While talking to Trevor Noah, Progressive lawmaker Pramila Jayapal touted her ability to “push” Joe Biden on positions and get him “to do things that he hadn’t signed on to before.” Jayapal appears to suggest Biden is a “malleable” candidate that lawmakers like her can influence.
Pramila Jayapal:
I will be pushing him. As soon as we get him in the White House and even before with these task forces that we had, we were able to significantly push Joe Biden to do things that he hadn’t signed on to before.
