DEBATE NIGHT: LIVE...

CLASH OF THE LIBS!
UPDATES

I feel, from an entertainment standpoint, Trump vs. Bernie or Trump vs. Warren is the best possible scenario in terms of election 2020.

Warren would break and unfortunately women who try to be combative are seen as shrill. Trump wants Warren

All these gumps really trying to get public support for Medicare for all by including illegals in the share!?

Do you want 4 more years of Trump, because that's how you get 4 more years of Trump

I can’t figure out why they’d stick with such a political loser.

 

[Ice That Jaw]

Mass shootings are a side effect of internet culture and media sensationalism. It has nothing to do with semi-auto rifle access.

These morons act like their aren't background checks. Blame the NRA...

 

[Happy Man]

Why can’t they just blame the shooters.

Shooting will never stop until people decide not to kill each other.

It’s fucking real simple

@kpt018 more dogging on one controversial aspect: "are you for decriminalization yes or no?"

dislike that a lot, though it's probably necessary for the format.

I know right? Who needs a straight answer anyway?

 

[Fight To Win]

If you want a civil war come for the guns. I don't know why the Dems want a war again.

 

[Amerikuracana]

these democrats are insane

Their media God has been insane regarding trump, and has used illegal immigration as a really stupid, ineffective weapon against him. They HAVE TO SOUND STUPID OR THEIR MEDIA MIGHT KICK THEM OUT OF THE TRIBE.. They like their easy lives.

 

[Richie Madano]

Bullock is such trash

 

[bobgeese]

Oh shit. Just realized my double yellows still timed out even with points added.

My 30 day break has been called off.

This debate has been amazing for Bernie and Warren. Team economic progressive ftw.

The moderators would be the best I've seen in a while, if they would stop trying to get the candidates to go after each other.

I like the short answers, and rapid fire questions. Most people aren't political junkies, and they get more out of a debate like this. It also holds people's attention better.

Are we watching the same debate?

Half the stage is calling them liars.

 

[Fawlty]

Pete is still the standout imo. He's speaking to the peoples. Hope it translates to better #s.

 

[updowniri]

Democrats calling the police on everyone that has a gun and turning them in.

Nobody is falling for that

Red flag by definition means before something happens. Taking away guns from people who committed no crime.

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

I can’t figure out why they’d stick with such a political loser.

It's like they are trying to coax the trust of a scared kitten by lighting off fireworks

 

[Nameless Ghoul]

"Dark" money...dog whistle?

 

[10mm]

Open borders!! Free life!! Spread the word!! See ya there!!

If they get into automation and manufacturing he's going curb stomp this field.

It’s fucking radioactive to normal voters.

 

[VivaRevolution]

Btw, to the point of union medical insurance, and M4A.

What no one talked about is how employers have been kicking the shit out of unions for decades, where we lose some every contract. They add co-pays and use the Medicare cost as a reason to demand takeaways elsewhere.

While I would lose my Cadillac insurance, I would see a pay raise in compensation for that in my next contract as well.

 

[ObamaPhoneLady]

Decriminalize!(illegal immigration.)

And we have our first shark jumper.
