Dem Debate -- July 31 -- OFFICIAL Comment and Opinion Thread.

[XponentialChaos]

Here's how I personally have them so far.

Bernie: Good
Warren: Good
Biden: Good
Kamala: Good
Castro: Good
Buttigieg: Good
Gabbard: Good
Ryan: Good
Bennet: Good

Gillibrand: Decent
Inslee: Decent
Yang: Decent

Klobuchar: No
Booker: No
De Blasio: No
Hickenlooper: No
Bullock: No
Delaney: Bad
Beto: Bad
Swalwell: Terrible
Williamson: Terrible

Time to start kicking people off the stage.

Help me understand your ranking. What is it that you like about the ones that you have ranked good? What specifically didn't you like about Delaney?

Swalwell is no longer running. He dropped out.

Their ideas and the way they present their ideas on the debate stage.

Delaney was obliterated by Elizabeth Warren at the last debate.

Yang didn't answer the question about Biden being the best chance too take out Trump.

With this gaggle of clowns Trump will win by a landslide no matter who the Moon Bats chose.

I honestly don't understand how you can be so confident with his approval rating.

You are aware that its higher than the last guys was at this point?

I was thinking of their average rating, but sure, it's fair to compare where he currently is compared to where Obama was at this point.

I think it's fair to say that there was a backlash against Obama going into his second term. At least comparing to the first term, yes? If I remember correctly, the Dems also lost the House and the Senate in that time.

There was a 4.5 million vote swing against Obama going from 2008 to the 2012 presidential election. Can Trump's numbers withstand that kind of swing?

Why would there be a swing like that against Trump?
He has been exactly as he promised he would be.

Look at the 2018 election.

Look at the 2018 election.

Exactly -
President Trump had a fantastic 1st Midterm
Gained Seats in the Senate
Lost about the same number of House seats as there were NeverTrumpers that retired.

Conversely -
Obama lost 63 House seats in his first midterm
Clinton lost 52 in his.

28 Republicans retired and 8 Democrats retired in the House. That's a net difference of 20. Republicans lost 41 seats.

The popular vote went to the Democrats by 8.6%.

Sure, that election was fantastic for Republicans.

Trust me -
It was a win for Republicans even though President Trump was not on the ballot.
When his name returns to the ballot in 2020 - he will have very long coattails.
(there is no nationwide popular vote for any elected position)

Well then we're in agreement that we would both love to see the next election turn out to be just like the last one.

Democrats flood their states with foreign nationals, enable them to vote, then claim they win the popular vote.

If a Democrat tells you foreign nationals who come and go unchecked and unregulated at will, receiving healthcare and welfare paid for by Americans, don't vote for Democrats who aid and abet them, they are lying to your face.

Tulsi Gabbard is a star. Why are the Democrats not running her as their #1?

They want a lunatic

Which lunatic do you think they will choose?

Probably Biden.

You are pro right.
Although he seems less and less interested with every speaking engagement and last night’s debate was rough. He might drop out.

Everything was about Biden.
He won last night's debate.
He won't drop out .
He would have beaten Trump in 2016
Gabbard is the one I fear the most, luckily she can't win her primary.

Tulsi will likely be his running mate if he wins the nomination and she came to his aid last night. The rest of your post is pure conjecture.

One where the Republicans did much better than history would have dictated.
Yes.

Trump, in the American people's name, is separating children from their families.

I disagree with you - I don’t see anyway last night could be called a win for Biden.

You fear because you think in a head to head that she could beat Trump?

 

[basquebromance]

Booker essentially said to Biden on the immigration debate: you cant take credit for everything thats good in the Obama administration, and then suddenly say you dont wanna take credit for what folks dont like about the Trump administration

Can you show where any law enforcement policy does not separate children from a parent when the parent is caught performing an illegal act?

The law, as it stands, to enter the country across the border not at a point of entry is illegal. Being held pending that charge or while charged, of course children will be separated.

There would need to be a law change - to decriminalize the act.

No one can beat Trump
She would probably help some down the ticket races as far as turnout
