Rather than what is best for the party and the country. Feinstein should have retired in '18. Now we must wait out her decision, even though she is far less effective now than in the past. And yet...

In January 2021, Feinstein filed the initial Federal Election Commission paperwork needed to seek reelection in 2024, when she will be 91.

Plus I think younger Senators will bring much needed vibrancy and fight to the Democratic Party.
