Liberals are divided. They don’t know how to handle the way Dianne Feinstein dealt with a bunch of kids who have been brainwashed into thinking that we’re all doomed.
This is how @SenFeinstein reacted to children asking her to support the #GreenNewDeal resolution — with smugness + disrespect.
This is a fight for our generation’s survival. Her reaction is why young people desperately want new leadership in Congress. pic.twitter.com/0zAkaxruMI

There are additional clips, which you can watch here.
Feinstein is trying to clarify her position. She wants the kids to feel like they’ve been heard and assured them that she’s doing everything she can to enact “real, meaningful” climate change legislation.
I want the children from the Sunrise Movement to know they were heard loud and clear. I have been and remain committed to doing everything I can to enact real, meaningful climate change legislation. pic.twitter.com/JLoIMDf26u

It seems about 50/50 at this point. A bunch of libs are still super angry and accusing her of being an out-of-touch elitist (true), but others are defending her, saying she’s totally progressive through and through (also true).
They are all annoying, if you ask me.
I feel the worst for those kids. They are so scared and so brainwashed. I hate to see it.
