He's an inspiring voice. Jeffries, Cory Booker and Kamala Harris were a Democratic TRIAD in the first Trump presidency. I love those three. They ran like a well-tuned engine together in Congress. All three were inspirational and intelligent speakers.

Jeffries will climb higher... I am certain.

To threaten the two Republican holdouts.

But I agree, Jeffries time will come...
