Nevada debate thread 2

Biden: COME ON MAN!!!

Klobachar: Keep my name out yo mouth

I need a pee break! Aren't there commercials?!?

Trump is fucking loving this

That was a mess. It wasn't even college debate team civil.

Link to Part 1 thread

Actually, I think that Biden is coming out of this looking pretty good so far.

Bloomberg is mostly attacking Trump, not Demsctonight. I’m not sure this is the right night for that approach.

Biden might actually rise up after this debate because he's not the focus

everyone else is attacking each other and he looks like the calm, sensible one.

I am loving Warren tonight though

this is the best debate yet. Too bad Kamala isn't here though. It would have been fun having her in the mix too

Liz effectively ended Bloomberg run tonight

It's all moving so fast.

Bajour!

(because I did ‘t get a fucking chance on the first thread)

[quote]Oh mx this is an embarrassing circus for us.

Politics is hardball. This is good preparation for dealing with Trump.

Amy is unstable.

Not sure this is the night to be completely overlooked r9

"Are you saying I'm DUMB?"

Honestly, this is just sad to watch. No substantive debates. Just name calling. Talking about twitter trolls. It’s a mess but I’m glad Warren is murdering Bloomberg.

if Warren doesn't get a bump out of this then she's done but I'm loving her right now

Liz has succeeded in ripping the curtain out from in front of the Great and Powerful Oz.

Biden looks Ok in this I agree.

Still sure you want to enter this bucket of crabs Bloomberg?

Amy definitely lost her composure in that reparte. Not a good sign.

Thanks R6. It is my pet peeve when people don't link back!!!

[QUOTE] Liz effectively ended Bloomberg run tonight

It’s far from over. He’s got too many powerful people in his pocket. They’ll be out there covering for him.

Amy, now do DeNiro, You talking to ME?

I want more attacks on Trump fewer attacks on each other

Moderators are asking shit questions to spur attacks.

Ask policy questions and attack Trump.

Happy it’s a bad night for Amy. I can’t fucking stand her. SHE NEEDS TO GO THE FUCK AWAY NOW.

After the first hour, Biden and Warren were on top in my book. Bernie comes next. Pete and Amy was like watching a car wreck in slow motion. And Mikey shoulda stayed home.

I love Amy’s bluntness, though

For once, I wish this debate was 3 hours instead of 2.

Poor fragile Amy. She’ll think back on this night and softly sob.

I disagree. I think they've been asking exactly the questions that we wanted them to do.

[quote]if Warren doesn't get a bump out of this then s

I'm feeling "effective vice president" VERY EFECTIVE!

Thank God, it’s a long time until November!

Amy was not amused by that moderator’s trivia joke!

Warren did not have to essentially say fuck you to Mexico and the Latina moderator. Not a good look.

If Liz spent some time on Bernie, I might actually respect her performance tonight. Bloomberg is taking her voters, Bernie is.

Wow, this is kind of a solid answer from Joe.

Or it was until he stuttered.

Bloomberg having his best moment now

I think Liz saved herself tonight. We'll see with the polls, but damn, I think she is the one that did what she needed to do here.

Liz damaged herself with the shrieking.

I dislike the hispanic interviewer. We aren't living in Mexico, bitch!

Joe is speaking like Aunt Clara.

Joe looks like he has lost weight.

none of them seem to be performing "easily". That's something Trump does well.

[quote]I bet the only man up there that has never been accused of sexually harassing a woman is Mayor Pete.

I bet the only man up there who has never actually sexually harassed a woman is Pete, and I'm not too sure about that. Remember, he didn't come out until recently which means he spent his younger years playing it up with his straight bros.

Amy showed how unstable she is and will buckle down in 5 minutes against Trump. I’m sure I’ll get called sexist but she’s WAY too emotional. Pete was a dick but come on, it’s a debate!

Mike is strong on substance and he knows it.

Warren may get a bump out of this. Bloomberg is done. Bernie's face is so red from stress. Biden is Biden. Pete is stable, yet feisty (if that makes sense.) He continues to grow in confidence and strength. He's very impressive.

Did Pete take a Xanax? I like him, but he seems so bemused and smug tonight.

this Nevada guy has been on MSNBC all week leading up to the debate

A Bernie + Liz ticket is my dream team

I have a crush on Bernie.

I worship Liz.

Trump just got TONS of fodder because they ripped each other apart instead of being united.

Amy can fuck off with her Evita Peron esque. “Nominate a Woman” hand gesture she gave herself at the beginning.

Did Pete hand her ass for good tonight? I stopped watching.

OMG is Liz back! She is on fire and Bloomberg is turning into a puddle. I still adore Bernie and will happily vote for him but my first choice, my Liz is back!

Fucking Bloomberg thought Bernie was going to be his problem tonight. He is taking a Warren pounding that hopefully he won't recover from.

Me too R31 and I'm about to wet my chair. There isn't enough time for pee. What a great debate. I'm sorry to save this but climate change is the boring part. Maybe I'll take my pee break now.

Warren has bad posture. And would it kill her to wear a smart suit one and awhile?

Pete's face seems puffy.

Since we're talking about Nevada...

When they gonna show us dem aliens!

So far the idiots on this thread have used all the sexist dog whistles they could think of to describe Warren kicking ass and taking names...shrieking, uncontrolled, cunt, angry and on and on. Says more about you than her. She's doing great tonight. Her numbers will show it.

[quote]this Nevada guy has been on MSNBC all week leading up to the debate

Ralston is great. He's got a wonderful Twitter.

Or, Twittah, I suppose.

I still can't believe Warren uses Ponds as face cream.

Klobuchar took a quote of his out of context to score epolitical points and humiliate him at the last debate. Pete did what he had to do.

Warren is actually doing quite well IMO

All the old ones have cracking voice problems. Including Amy.

Maybe the candidates are getting as tired of these contests as we are. Bloomberg has to be wondering why he didn’t just stick with commercials.

[italic] BAZINGA !

Are the two Jews going after each other?

Thought not.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS CHUCK???

