I'm not going to dumb down a complicated issue to a slogan that makes people happy knowing I can't do it for two reasons. Number one, it's not who I am. If I say I'm going to do something, I do it. I say I'm going to pass marriage equality. I do it. I say I'm going to pass the highest minimum wage in the United States of America. I do it. I say I'm going to pass the best paid family leave program. I do it. I say I'm going to build a new LaGuardia Airport. I do it. That's my personal credibility. Second, this is why the Democratic Party is in trouble. Because it says things that are disconnected from reality and things they can't do. (05:25–05:26)
