Phillips on PBS NewsHour and now trashing Hilary?

He wants Cornell West in the primaries?

Same claims, wanting choice but at some points said, without mentioned her name, that it "was her turn."



Rep. Dean Phillips:

It is about me trying to elevate a conversation that right now is surprising that nobody wants to have. And I do not want to repeat of 2016, when we essentially anointed someone, it was her turn.

And, lo and behold, look what happened. I think we're sleepwalking into the very same mistake again. And the time to have the conversation, Laura, is right now.

It's about him elevating his own name. No one wants to have the conversation, because it doesn't need to be had.
