Gillibrand used her five minutes at the Hall of Fame celebration to champion women and argue that “of course” a woman can win in 2020. “Now is not the time to be polite, now is not the time for small steps, now is the time to fight like hell,” Gillibrand said. — PolitiTweet.org

Buttigieg, as he has been doing lately, said Dems are not going to win in 2020 by “playing it safe, of promising a return to normal.” “We are where we are because normal broke,” Buttigieg said, adding his line that candidates can promise going back to the 1990s or 2002. — PolitiTweet.org
