Published | Video Starts at 00:33

If you'd told me any of this 16 months when I first got into this race, I would have laughed. But what's happened is My opponent got caught by the New York Times, of all places, with an email that went out to national billionaire donors that said, come onto a zoom call and we'll teach you how taking the Wisconsin Supreme Court can change two Republican congressional seats into Democrat congressional seats. And then earlier in the week, last week, our House Minority Leader, Hakeem Jeffries, got caught saying the same thing, that we have to win this race because we can turn these Republican congressional seats into Democrat congressional seats. (00:33–00:52)
