AG Letitia James fixated on Trump at last-minute campaign stop with Rep. Jasmine Crockett

State Attorney General Letitia James had a lot to say about President Trump but only a little about local policy during one of her last days of midterms stumping — as she was joined by outgoing Texas Rep.Jasmine Crockett.“Congress has neutered themselves,” James said on the steps of Brooklyn Borough Hall Sunday evening.

“Number one, I know who I am and I know whose I am.I also know who sent me to Congress.“I also know who hasn’t had a seat at the table.
