Easy for Jeffries and other Dems to say! They have security, limousines, and gated housing.
They are so out of touch with what the rest of us have to deal with it’s pitiful.

Way to divert attention away from the question. I see why politicians evade questions, but in this case, why couldn’t he just directly answer the question. Does he do the same thing to his wife? “Honey, did you remember to pick up some milk on your way home”? “ Well, I think you need to first take into account the traffic situation, and moreover, the entire economic landscape. Until we can grasp the HOW and the WHY of something, we can never realistically assess WHEN the milk can be bought.”

See how slow he's talking? He's making it up as he goes.