R64, link about Liz using Ponds please.

Pete is the only one not screaming like a fucking banshee.

Fuck Bloomberg. Ancient asshole.

Yeah, the Bloomberg hacks are definitely here trying to do damage control. They suck as much as he does, and they are just as effective r62

How was Pete a dick, R48? Amy attacked him from the start of this debate. He has a right to defend himself against her false statements.

I mean no snark but it did seem to me like you could see Amy's anger issues just beneath the surface.

I just starting watching on DVR and the opening did the Democrats proud to have the candidates do the honorable thing by assailing Bloomberg. Buttigieg was his usual shady self going after Sanders instead of Bloomberg.

[Quote] Pete is the only one not screaming like a fucking banshee.

I'm guessing his momma taught him better than to yell at the elderly.

I can't remember where I saw it, sorry, r72. If I think of it, I'll post.

Hahahahaha "you know what that means, Chuck?"

(I'm sure he didn't).

How do you find candidate's full medical records?

Amy is toast. She got too mad and desperate.

25 percent of Nevada's population is Hispanic.

If Bernie shakes that bony finger at me one more time I am going to break it off.

Joe had a face lift and hairline maintenance @Hairclub for Men.

Yes, R77, it was disqualifying.

Everytime I halfway like Warren I go to twitter and see her hateful smug surrogates tweets and I no longer like her .

Amy's mushroom hairdo does her no favors.

I learned tonight that Amy gets rattled easily

Trump and his goons would eat her for breakfast

Liz has really kneecapped Amy and Mike tonight and has generally rebounded from her recent slump.

It’s in Cosmo R72

r88 if you want smug surrogates, look on this board at Pete and Bernie supporters.

Liz will never become the first female president. Or the second .......

Amy is shorter than Pete.

R89, at least she's not wearing clown makeup like last time.

I like Amy. Pretty tough cookie.

I kind of like unhinged Amy. I think she'd haul off and slug Trump in a debate.

Thanks, r92.

R91 A great performance for Liz no question, but will it translate to votes?

I can not understand this moderators accent.

She's mean too.

According to Twitter, Amy and Mike are bombing

Joe and Bernie are maintaining

Liz and Pete are winning

Why is Salma Hayek asking questions? And why is she so pusy? Didn't she marry a billionaire?

Amy almost had a meltdown before.

I don't think she has the temperament to be president.

THANK YOU, r92!

LOOK AT PETE AND HIS LEFTHANDEDNESS! GROSS

[quote] Wow, Warren just came out swinging! She was magnificent. I wanted her very much and have since switched to Bernie because it doesn't look like she can win but maybe she'll make a comeback. I'll still be thrilled with Bernie but I do love Liz so much!

Support them both. I’m for Bernie but love Liz, too.

I hope they team up!

Ask Pete a question, MSNBC panelists.

[quote]DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS CHUCK???

My favorite moment of the night so far!

Ugh, the Latina moderator who can barely speak English. She must be Puerto Rican.

Did Pete step out for a coffee?

What happened to Biden’s eyes?

The moderator who looks like Melania is terrible. Did she used to be an interrogator for the Mexican police or something?

Telemundo lady is annoying Biden seems presidential right now Buttigeg was great

Amy's frau meltdown — "Are you saying I'm DUMB?" — was exceedingly unwise.

Anyone who's had an unstable, emotionally abusive mother got a chill from that. I did.

Pete is trying very hard not to laugh at #CrazyJoe and #CherokeeLiz

Is that moderator the woman from Modern Family? She sounds like her.

Uncle Joe bringin the snark.

Why was he being mean to Chuck?!

Amy doesn't shut up when the moderator's try to move on to someone else.

Chasten's back home masturbating furiously. To whom, though?

Thought it was just me @R113

Does Bloomberg have a Boston accent, or a NY accent?

Nice bitch slap by Biden about Bernie and the NRA.

Just remember, Bernie wouldn't release his taxes in 2016 either.

Anyone else waiting for someone to say fucking instead of fracking?

This may not affect much. Apparently, a majority of the caucus votes may already have already been cast.

Pete's face looks like a cheetah.

Mike loves talking about fracking lol

Pete looks sexy with the 5'oclock shadow!

Yes Pete!!!!! Applause!!!!

r116, that's racist.

What deadline y'all? It ain't real. Pass the goal mining job.

R123 Boston. He's from Medford which is north of the city. It's noticeable but not super pronounced

A sexy sexy cheetah.

The story tonight will be Warren’s comeback and her brutal takedowns of Bloomberg.

And Amy being an emotional flyover frau

I LOVED “are you saying I’m dumb?”

Bish put him on spot and demanded receipts. Doesn’t put up with passive aggressive BS.

r116 is voting for Trump. Calling it now.

The super Tuesday voters are watching this, R127.

Is Amy in a fetal position? I can hear her off camera: I HATE THAT FUCKING GUY!!!!

Did someone say C H I N A ?

Let's be real about the deadline. There is no deadline! - Pete

His face seems extra round tonight.

Liz coming thru for the trans babies of color! YASSSSSS

Buttigieg needs to fix his eyebrows.

[quote]Amy's frau meltdown — "Are you saying I'm DUMB?" — was exceedingly unwise.

You just know she pulls that shit in her everyday life.

This is the pandering I dislike from Warren.

Buttigieg has Nixon's 5 o'clock shadow. Why repeat that very famous mistake? Major unforced error.

COMMUNITIES OF COLOR

I didn't realize how big Pete's head was. Could the American People™ vote for someone with such a large noggin?

The MSNBC moderator is losing her voice.

Just stop R137, you sound stupid.

R137

"Are you saying I'm dumb?" is not exactly something presidential. I don't think most folks are going to see it the way you do.

Warren hasn't stopped pandering to POC since she got on stage.

They moved the aliens to Wright-Patterson in Ohio. All they want to do here is dump nuclear waste.

Randy Rainbow on Twitter:

Pete just pulled out the gay brow. Shit is real.

Babies in the toxic dumps fell flat.

