We have more than 30 governor's races across the country, and we know how pivotal governors are.

I think this is a moment where we've got to get stuff done for the people in our respective states and show people the government can be a force for good in their lives, to beat back

some of that cynicism to stop the cruelty coming out of D.C.

And so I and many others are laser focused on these midterms and focusing on that.

I know that there's a broader conversation about, hey, what the Democratic Party get wrong in the last presidential election.

I'm going to leave that to others.

I got to focus every day on doing my job, on getting stuff done every single day for my community.

And to me, the best politics are good policies, good outcomes for people.

And that's what we're focused on.

So to answer your question directly, I'm laser focused on these midterms.

It is unbelievably important for all of us around the country

to be doing the same.

We don't have the luxury of being able to think too far down the road, number one.

And number two, I am inspired by the leaders we have in the Democratic Party.

We have a number of people, by the way, folks who get talked about in the media every day, and some folks who are kind of below the radar, who are just running their communities, running their cities, their towns, their states really, really well and effectively.

And I think they're inspiring, and I'm excited for more and more of them to get noticed as we go forward here.

I'm confident.

You asked me a different question.

You asked me about the leaders in the Democratic Party.

I think, okay.
