2020 Democratic Debates Watch Thread

[Celery Man 21,097]

Bennet can't say malarkey because it has too many syllables

[bolverk 30,323]

I'd like to add that Biden's defense of Obamacare being completely sufficient is indefensible.

Bennett is the worst person on this stage, and this stage includes Biden.

Just turn off his microphone 

[Anastasis 23,717]

Couldn’t hear over the kids. Did Biden just say that we should jail insurance company execs for the opioid epidemic? Please tell me I misheard that. 

[AbeFroman 3,113]

So in summary:   Your plan sucks, my plan is the best.  Fuck you and fuck you and fuck you

He did. 
 

Damn, I'm out of rep already or I'd be hitting a couple more on this page.

That is correct.

Aren’t we already trying to do that? (Seriously)

[Anastasis 23,717]

Bennet is fucking terrible. 

[Dbeasy 15,593]

Yang gets it on healthcare. Tying healthcare to employment is regarded for the business, the employee, and especially the unemployed.

Today, however, companies are able to bargain for much better healthcare prices vs and individual. Just go looks at today’s rates between the two. Individuals pay wayyy more. Disassociating healthcare from companies needs to address this issue.

I think you heard that right but I was too busy pontificating to be sure.

[Dbeasy 15,593]

Yang would win if we actually gave a shit about elected a smart person with good ideas instead of a personality contest.

That’s no fun.

Castro isn’t going to win this thing but he’s going to come out much better than he started. 

[TexArcher 39,069]

Why does Michael Bennet exist?

[SimonBolivar 11,064]

Did Bennett buy CNN too?

Disassociating Health care from health insurance companies will help.

I swear Bennet is like when you used to play a 45 on 33.  Just sounds fucked up.

[Dbeasy 15,593]

Why does Michael Bennet exist?

To be a cautionary tale for all of us.

You heard right.  These idiots don’t understand the health care system in this country and who is responsible for what.  I guess we can make the insurance companies the big bad boogey man in this issue (they are part of it but not the sole reason health care costs are so high) saying we get rid of insurance companies and everything will be wonderful with our health care is like Trump telling people if we stop the immigrants coming to our country then they won’t take all of the good jobs.

[AustinHorn 63]

Crowd getting uppity 

[SimonBolivar 11,064]

Free Hat!

[bad_teammate 13,519]

Sorry. I am out of rep but will try to circle back.

There is no scenario in our future where United Healthcare and Aetna go away. Will never never happen. Unicorns.

Was about to call for a welfare check on you with Kamala kicking ass. 

[Loch Ness Monster 3,533]

I like this Yang guy. He needs more time.

[Hugo Stiglitz 23,367]

CNN sucks so much ass. 

[SimonBolivar 11,064]

Castro is nails and he has a stunt double. He can be in two places at once it's like two presidents for the price of one.

[bad_teammate 13,519]

Julian spent 8 years smiling as mass deportations and family detention happened because it benefited him politically

Now he's "learned"

Now he has "guts"?

Fuck off

[Doc Sam Beckett 5,906]

Castro is a fucking badass. 

[Neonmoon 38,130]

Immigration is an emotional point maker for both parties yet no one discusses the logistical nightmare of immigration 

[leaf 718]

Castro forgot to use the hair color on his sideburns

[bad_teammate 13,519]

If you think Julian Castro actually gives a fuck you're a sap

[Loch Ness Monster 3,533]

Biden sounds old, looks old

[SameSame 1,752]

Tulsi, My girl my girl, don't lie to me

Medicare for All is what's going to happen. It's going to be what people 65 and older have now. There is a place for private insurance companies in the current Medicare system.

This isn't hard.

Tulsi’s Sunscreen ...

That is absolutely the truth.  There are other ways to control costs and the government can be involved in leading the way.  I love how Harris is so upset at Big Pharma and Insurance making profit off of sick people but (no offense intended for this next part) but there are plenty of hospital officials and doctors making a shit ton off of sick people but no one on this stage has the balls to call that out.

[Neonmoon 38,130]

I actually think Yang is really smart

[Dbeasy 15,593]

Corey scores again.
