Strictly from a language point of view, how cool would it be to have a President Whitehouse in the White House?

I think he would be a very capable POTUS. I'm sure the main objection to him would be that he comes from such a small state so "doesn't bring anything to the ticket."

He gets to the point quickly. He doesn't worry about hurting someone's feelings.

whitehouse did not "explode"
nor did he yell or become furious

i hate these dumbass titles i'm assuming are always the work of AI. if people are actually slapping titles on these videos i wish they would fucking knock off the bullshit -- rather than constant clickbait it is also a deterrent for a lot of people who would otherwise have viewed it

again, thanks for posting this

Thanks for posting.

I have admired Senator Whitehouse for a very long time. Watching him in some of the confirmation hearings over the years has been educational for me.

Thanks for posting this. I am a big fan of Sheldon Whitehouse, I always enjoy watching him in action, and he was great here. But this video was.... not quite as advertised.

Seriously, whoever wrote the title for this must have been high, or something. That wasn't even CLOSE to an explosion. I guess "Sheldon Whitehouse Speaks Sternly About Todd Blanche Nomination 'Fraud Upon the Court' Allegations" just wouldn't have been click baitey enough. I get that. But I think this may be the most wildly exaggerated click bait title I've ever seen. Thanks, Financial Express, for building my hopes up way too high!

Don't get me wrong... I really enjoyed this video. I just would have enjoyed it even more if I hadn't been waiting for an explosion that never came.

in the Senate that has more gravitas, intelligence, courage and wisdom displayed in every legal-based battle he fights. Outstanding and respected are inadequate applied to Senator Whitehouse. His words come out in weighty, profound eloquence we rarely see in the Senate or House.

It is my opinion that he thoroughly enjoys skewering these crooks and if he didn't get paid to do it, he'd do it for free.

... Leonard Leo is another who would be wise to start researching countries in temperate climes that don't have extradition treaties with the U.S.
Yet another billionaire who isn't satisfied with wallowing in his wealth; no, he has to ruin the lives of others just for the malevolent fun of it.

“When Trump says, ‘Hoax,’ he means it’s ‘True.’” — Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse



Seems a great choice to lead the Party. Just sayin’.

Sen Whitehouse and Sen Reed, Rep Magaziner and Rep Amo, all get out and shake hands with the voters. True, we’re the smallest state but I’m very happy that they are not afraid to come out and meet us face to face.