The moving flag projecting behind them is making me SICK

wait, you can't just ask about small business, you have to ask about Hispanic owned Small Businesses and make it a Republican talking point? You fool.

Amy playing the "woman card" isn't quite as desperate is it might seem. Nevada's legislature and Congressional delegation are majority-female.

Joe and Liz and SPANKING these bitches tonight!

Yeah the moving flag is distracting. Just because you can, doesn't mean you should, set designers!

Biden is calling out Bloomberg about redlining

I want to know which one of you fucking clowns is hiding the cure for the #CoronaVirus.

Did the virus come from dirty coal?

Gay brow love it.

The woman wearing the large hoop earrings has a raspy voice. I bet she smells like cigarettes and chardonnay.

LaTHEEno community 😆😂🤣

[quote]This may not affect much. Apparently, a majority of the caucus votes may already have already been cast.

How do you vote early in a caucus?

R130, I agree.

I’m curious to see if any of the female pundits cop to Amy bombing tonight

Biden is debating better. But he dwells on his past.

What did Boot Edge Edge say about Jeye-nuh?

I wish Warren would calm down a bit. Jeez.

Take a drink every time Liz mentions POC or tells a heartbreaking anecdote about a “real” person.

Liz’s last gasp. Her voice is starting to give out...

[quote]How do you vote early in a caucus?

Ranked-choice early ballots.

I lurve how Pete pronounces "Latino" with perfect prnoounciation -- no "la-tee-noh" like everyone else

I know they can't say this, but 90 percent of "entrepreneurs" are assholes and con artists. Please with this shit.

Redlining...

Chuck might get his cock sucked tonight.

Did Bernie need to step out for a checkup with his doctor?

Warren shouldn't do that finger position when speaking.

The five o'clock is good... the Eddie Munster eyebrows could use some work.

Bloomberg is stuttering now...

Okay, Warren. Time to interrupt.

Liz is winning. You can tell in part from the desperate comments here.

How has Warren helped POC in all the years she's been a Senator? Now she can't stop talking about how she's going to help .

This year they instituted early voting r167. Your early vote will just be added to the in person total at a caucus.

R167

Nevada had folks stop by for 4 days this past long weekend and fill out a computer sheet giving their top three choices, rather than attending the actual caucus on Saturday. It's really a ranked-choice voting modified hybrid primary/caucus.

When the FUCK are they going to tackle the horrors of chosen pronoun misuse, an atrocity faced by legions??

Liz, what are you waiting for?

R172, She needs to get herself a beer.

All of that money and Bloomberg can't get a nice set of teeth installed?

Let the bitch have it, Bernie.

Please clap.

Chuck Todd's hair is HORRIBLE. How does MSNBC allow him to come on air looking like that??

R176 I was just thinking that his "Latino" pronunciation is prevention and Im a Ivy Grad Rhodes Scholar too.

Bloomberg should had gotten some debate training

Sorry, not sorry. She was brutally attacked for it in the media. She forgot, big deal. She has every right to call people out for attacking a minor flub and implying she’s unfit for it.

[quote}Bloomberg is stuttering now...

Bloomberg's been stuttering for an hour or more.

Oh damn. Let's just let Bloomberg run the country. He ran a business.

is PRETENTIOUS

Liz, tell us about your days in Oklahoma as a papoose in a weathered teepee.

Biden thinks he's the [italic] Entitled Cunt of the Hour

This shit has me cracking up.

Bernie shut that bitch down.

Will there be a question about the CoronaVirus flu? How will they manage a pandemic?

Bloomberg should have paid for a substitute debater.

Bloomberg just talked about giving people seed.

And I just threw up in my mouth.

QUESTION: Why are so many male movie stars kind of short, with big heads?

(The camera loves a short man with a giant pumpkin head like Pete)

Bloomberg comes off like Dr. Evil. He is so offputting!

I’m liking Amy and Pete right now.

Pete has grown a mustache since the debate began.

Ugh Amy shut up!!!

Amy with the jokes! Emmy host this year!

Go Amy. Mama K is not attacking the front runner, Chodd.

"I believe in capitalism" Oh christ this is silly.

Amy's sooooooo funny.

r201 is a racist.

Shun him gals.

Amy and Pete secretly hate fuck.

No Amy I’m tired of talking about trump. Talk about your plans

Bloomberg just asked amy if he could borrow her stapler.

Ha!

He has to ask Bernie directly now!

Poor Chodd.

Commie pinko Bernie

Amy telling the big truth,,, we are not talking about TRUMP

Yeah r209, I came into this rooting for Bloomberg. Not anymore.

[Quote] Pete has grown a mustache since the debate began.

I like Pete, but even Bieber had a better moustache lol

Good for Amy for bringing up Trump.

Warren did what we needed her to do --take down Bloomberg. But now she's just acting like a child.

r201 is clearly a Bernie Bro, they love repeating Trump's arguments.

R222 Move along Russian Retard.

Damn sanders is killing Bloomberg!

Amy was a cunt tonight.

can they talk about Barr and Trump's pardons this week?

PLEASE?

the debate has 39 min left

Mayor Bloomberg, should you exist? LOL

Bernie and Bloomberg should get their own show about two crusty old friends who trade jabs at each other - Shabbat & The City

How much is Bloomberg paying the audience? Did he buy them all iPhones?

In other words, I'm rich, love me. Wrong party, Mike.

I'm LOVING watching Bloomberg bristle and squirm.

Bernie. How can one man be so goddamned annoying?

Warren has been awfully quiet all of a sudden.

God Chuck Todd what a monumental twat

Sanders is just repeating his stump speeches. We've heard it all before.

Is Joe napping?

Do you think Pete trims "down there?"

I enjoyed this little meta discussion on vast wealth with actual stakeholders. well done.

Pete reminds me for some strange reason of Ferris Bueller.

Pete, starting to get it. good for him.

Pete is cool cucumber

Amy is seething

R234, Id totally watch that. Like the Odd Couple. Pinko and the Billionaire.

[quote]Take a drink every time Liz mentions POC or tells a heartbreaking anecdote about a “real” person.

