103. I remember when Nina was banned from speaking at the national convention

Feb 2019

There was a great deal of concern about her speaking at the national convention. My whip let us know that Nina was not going to be allowed to speak

It turns out that this was a good decision

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
