40. That's always a risk ...

But Adam has a better resume and more experience and we can use Katie in her district.
If you hate to think we lose Katie, by running for Senate, she's pretty much giving her seat away, big mistake.

Adam Schiff's public resume
I'm surprised that his official .gov doesn't mention anything about being the Lead Impeachment Manager (i.e. Prosecutor) for the 2nd Impeachment of Pendejo45 or member of the 1st Pendejo45 Impeachment & Jan 6th Committee.
These are some big time credentials, that Katie can't match.

California Senate since 1996
In Congress since 2001
https://schiff.house.gov/about/committee-assignments

Katie Porter public resume
In Congress since 2018
https://porter.house.gov/about/committees-and-caucuses.htm

Plus, Adam's wife is named Eve. So we need a Adam in the Senate & an Adam & Eve (great introduction) at formal State Dinners when possible.