Personally, I'm impressed she can remember all those little stories. She's also shown tonight that she listens. There have been a few times that she's repeated back what two other candidates just said and then referred back to their words when addressing what they were saying. Her ability to listen and respond to real people is one of the reasons I like her and she shows those qualities on the campaign trail all the time.

Or The Odd Couple R234

Yas!!!!

Bernie body slamming Bloomberg again!

His toe hair, r243?

Pete mixes it up with the other candidates only when he is attacked by them. He's the only one who, when it's his turn, talks about his policies.

Bloomberg looks like he’s about to shit his pants

Liz need a couple Yukon Jack Slammers.

Then she can treat us all to a slow striptease, followed by a lap dance.

I hate Bernie, but I hate his toxic supporters even more.

LET'S TALK ABOUT TRUMP & BARR DISMANTLING OUR JUSTICE SYSTEM

c'mon time to move on

Liz Warren

Liz coming in for the tag team.

LizBern

lmao r234 PERFECT

New campaign ad: "PETE: WHY AREN'T WE DENMARK?"

Bloomberg said the C word.

COMMUNISM!

I am thoroughly entertained.

All politicians tell those folksy stories about real people. Remember “Joe the Plumber”? Liz is not alone in doing that,

Bernie has been turning really red for the last month. I think there's something newly wrong with him health-wise. It's why he did the switch on releasing his health records. He got a bad checkup.

Liz is OWNING this.

Any retard of accusing a Bernie supporter of hating Liz better think again.

I love me some Liz.

Warren....Black and Brown!!!!

Does Bernie have a hump?

Bloomberg is basically like fuck the poor, it’s my money. I want it all

Pocahontas loves All the other brown people.

Liz come thru with the WEALTH TAX once again!!! For trans disabled babies of color!! YASSSSSS!

Don’t forget the trans POC Liz.

J'accuse!

Maybe I'm just seeing something that isn't there, but it seems like Liz is doing an extreme amount of pandering here?

Remember when debates were between only male WASPS?

It wasn't that long ago actually.

Bloomberg got popular because he spent a lot of money on TV ads. Smoke and Mirrors.

Eventually the world was going to have to see behind the curtain.

So far:

1. BERNIE

2. LIZ

3. AMY

THAT'S A CHEAP SHOT!!

Bernie shut down Lester Holt too!

The only thing Warren needs to work on is realizing that it's not only black and brown women who have financial and healthcare problems in this country. Let's not throw out the white, educated women who are a big part of the Democratic party.

But, but, but, the Rich are sacred and must never be questioned ever.

I want Lester Holt to read me the newspaper!

Bernie wins.

He has Vaseline on today. Jane was horny last night.

Liz looks like a retired nun shilling for Catholic Charities.

Bernie is a Commie.

Dial 9-1, then drink every time Liz says "look" or "baby/babies." When you are about to die from alcohol poisoning, dial 1 again.

I have to say, I'm not a Bernie supporter, but "Congratulations Mr. Bloomberg" may have been the best line of the night.

Bernie #1?

Randy Rainbow on Twitter:

Vote for whoever can fix Chuck Todd’s hair.

I wish Bernie would stop comparing us with Western Europe, since our situation is nothing at all like the one that they have.

Bernie is winning and it’s beautiful.

R268, why do you insist on using the word “retard” so often? Are you purposely trying to be offensive or is it pathological?

Socialism for the RICH!

BILLLYOOONNNNAIIIIIIIIIHHHHAS

Bloomberg just BEGGED Amy for that stapler- he said 'name your price'

Bernie is chewing the face off of Doomberg.

Warren needs to increase her support among nonwhite voters r276.

Ughh Bloomberg is recovering

Bloomberg is soooo imperious!

I cannot stop laughing at these foolios. All of them.

Okay, not Pete.

Liz beginning every sentence with “Look!” is an annoying tic.

Her handlers should make her stop.

Bernie's "summer camp."

Wealth tax, Mikey, wealth tax. Do it. Admit it. That's what we need.

Beau!

Go Joe. I don’t support him but I want to hug him right now.

Warren needs a stylist. Her "look" may be going for approachable, but to me it reads lazy. I find it distracting. I know that's a petty fucking thing to focus on, because I am indeed petty. Sorry, carry on...

Good answer, Joe.

What was that between Liz and Bloomberg?

I'll be so mad if they don't talk about Trump's pardons and Barr's despicable behavior in this debate

c'mon

Bernie's turned down his heart monitor so you can't hear it beeping uncontrollably.

This is fucking great television. Horrible for democracy, but entertaining as hell.

You're not fooling anyone r302. Nobody.

Bloomberg making fun of Bernie for being rich

Get this turd off the stage

We should reward work not wealth. That's why I'm disowning by son, Hunter, tonight.

All they do is attack each other or complain about billionaires.

We're going to tax the billionaires and put transgender people of color in charge of Historically Black colleges. Oh. wait. I meant....

Did Biden leave for 30 minutes before the socialist question? Did he speak at all?

Bloomberg is loathsome

Pete loves Bernie.

Liz's arm has got to be TIRED!

Pete’s upper lip stubble is distracting.

R311, that’s not sexy and it’s too intellectual.

I FUCKING HATE THAT GUY!!!!!

Holy fuck look at Bloomberg's teeth... they're brown. Like baked beans. Is he a smoker?

Hey, Chuck Todd, we can tell you're balding.

Actually, it's great for democracy. Actually questioning whether massive income inequality is necessary is one of the few things that is actually good for democracy in all these debates, and all these elections.

Pete attacks Bernie again!

Bernie is tedious. His constant ranting against billionaires is cliche' he is screaming revolution and no one gives a fuck. I think Elizabeth Amy Pete and Joe are doing well. Bernie is a cliche' and Bloomberg was unprepared. He needs to make his case. He wasn't ready and who ever does his debate prep should have anticipated the criticisms about his wealth and his women problem.

Pete dissembling

Sit Eddie Munster down, daddy.

