Victorious Dems Debate Who Should Lead Them

The election is over. Now it’s time for the White House and both parties in Congress to show us what leadership looks like.

Democrats are already fighting over who will make those decisions in Congress. Some in the party don’t think Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries are the right leaders to fulfill their mandate from voters.

Congressional Republicans quickly picked Jim Jordan and John Thune to lead them in the House and Senate, respectively. Is that a sign of party unity, or a hint that no one else wants those jobs?

And in the White House, President Trump promoted Stephen Miller to be his next Chief of Staff. We discuss what that says about Trump’s leadership, priorities and messaging for the next two years.
