Spanish grandstanding!

And we’re off.

Bernie will you raise taxes on the middle class?
Answer: We will have Government Health Care.

Full of speeches, no one will answer a question.

Income inequality. I swear these people have never been outside the United States.

A beauty contest with ugly folks..

Wow! So far two candidates stated they have 6 figure student debts.

Maybe they should get off the stage and start working.

It's already a contest about who can continue shouting everyone else down and Gillibrand seems determined to win. Kamala just smacked her down with "America doesn't want to witness a food fight, the want to see how we're going to put food on the table." Ouch.

It’s a bigger clown show than last night. I’m sure our President is smiling. Can’t wait to read his first tweet.

Whenever Bernie speaks, he just sounds like a mad man.

Grand Spandering

Is that desperation I smell?

My takeaway from reports and clips about the debate is: How in the world did these naive, petulant children get elected to public office? We are in sooo much trouble!

Again, two people raised their hands to giving up their private insurance in favor of government insurance, and the new spin is tonight's part B to the question: "How many of you are in favor of providing health insurance to undocumented immigrants" and it looks like all of them raised their hands, even though the moderator now says Biden didn't. Ugh.

To Biden's credit, he stopped mid-sentence and said "I believe my time is up?" First person not to just keep yammering over the moderator until they were done.

They were elected by naive, petulant children

Like Warren last night, they so far seem to be heavily favoring Kamala Harris. Buttigig as getting a lot of airtime also. They're being respectful of Biden, but they don't seem to be interested.

There have always been small minded, petulant ego driven politicians. True leaders have always ultimately come along and throw the bums out. Don’t let this show fool you - we are fortunate to have strong, capable leaders that not just oppose - but get sh*t done.

Side note - am I the only one that thinks Colorado’s Mike Bennet looks like Preachers Arseface?

Okay, I’m out...

These people are such liars. Every one of them. Disgusting.

Biden still hasn’t said anything yet to seperate himself from the heard. He keeps going back to the good ol Obama days. Lol

Well, I mean, it's all he's got, really. That, and when he does, he's getting raucous applause.

Vilify Law enforcement, ICE... brilliant. Btw, the underlying theme. Me!
