California Rep. Eric Swalwell -- the youngest member of Democratic leadership in the House -- told CNN on Monday that he is weighing a run for the White House.
"I'm going to do all I can, first, to win my way back to Congress ... and then after the midterms … I am going to consider it," Swalwell told CNN's Poppy Harlow.
"I'm going to consider it, but again, right now, the best way to cut our time in hell in half is to win Congress, and we shouldn't look beyond that."
Swalwell said President Donald Trump, who is seeking reelection in 2020, has wielded "a wrecking ball to just so many freedoms" that Americans enjoy.
He added that the Democratic Party “is going to need to get faces and people who can speak to people in their 40s, to people in their 20s."