Bernie is getting a little red. Is he okay?

I wonder what Joy will make of all of this on The View tomorrow. I’m sure Meghan will shriek at her about something.

OK MOVE ON

damn it

less than 30 min left

talk about Trump's pardons!

the usual whores and grifters might not actually win this election. That would be a good thing.

Look,

Look,

Look,

Seriously why doesn’t the networks insist Chuck Todd get a new haircut. The comb forward looks terrible

That's what I was thinking, he does not look healthy at all.

Waiting for the mention of POC. SAY IT, LIZ.

Is Trump tweeting?

LOOK!!!

R334 who cares what both of those cows have to say? Joy is firmly for Bloomberg and she will still support him after tonight

Wine caves!

Bernie is the front-runner winning the current debate.

I can’t wait for the clips and compilations!

R323, yes, I'm distracted by how sexy he looks.

Warren is fucking everyone up tonight but Bernie I love it! Warren/Sanders 2020!

Amy is unhinged as pie.

R217 you failed. Liz made the Native American claim to get an advantage over others in hiring. Dishonest at the core.

Liz in ATTACK DOG mode tonight.

Amy is winning me over tonight. I really didn’t like her, but I’m feelin it now.

Amy's gonna blow.

Amy hasn't done anything.

So if I work for Cigna, Aetna, BlueCross, and Bernie wins...

Will I lose my job? I mean, sure I'll have healthcare but will I be fired when my job is made obselete?

Actually, Liz is winning. It's very obvious. She won tonight. Even those that don't like her, know she won.

Big loser, obviously Bloomberg. Not even a question. It's obvious. Amy runner-up loser.

Good god. Amy is hysterical. Does she think this is a PTA meeting?

1. Sanders

2. Warren

3. Klobuchar

4. Biden

5. Pete

I’m not missing anyone, I don’t think.

[quote]Pete’s upper lip stubble is distracting.

Bloomberg has NO upper lip. AT ALL!

[Quote]He wasn't ready and who ever does his debate prep

Bloomberg can hire the best political consultants, but they can't make an entitled super-billionaire take it seriously.

Amy voted for a hundred bills!

R350, like a cornered rat.

Pete and Joe are just chillin and staying on topic.

Warren is a straight up cunt.

Bloomie should run as republican

Look, Lady, if you don't stop waving that fucking had in the air, I'm going to cut off your entire fucking left arm and beat you with it.

Liz can get it.

All of Amy’s answers come across as though she’s gasping for airtime.

What’s going on stage?

Not a Warren fan, but she is doing very well tonight.

R354 You will have a transition plan to help you.

Many blue-collar workers lose there job because reasons and have no transition plans set in place...

Remember: bootstraps!

Warren didn't win this. She got the most snark in but she failed to counterbalance it with solutions.

They need to turn off Amy's mike when she goes on and keeps talking.

Did you guys know I announced my candidacy in a blizzard? I stood outside and everything!

This was Warren's debate and it isn't even close r355. You are delusuonal to claim otherwise.

Amy would be commanding at a PTA meeting or a meeting of the local Hadassah but on a national stage? Uh uh. No fucking way.

I still can't forget Bloomberg's face when the NDA came up. He literally stood silent on stage. Wonder if the tabloids will find that moment.

r370 Warren has outlined her solutions ad nauseum.

People are finally saying the unsayable: the rich have too much. Giving the rich more is not the entire purpose of the economy. the rich have gorged. It is time to disgorge.

R31, someone needs to point out that Bernie is a millionaire with 3 houses worth $500,000 each. Bernie acts as though he's working class when he's anything but.

That NDA moment was pretty brutal.

Pete will be great in 8 years but I can’t vote for someone with no experience to replace someone with no experience. Let’s get shit back on track and then change everything.

Thus is like Monopoly Night at the Manson Family Ranch.

Amy really had a big opportunity just now before the break but she blew it.

That should be R315

Pete and Biden have come across as the most level-headed. The have just raged and tried to get in bon mots at the expense of others.

So far, I haven’t learned a damn thing about any of these people or their policies or plans.

Two people attacking other Dems, the rest defending themselves. Nobody attacking Trump, not even Mike.

Disgraceful.

[quote] Did you guys know I announced my candidacy in a blizzard? I stood outside and everything!

Amy isn't dumb she just had brain freeze.

Warren took a cheap shot at Amy in the last round of questions.

God I hate Chuck Todd.

They ALL look like shit on a shingle. Even Pete. For a ivy golden boy of his age, he's an embarrassment, looks wise. Amy is hideous. The old ones are downright crypt keepers.

I see your point, R376, but they didn't really register. It was all chainsaw. Not sure it helped her. But she went down epic.

Yeah, Warren wins this debate. Bernie second.

I really hope this exposes the nation as to how dislikeable Mike Bloomberg is and always has been.

[quote]Amy is winning me over tonight. I really didn’t like her, but I’m feelin it now.

How does one debate where everyone yells at each other do that?

[quote]So if I work for Cigna, Aetna, BlueCross, and Bernie wins...

The government will contract with the healthcare companies to run the national program just like they do now with Medicare and Medicaid. You won't be losing your job. In fact, you might get to be part of a nice government union.

r380, if Bernie has fatal heart attack while in office, chances are there will someone with no experience running the country.

r385 = Trumpian Concern Troll.

When we have one candidate, then they will shift to attacking Trump.

R373, if the criteria is cunty attacks and bald pandering. In that case, yes, she did win.

I’ll enjoy seeing Pete and Andrew Yang as election commentators for CNN. Pete’s side eye at Rick “Fuckface” Santorum alone will be amusing.

Amy is all about frustration. She can't spit it out, whatever it is.

Bloomberg openly sneering at Pete right now. On live TV. Oops.

21 minutes!

ASK ABOUT THE PARDONS

bring attention to this come the fuck on moderators

We get it, R391, we get it.

I have a feeling Bloomberg didn't do enough debate prep because he thought he had it all in the bag. When you get that rich you aren't surrounded by people who are going to tell you you're wrong.

