POLITICS Democratic Nominee 2020 Lollapalooza

Dems love a good Russian conspiracy. It's all you really have anymore.

 

all I hear her say is about American foreign policy

 

we have peaches and a lovely house.

 

You forgot her support for an “assault weapons” ban.

 

zehr would vote for her, though!

 

I wouldn't blame him.

 

Gabbard is a member of a legitimate cult

 

Didn't see debate. How was Pete?

 

Some people really seem intent to ignore Russian “interest” in our political system.

 

Possibly.

 

Not very good. Harris and Klobuchar did the best. Imo

 

Good, he has convinced me he is a top tier candidate.

 

The other candidates largely left him alone, which was curious.

Seemed a little mechanical at times but this was a win for the Iowa front runner.

 

Because he's one of the few that has figured out his best shot is to not be crazy.

 

Seems to be the anyone but warren race and that the big wigs of the party told them to easy off of the Medicare for all plan

 

I liked how he addressed his lack of Washington experience. We need more people from outside the beltway on the national stage, regardless of party.

 

Thanks, everyone. Appreciate all the feedback and interesting to hear all the perspectives.

 

His response was perfect because he turned the left mentality on the left. Most of these people have been campaigning on how awful things are here, calling America a racist, terrible place, built on the backs of slaves and controlled by the top 1/10 of the 1%.

So Pete responds to his lack of experience by pointing out that there is “over 100 years of Washington experience on the stage, and look where we are as a country.” It’s genius. None of them can respond because they’ve all built their campaign on how terrible America is. The whole thing gave me a good laugh.

 

I liked that response as well but overall I felt like he didn't stand out much on the night. Harris and Klobuchar seemed to step up the most. imo

 

I have liked Klobuchar since the Kavanaugh hearings.

Harris seems smug. I am a Washington fighter, I have gone up against X, Y, and Z [and lost]. I am one of you; I have smoked pot [and as a prosecutor put lots of people in jail for doing the same].
