RIP, but she should have retired years ago.

Too stubborn and power-hungry. Politicians should know when to retire and let a new person take over.

For example, Barbara Boxer's retirement in 2016 allowed Kamala to run (and she eventually won). That directly led to Kamala becoming VP in 2020.

RIP DiFi

Didn’t he want to put Barbara Lee? But Pelosi wanted Adam Schiff?

Yeah. And it was the main reason her daughter and staff kept her out there way longer than she should've been. Just power hungry sociopaths, man.


Politico - Feinstein’s primary caregiver: Pelosi’s daughter

“If DiFi resigns right now, there is an enormous probability that Barbara Lee gets appointed — thus, it makes it harder for Schiff,” one Pelosi family confidant told Playbook, adding that the relationship between Pelosi, her daughter and the senator is “being kept under wraps and very, very closely held.”

Well, in hindsight, the benefit of Feinstein running in 2018 is the anti-black racist Kevin de Leon isn't holding the seat. Now either Katie Porter or Adam Schiff will get it instead.

True. However, Feinstein could have retired in 2012. She was 79.

Boxer retired in 2016 when she turned 76.

Also, even in 2018, if DiFi retired, more and better Democrats would have run in the primary.
