Rep. Tsongas On The Democratic Party And Trump

How should congressional Democrats chart their way out of the political wilderness in the wake of last week's election? It's a question that has particular resonance for the all-Democratic Massachusetts delegation.

House Democrats were supposed to vote Thursday on who should lead their caucus, but in the wake of Donald Trump's shocking upset victory, a group of them rebelled and forced a delay in leadership elections. Maybe it's time for a new direction and new blood.

Among those who pushed for the delay: Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton, who told WBUR's Morning Edition that more time was needed.

We check in with Rep. Niki Tsongas on what she thinks is the way forward.
