And there was a time in this country to where you voted Democrat because your mama voted Democrat and your grandma voted Democrat and your granddad, and you're supposed to do it without asking questions because that was the time. We've evolved, we've changed. Byron and I are two congressmen from white majority districts that President Trump would have won by 20 plus points. And we both won overwhelmingly as black men. We are literally living Dr. Martin Luther King's dream. We're being judged not by the color of our skin, but by the content of our character. (08:28–08:36)