R375, I liked it when he cast his gaze down at Sanders' mention of Dubya.

r378, somebody did.

Bloomberg is an evil piece of shit.

The “If Bernie has a heart attack” fetish retards are being noted.

Give me a Break, Joe. You're as crooked as Trump's duck.

For the first time I could actually hear Biden say things that were substantial

Why do we leave policies to the wills and whims of one person?

Why don't we get a bunch of economic, medical, political and legal panel forums together to hash this out and look at the research and vote for the best policy of the country.

We have the best universities, why not use the professors that work there?

it drives me nuts that federal judges are hardly ever a concern for moderators in a Democratic debate. It always comes up for repubs

it should be a priority for Democrats

well, you certainly didn't hear what Pete, or Biden, or Amy, or Mike actually care about r385. You might even wonder what they really, deep down care about, other than slogans and being "acceptable."

I'm proud of him tonight. I feel like I didn't waste my time in New Hampshire.

R387, she also did a passive-aggressive thing by “defending” Amy earlier. Lady, Amy doesn’t need you rushing to her defense because she has the same reproductive organs that you do. She can handle herself.

It was just a grab for mic time.

My opinion on experience, The President doesn't run the government, Cabinet secretaries do, what you want is a smart person with good judgement. The President doesn't even run the White House he has a chief of staff for that.

UGH I know it's a Bernie attack on Pete but every time Pete draws his upper lip back and exposes his two front teeth, he does look ratlike.

Elizbeth "I've got a plan for black and brown people" Warren.

Pete is rocking it tonight

Ah oh here comes the staple

I think that's the first time Joe's ever said he wasn't out of time.

Death Stare of Amy

I had no idea Joe said that he hoped Mitch McConnell would be re-elected.

I did debate in high school and college. This was not a debate. In this reality show world of debates, you all seem to think that Liz Warren won. What we witnessed tonight was Real Housewives not a substantive debate on the issues. It's a shame that it has come to this.

Why's this Lathino lady attacking Amy?

let's talk about the pardons! Why wasn't that 1 of the first questions? insane

we actually do that all the time r409, then we decide to whore for the rich and powerful. It's called government and it is truly sickening, because the actual policies for 50 years turn out to be whoring for the rich. Maybe we should stop that shit. Try something else, just for the fucking novelty of it.

“Real person” anecdote time!

Liz is mad you stole her gambit, Amy.

Pete's the only one who hasn't lost his temper.

Then say that. Don’t dismiss it as trivial,pursuit. The President of Mexico is no trivial.

Here we go with the “What are YOU going to do for de eemigrants?” Took longer than I thought.

R416 I don't think the usual Warren trolling works anymore.

They love to pit Pete and Amy against each other.

Warren slouches like Miz Lindzey.

Jesus christ the Latina moderator can barely speak fucking English.

Where do they get this stuff. A 99yo Mexican Transgender War Veteran who was a Dream at Night

uh oh Buttigieg goin for Klobuchar again

she's gonna blow lol

Absolutely, R424.

Pete coming for Amy AGAIN?!??

But that's DL, R422. The diva fetish. I agree with your point.

Pete knows he can push her buttons.

I'm guessing hate fuck is on tonight between Peter and Amy.

Dang, Pete is dragging Klobachar tonight

Wait for it, Amy's going to say something shitty.

Get that brown vote Pete!

Amy is a BITCH.

She's gonna kill him!

Pete “I did the most for the immigrants, not you!”

Uh oh Pete poking the bear

Amy’s head is going to explode

Pete making the kill shot. Cold blooded. I love it.

OOoh what is she writing furiously?

Me thinking about Bernie tonight....

The Mexican lady and Pete really have it out for Amy

Pete is channeling Miranda Priestly tonight.

I can't stand the Telemundo lady. "Our next question is for Senator Klobu-char, Senator..Churros or plátanos?"

Warren/Buttigieg 2020

So Amy supported 1/3 of Trumps judges?

This will be a major fail if they don't talk about the pardons and Barr tonight

this is a fucking national emergency. Trump and Barr are doing so much damage to our justice system. Let's hear all the candidates slam him.

It's so clear Amy resents THE FUCK out of Pete. I don't know why but she does and I cannot imagine for a second that if he becomes the nominee that she'd campaign for him.

Klobachar is about to smack Pete

Pete is being tough tonight.

Amy is such a fucking triggered bitch

I thought there for a second that Amy was going to throw her notepad at Pete.

Pete better check his brakes tonight, Amy wants to KILL him

R422, agreed. This is not how a debate should be conducted. Bitches criticizing me for saying it, but nothing substantial is being said. It’s like a celebrity roast or wrestling match.

Amy: “We can’t all be as perfect as you!”

That’s presidential behavior in reaction to criticism??

[quote]Why don't we get a bunch of economic, medical, political and legal panel forums together to hash this out and look at the research and vote for the best policy of the country.

Where do you think the candidates get their policy proposals from? There's a huge amount of input from policy wonks. Elizabeth Warren in particular is well known for drawing on top-level research.

Amy is every passive-aggressive soccer mom forcing Mary Kay Cosmetics on her sad fellow book club members.

Tell em Amy!

Amy is trembling.

Bernie look like his going to keel over any second..I like Pete!

If Amy had a stapler, it would be in Pete's head right now

She's gonna cry.

Amy is going to have a nervous breakdown.

[Quote]They love to pit Pete and Amy against each other.

Well they hate each other, so duh.

Stapler incoming Pete!

Get him Amy!

She can barely control herself.

Pete's trying to trigger Amy because she gets clearly pissed and angry when she's confronted directly.

SHAKE AND BAKE!!!

Did I mention I've been in the arena?

Pete just pulled a Beto with that pandering Spanish

There’s the offensive Bernie troll at R406, throwing retard around again.

YOU'VE MEMORIZED A BUNCH OF TALKING POINTS!

sorry, but you are either a fool or a paid hack, r422. You clearly saw with Warren tonight somebody who gave a fuck about something other than making the rich happier. Sorry if you couldn't see that. Maybe your prep school failed you in that regard.

