And I think you'll see that also with Senator Harris, because this is a really important choice for us. As I said, this Senate term is going to last until 2030. Ted Cruz has had twelve years of showing us how he would leave, which to me is a way that pits us against each other, that doesn't actually get anything done, that spends a lot of time on himself, but not much time on Texans. I've been the most bipartisan Texan in Congress. As you know, Jason, it's really important to me. I will lead us in a fundamentally different direction, one that tries to bring us together around our shared values. (07:06–07:19)
