He’s obviously angling for a national platform, picking silly sound-bite fights with people like DeSantis. My guess is that he runs for president, fails somewhat spectacularly due to just this issue, and then steps back into the position of senator for as long as he likes. Quite possibly for life, just like Boxer and Feinstein. It’s what I would do in his shoes. It would also give him the platform to launch another presidential campaign whenever it feels right. How many times did Biden run for president?