What happened to Chuck’s HAIR?!

Bully Pete😕

You ain't done shit Pete!

Pete, DUCK!

DUCK!!!!

[quote]This will be a major fail if they don't talk about the pardons and Barr tonight

What are they going to say? You know they all agree. It's a debate, not news commentary

The password is: "arena"

omg Todd just said they're at the end

ARE THEY NOT GOING TO FUCKING DISCUSS TRUMP, BARR AND THE PARDONS/INVESTIGATIONS?

this is maddening

what the hell is wrong with them?

Dang, Klobachar is about to punch Pete

Klobuchar sucks.

OMG Chuck Todds hair!!

"I wish everyone were as perfect as YOU, Pete" = another abusive bitch move.

Not presidential.

Amy needs to go away for a long rest and get treatment for her anger issues. She'll have a happier life.

Pete just ended her candidacy -- she sounds like a bitch and she is not handling criticism well

R487 it would be good to hear what they think should be done about it

Go Bernie!

Speak truth as always.

Fucking Pete brought his A game tonight.

Amy will not be shaking Pete’s hand tonight

She’ll run to hug Liz, though

This really needed to be three hours.

Amy's about to yell at Pete: YOU"RE GOING TO MAKE ME CRY!!!!

Amy "I know Ted Kennedy and Pete, you are no Ted Kennedy".

Oh brother. “Paid shill” accusations.

That’s your punishment for not agreeing with r482’s views.

SUPAHDELLIGITS

Pete was mean to a girl!!!

I like bitch Amy.

Tom Nichols @RadioFreeTom

This Telemundo moderator is the most annoying person in the room, except maybe for Bernie.

Amy would be a great Twitter president. Snarky!

We get it you wanted them to discuss the pardons, but that is a subject they will all agree on, so I am not sure what there is to discuss.

Amy will be crying in her ACOA meeting tomorrow.

Buttigieg with his underhanded attacks on Sanders and Klobuchar lost his nice guy image, which was the only thing he had going for him.

Does Amy have a gay husband or son? Why does she hate Pete so much?

Bernie keeps hobbling offstage during commercials!

Buttigieg with his underhanded attacks on Sanders and Klobuchar lost his nice guy image, which was the only thing he had going for him.

Wow Amy was so bitchy. What a cunt

Amy stood up to Pete.

Amy is seething. She can barely contain herself. I now totally believe everything said about her temper.

The Telemundo reporter can barely speak English. Why couldn't they find someone who is fluent in both languages?

I HAVE BEEN IN THE ARENA

Nobody's shaking hands tonight. Next stop, the burn unit. What a shitshow.

nonsense, r502. I allow for prep school indoctrination.

If you listen carefully Warren's plan is a house of cards.

Everything she proposes relies on bills that are unlikely to pass-- campaign finance reform, etc.

She is someone you keep as an advisor and listen to some of her ideas and make them saleable.

But she's way more of a train wreck than Bernie

I saw that too, r512. He looked almost doubled over. Yikes.

R510, Oh give me a break. They said the same thing about him in october and he surged after that debate.

R422 woke up yesterday and discovered the brand new information that televised political debates have a lot of theater to it and they are not a substantial discussion on the issues.

In other news, water is wet.

Pete IS looking pretty smarmy the second half. He needs to dial it back a bit.

Amy isn’t crying. She is a FIERCE bitch, and Pete is obviously worried about her surge.

Can you imagine Fox grilling GOP candidates like this lol

Total shitshow, r519

Pete is really killing it tonight! Amy go home. Bern, sit down.

Also, you and I both know Warren won tonight and Bloomberg lost. Everyone who saw this knows that.

Amy and Pete both looked petty but, Pete “won” that. Amy comes across as the lunatic she is.

I would have understood her Spanish better.

I feel like watching a high school debate. Joe is so calm ❤️❤️

“I wish everyone were as perfect as you, Pete.” -Klobuchar. Ooooo

Amy should make sure the cameras catch her shaking Pete's hand at the end.

He's coming for her because she's his biggest obstacle to the top as the main moderate.

You're right, R498, but she will be shaking.

The big thing I learned tonight was how much pee my bladder can hold.

GO Warren! Go Sanders!

Yes, Pete is hitting back and coming up strong. Go Pete!

If Amy called Pete a factoid robot I would just die!

Yes, Pete is hitting back and coming up strong. Go Pete!

I imagine Liz turned Every Karen In America off with her constant hand waving and insisting that she needs to talk to the manager

THey don't like seeing themselves reflected.

Pete could (theoretically) be Biden's VP, so spare him. But he could NEVER be Amy's VP, so KILL her on stage.

I felt a tingle at the mention of “Warren/Buttigieg 2020” upthread

I like the sound of that

These Doomberg ads are nauseating. Sad, too, considering his debate performance.

He’s been decimated by all candidates involved.

For Pete’s sake, he was even thrashed by Biden. He’s over.

R508 well they discussed climate change which they mostly agree on. They might have slightly different plans but they're on the same page in contrast to the repub's pollution plans

what Trump and Barr are doing is very destructive and it's a major disservice not to discuss it

This has been one of the most entertaining political threads I've joined in. Time for bed - midnight in my zone.

[quote]Bernie keeps hobbling offstage during commercials!

That's because he ordered the soup. Its getting cold.

The picture pinned to Amy's mirror while she's drawing her eyebrows.

r521 oh please. You could say that about every candidate's plans. Warren shows she knows how to work within the government (and has shown). Campaigns at this stage are about proposing what they WANT to do. It doesn't mean they expect to get them all done in the first 100 days. You're just repeating talking points.

Elizabeth only "won" because she came off as less shrill than Amy.

Amy is really not doing well tonight. She looks flustered and dumb with her lame excuse about not knowing the name of our nearest countries President. The Usbebeky, bekky, bekkystan line doesnt work here.

“I wish everyone were as perfect as you, Pete.” -Klobuchar.

Good chance she turns people off and sounds like a pretty bitch. And Trump would have eviscerated her with that line "They certainly do."

