GOP House Oversight chair backs Dem squad member for ranking member role: 'Best they got'

The Kentucky Republican explained his endorsement after being questioned by co-anchor Arthel Neville.

REP. JAMES COMER, R-KY.: I think that if you look at the current leadership with the oversight committee on the Democrat side, they've had Jamie Raskin leading them. So the Democrats have nowhere to go but up. Jamie Raskin has been wrong.

ARTHEL NEVILLE: So then how will AOC make you go up -- or make the Democrats go up?

ARTHEL NEVILLE: What about her leadership qualities?

ARTHEL NEVILLE: Do you have anything positive to say about the way she might lead?

REP. JAMES COMER, R-KY.: She's a lot nicer than Jamie Raskin, and she's pleasant to be around. So, yeah, again, they have nowhere to go but up after Jamie Raskin.
