I know he's said he's no longer running for president but I hope that isn't the case if he loses his majority leader bid. He gets a huge boost in name recognition so it's a win-win situation for him.
I'd vote for him over AOC, who has terrible political instincts. Current example: She said she supports Hakeem because he's running unopposed, meanwhile, Ayanna Pressley is making all the moves to prepare for a speaker bid.
