Candidates must reach 2% in at least four national polls identified by the DNC to determine eligibility. The polls for this town hall must be released between June 28, 2019 and September 25, 2019.

[quote]In addition, candidates must also meet the donor threshold outlined by the DNC for the October debate, in which they must have 130,000 unique donors, including 400 donors each from at least 20 states.

[quote]So far, Joe Biden, Pete Buttigieg, Julián Castro, Kamala Harris, Amy Klobuchar, and Elizabeth Warren have accepted HRC's invitation to participate in the event.

Appetite for Self-Destruction

T- 99% of the discussion.

GLB- 1% of the discussion.

r2 Please explain.

Expect lots of alcohol, PrEP and other drug commercials.

Will they pay Aaron Schock and Andy Cohen to weigh in with hard-hitting commentary about which candidate is hottest?

Will Don Lemon ask about black holes?

Stay tuned!

I think we might finally get the answer to The Question from Pete - top or bottom?

I hope he makes that one DLer happy and says "side".

Anderson Cooper: Mayor Pete, as you may know, my good friend Andy Cohen is all top.

Pete Buttigieg: I’m sorry? No, I don’t—look, the LGBT community is facing a lot of discrimination under this administration. When I am president, I will—

AC: I’m sorry, Sir, but I didn’t finish my question and Andy and I have a bet going. SJP is also in on it. So, Mayor Pete, top or bottom?

PB: I’m not going to answer that.

AC: You can’t plead the fifth. This isn’t Bravo.

PB: Are you sure about this? This is ridiculous.

AC: Dude! You have “butt” in your name! [giggles] Admit it, total bottom. I called it!

PB: I don’t appreciate this. At all.

Don Lemon: I’m, I’m sorry, Mayor Buttigieg. I apologize for my colleague. He has a Cohen problem. Listen, switching gears. Did you know if you don’t want to—you know, if a man puts his...you know. In your, your face, in your mouth. Teeth. You can use your teeth. Did that ever occur to you?

I'll watch if Cuomo interviews in a speedo.

7 to 11 ? Oh come on, no one has time for that.

I'm definitely watching, only because I've never seen Steyer in anything. And you just know Biden will be a gaffe machine, talking about Will&Grace non-stop. Hope he does a Karen impression! 😂

Do we think Booker's performance will finally put to rest the rumours around him here on DL?

Earlier thread, dear OP:

r13 Sorry, but this thread was earlier, even though the exact time is not shown anymore. And excuse me for not wanting to participate in that vile thread, which is the absolute sewers of DL.

R14 = Andy Cohen.

We look forward to the exclusive sit-down candidate chat show fake town halls with "The Jews," "The Blacks" and "The Olds."

r15 No, I'm just not a complaining negative Mary who creates awful threads about historic events for gay people, such as this televised town hall. And I have better things to do than complain about the "Tranny Menace" all the time.

It's not 'historic' to be compartmentalized and ghettoized by nonprofits that have shanghaied the discourse while parlaying favor with politicians for their strident Trans-first agenda. Your smugness and complacency are part of the problem.

Less alt-right bloviating, more familiarising yourself with the search function on this site. For example, searching for "town hall" or "LGBT", or simply "CNN" before creating your thread would have brought up this one, made a couple of hours earlier. But you create so many threads in a day, I can see how you don't have any time left for such basic courtesy.

Now go hide under your fucking bed before the terrible trannies come to chop your balls off. Whatever's left of them.

Screeching R18, claiming seniority to being a bitch while avoiding the sad truth.

The entire event is a useless dog and pony show to placate bourgie gays like you, who pay $500 for a handshake with 5% Pete.

Senile Biden is chosen by the Bilderbergs, etc. I fear no tranny. I'm just annoyed by their hideousness, like yours, OP/ R18, only at least we don't have to see your face.

Nico Tortorella should interview Castro .

Bernie changes his mind!

Oh, and some candidates have been swapped around - Pete will now appear with Anderson, not Cuomo. 😏
