EXCERPT:

JONES: "But this party needed this tonight. There were tears. This was not — some stuff at these conventions is artificial. This was a legitimate moment of catharsis and love. This guy, to me, the most awful thing he said was, 'I was too young to go to the Senate and now I'm too old to be president. I gave...' He said, 'I gave my best to you.' That‘s — that‘s Joe Biden.

This is what it looks like when somebody knows when it‘s time to go."