Amy seems like the type who keeps an Enemies List

talking about Trump's pardons is something Democrats can unite behind

Funny how Vegas changes people.

You're seeing who these people really are tonight.

Sanders- Buttigieg 2000

Go Amy!

[quote] If Amy called Pete a factoid robot I would just die!

Loved it!

I felt a rush.

- Amy’s Hair

Pete doesn't need a nice guy image, r513, he needs to toughen the f up to go head to head with El Trumpino, if it comes to that.

The Orange One will pull no punches this fall. They need a tough ass or a bitch (hello, Amy) to get up on him. And preferably someone tallish and same height as Trump - yes this matters folks.

What a ridiculous question from Chuck Todd, straining to seem important.

What happens in Vegas doesn't necessarily stay in Vegas.

What the fuck?! "I'm not asking for any money." What a smug arrogant thing to say, Mike Bloomberg!

Bloomberg is so detached.

Stick a fork in Bloomberg.

Oh snap.

Will there be a group photo?

Bloomberg too clinical.

Pete sucks dick.

He will suck some tonight. 😘

A sanders/Pete ticket is actually looking pretty good after tonight. They compliment each other well and each make up for the other ones shortcomings.

And yeah, this whole "you can't pass this" thing is bullshit. You don't know what kind of Congress the next president will have. You never know. All you can find out in their campaigns is what they might actually care about and what direction they want to move in.

Bloomberg is terrible and not likeable

Pete's the MAN !

I like that Bloomberg doesn’t try to be lovable, though. Keeps it real.

Warren's got a "plan" for everything but few of those plans are realistic

Bernie has no plans and his supporters aren't realistic

Liz set the tone tonight with HORSE FACED LESBIANS!

There will be no ticket of two white guys, even if one of them is gay.

I grew up fighting on the reservation.

Another emotional anecdote. Struggle, fight, save, join, poor, POC!!!!!!

Liz and Pete did great tonight but the pundits will only want to talk about Liz and Bloomberg

There's something very icky about a 70 year old woman calling her father "daddy".

I miss Marianne

I’d be proud to have a president who gave his husband a bj in the lincoln bedroom

[quote]And yeah, this whole "you can't pass this" thing is bullshit. You don't know what kind of Congress the next president will have. You never know. All you can find out in their campaigns is what they might actually care about and what direction they want to move in.

You're not going to have more than a few vote majority in the Senate. And with a large Majority in the House now, a lot of the proposals wouldn't past.

So disappointed in Bloomberg. No connection at all.

R569, I would vote for a Sanders / Buttageig ticket.

Protesting

[quote]A sanders/Pete ticket is actually looking pretty good after tonight.

Bernie doesn't want someone who doesn't believe and Pete won't want to be tainted by the politics of Bernie.

[quote]I’d be proud to have a president who gave his husband a bj in the lincoln bedroom

Ahem.

What are they saying?

Joe’s face. Priceless.

Hecklers!!

This debate had everything!!

What's the commotion?

Oh fuck, the Woke have Awakened.

I’m sensing a manufactured protest...

Hm.

Referring to your male parent as "daddy" is folksy and midwestern. Referring to that man as "father" is cold and northeastern.

Warren has too many plans

What are these women screaming?

If you're going to yell in protest, make sure we can understand what the fuck you're yelling

r583 Obama got the Affordable Care Act passed with a few votes. Stop pretending like nothing can actually happen.

I never can understand what the hecklers are saying. They sound like martians.

What are they shouting at Biden?

Start part 3!

Sorry Liz, but Indians don't have cars. They ride horses.

Was that nonbinaries?

LOL Bernie told him to just talk.

new thread

Jesus Fucking Christ.

These are the people we have to choose from??

We are so fucked. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

We better win the fucking Senate.

Scranton again. Ugh.

[quote]Stick a fork in Bloomberg

I'd love to. Now, where's that idiot assistant of mine?

Mike looked at someone offstage and made the "slice their throats" motion with his hand when he heard the protesters

Why is Biden talking like an auctioneer on Hee-Haw?

The anti-Warren trolls on this thread are really tiresome. Basically "hurr durr Pocahontas too many plans shrill woman". Definitely some paid shills active here.

Oh, jesus fuck, so now dingbats are mad that Warren doesn't want to just wing it every day like the asshole in there now? Really?

Wow using your closing statement to attack another candidate, Joe? No bueno.

R587 A National Unity coalition. Bernie-Pete breaking the usual political rules to defeat the Dictator.

Warren got an aerobic workout tonight waving her arm around.

Bloomberg is such a disappointment in person.

And Bernie is full of shit with the lake house and Bernie Bros are Russian Bots

OLA GAH KEY

[quote] Obama got the Affordable Care Act passed with a few votes. Stop pretending like nothing can actually happen.

but that wasn't what Obama wanted, it was actually closer to Hillary's proposal it was what he was forced to accept.

People sleep out on the street because our mental health care system sucks Bernie. Not because billionaires.

Amy refused to shake Pete’s hand. Walked around him. She really hates him.

Lester Holt looks more like a white man than most white men

Post link to part 3 fast!

Liz lost my support tonight. I expected so much more than the boorish behavior I witnessed in this debate.

Part 3 it was previously posted above

Biden might actually get a boost out of this debate given that everyone was after someone else.

So that’s Bloomberg’s longtime ‘partner’ next to him onstage. She towers over him, lol.

r620, Amy is a bitch who does not have the temperament to be president. She proved that tonight.

Back to the hecklers, I thought I heard the women saying something about "power to the people." That's all I got, unfortunately.

[quote]Referring to your male parent as "daddy" is folksy and midwestern. Referring to that man as "father" is cold and northeastern.

Not really, people in the south west, north west, also say father. It's a proper term for an adult to refer to their parent. I think the original post is right, it's kind of creepy for an older woman to refer to him as daddy. It's exactly what you would think Ivanka saying.

Did anyone notice Pete sort of turned to shake hands with Amy and she just stormed off the stage? Thin skin much?
