...didn't like his cadence.

Told me they didn't think he's bright enough to be Dem leader.

There's generational racism (Trump), and there's generation still unlearned in it which seeks advantage in denigrating our differences, instead of advantaging us all of that diversity of perspective and approach.

Weird opposition though, coming from our side, because Jeffries has held his membership together tighter than Pelosi and the oppposition she faced from a supposedly 'moderate' wing of Democrats in the House.

Jeffries made republicans own BOTH of their shutdowns. THAT'S what this is about. Butt hurt.
