We have a large number of young people in the Democratic caucus, and I would challenge anybody ... [to] stand toe-to-toe with Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters, Jim Clyburn, Steny Hoyer, all in their mid or above mid-80s," he said.

This is absolutely fucking embarrassing to say out loud and yes I believe AOC and Crockett could easily stand toe to toe with them. Equally as embarrassing to say when you've just lost an election in part because your candidate was fucking ancient and publicly declining but it took too late to finally say it's time for him to step down which fucked the Democrats chances of picking a proper replacement.
Triple embarrassing when you've just elected an old dude who just had to step down 4 months later due to health complications! I'm sorry but this dude is probably on his final stages of life and is quite literally dying and Cleaver is all "Yeah well, they may be old and ancient and on deaths doors and won't be able to do the job to its full ability but at least they could stand toe to toe with young Democrats!"
This will be the Democrats soon (except imagine the woman is also 80 years old).
(If you've seen the movie you'll know, Lol).
