Jaime Harrison, outgoing DNC chief, says more Democrats "need to pause" on being "rigid"

As his time as chairman of Democratic National Committee comes to a close after a difficult election cycle, Jaime Harrison hopes people in his party come to "understand that you've got to be more elastic than rigid." 

Harrison, who was picked by then-President Joe Biden to take over the role in 2021, said "Sometimes, we got folks that are very rigid. If you don't have the right job, if you didn't come from the right community, if you don't say the right word, and then therefore you are x-ed out or you're castigated." 

"We need to pause on that. Let's be a big tent, and let's be an open tent and embrace more diversity, in terms of thought," Harrison said.
