"He changes his mind not from day to day, but from hour to hour," Escobar says of the potential risk of working with the president. "We're having this conversation and we're pretending that there's someone in the oval office that is reasonable."

Escobar says it's harder for women to run for office and hold congressional office because they are often the primary caregiver if they have small children. "Our good friend Beto is able to do what he does because Amy his wife is the primary caregiver."

Escobar starts talking about a Tide commercial she saw where the man was doing the laundry at home, and Smith cut her off. Smith: Well, some of us do laundry. Escobar: Congratulations.

Escobar's argument is that getting more women and people of color involved in elections doesn't happen organically. "People have to feel like they have someone to vote for, not someone to vote against."

Veronica Escobar says she was not planning to run for any office after her term as county judge ended, but decided to run for Congress because of frustration with Trump & O'Rourke's decision to run for the Senate.

Escobar is hesitant to give a hard yes when Smith asks if she would support efforts to impeach Trump in office. “I think we have to wait until the investigation is over."

Escobar is talking about a meme she saw on Facebook right now you guys.

After some prodding from Smith, Escobar agrees that she is a yes vote on impeachment.
