Did Warren ever say one positive thing about America last night? She was all how terrible our country is.

This must be the consequence of democrats controlling our education system??! Along with the majority of media being liberal and deeply corrupted.
I quite agree with your comment. Trump's egomania and thin skin have always been off-putting to me, even way before he was president, but as president, I find myself in agreement with most of his policies.
The current collection of Democratic candidates is just a despicable coterie of self-righteous panderers and phonies, who all seem to despise the country that allowed them to be in their current exalted, but undeserving positions.
Indeed, the "educational" system and the oh so corrupt mass media have managed to create a mass of clueless, unthinking, low information fools.
I'm glad I am of an age where I likely won't be around to see the destruction of our one great country.

Warren will overnight kill the economy if she gets in ....

On my first day as president, I will sign an executive order that puts a total moratorium on all new fossil fuel leases for drilling offshore and on public lands," she tweeted. "And I will ban fracking—everywhere."

Castro WAS the worst. In addition, he was clearly there to try to be the next Kamala Harris, "taking on" Biden (and he'll tank, as she did). Instead, he looked like a miserable crank, attacking Biden's memory--then doubling down when he got booed for it.

Between that and the protesters, I felt sorry for Biden. How the hell did those people get in there?

Protesters and hecklers have no place at these events.

I guess you watched a different "debate" than the one I watched on ABC.


At least four of the people on that stage beat Donald in the electorate, hands down. Donald gets his 35%. That's it. No matter what he does in the next year. Good or bad.


To be honest, I could take or leave most of the candidates we saw last night. Maybe Warren or Booker. Hopefully we will see a new candidate emerge in the coming weeks, but it is getting late.


Do we really have to listen to 13 more months of this crap? Gawd I hope not, but I said the same thing in 2016 with the Repubs...and look what we got. Thank you Russia. You really pulled one on America.

I said it a couple of months ago. The first thing that will happen if I Democrat wins (any Democrat) is the stock market will crash. Not correct. Crash.

the democrats are moving toward democratic socialism and many americans seem to want a western European, democratic socialist government. It is a fact that the two most leftists candidates, bernie and warren, are in the top three dem presidential candidates per the polls.

what is ironic is just as many American voters are turning to democratic socialism, many voters in the EU countries are raging a furious battle with their politicians to reverse many of the problematic issues of democratic socialism: globalization, growing social welfare programs, slow economic growth, and unfettered immigration.

the negative result of democratic socialism governments are there for all americans to see if they only would. so many americans have an idealized view of what this kind of government reaps.

And every gun store and gun show will have "Beto" sales, with AR-15's being referred to as "O'Rourkes". Similar to the Rosie O'Donnell episode many years ago.
