we have very, very low unemployment. They see it in their families, that everybody has jobs, everybody can get jobs, their jobs are paying slightly better.
