Hakeem Jeffries on Clashing with Bernie Sanders: ‘I Wouldn‘t Describe It as a Clash, It Was a Candid Conversation’
RUSH EXCERPT:
JEFFRIES: "No, I wouldn‘t describe it as a clash. It was a candid conversation, along with congressman greg meeks, the chair of the Congressional Black Caucus PAC. With respect to one particular race in North Carolina at the beginning of the primary cycle and trying to get a sense of his approach to that race, I do think that Senator Sanders and Democrats in both the house and the Senate understand the stakes that are in front of us, particularly as we are 100 days out, and that‘s making sure that we actually take back control of the Congress so we can end this MAGA extremism that has been unleashed on the American people, that is actively hurting hard working American taxpayers and actually commit to making life more affordable for the American people. That‘s clearly what the American people want to see done. And that‘s not what Republicans have been able to accomplish during their time in office since Trump was sworn in back in January of last year."
