In for more of the cringiest clownfest of the year

[isingmodel]

I know he has no chance, but I'd still like to see Yang given a better opportunity to speak than last time

[Procta]

lets get it on

[Sandmang27]

I hope they do the debate in English this time

[chaunce54]

I don't know. I have some paint drying that needs to be watched.

[Procta]

Are you suggesting debates are fair?

They're all about the hosting entity pushing the candidates they want by favoring them with questions and speaking time.

[Mumra]

debate or meeting on why straight white men are the sole source of all of Earth's evil and need to be stopped?

[Retoaded]

I know he has no chance, but I'd still like to see Yang given a better opportunity to speak than last time

"We have to stop running around after Trump's tweets," says 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang on the President's comments toward Rep. Elijah Cummings' Baltimore district. "He is who he is. We have to solve the problems on the ground that got him elected." pic.twitter.com/xs9IEwSEc3

Yang with more common sense then the rest of them put together with just that one statement.

[kcadrenalin]

Debate pre-summary:

Orange man racist.
Free stuff.
Open Borders.

[Mumra]

but then he goes on about universal basic income and all credibility is lost. lol

he's also right sorta. if the DNC had any platform to run on besides free stuff for everyone. they just don't have anything to run on at all.

[Aesthetical]

lol @ the sheep being entertained by the dog and pony show

I wonder if Marianne Williamson will get all the other candidates to touch them while apologizing for being white?



All but the most cucked leftists here must be dreading tonight, it's yet another chance to make their candidates unelectable with insane pandering quotes

[Tamorlane]

if the DNC had any platform to run on besides free stuff for everyone. they just don't have anything to run on at all.

-rebuild the middle class
-invest in infrastructure and jobs, not wars
-bring jobs back to America (Bernie Sanders is the strongest candidate by far for fair trade, including Trump)
-economic equality
-a living wage to combat inflation (which is out of the peasantry's control)
-invest in education, make America top ranking for standardized test scores
-invest in the family (children, parents, seniors)
-better regulation to fight corruption and environmental damage
-political and electoral reform
-science and technology (republicans are anti-science, want to teach creationism in schools)
-invest in renewable energy (republicans are bought and paid for by big industry)
-healthcare for all
-go back to being tough on America's adversaries and rebuild diplomatic relationships with America's proven allies (NATO)

Hey at least Yang has thought out how to pay for his proposals, which is more than can be said for anyone else, ya know? I am not a UBI guy at all, but I do see some good stuff in there...replacing the administration of umpteen thousand government welfare programs with just cutting someone a check...makes a lot of sense. The VAT makes SOME sense. I still don't see his numbers working. The one thing it would be good for is the family. Stay at home moms can be stay at home moms again. Those of us who are responsible who wonder if we can afford a kid, may be more inclined to have that kid. A kid that will be a contributor to society, not a leach.

Ideally, assuming it works and pays for itself. Which of course that "ideally" is not "reality".

Glancing at your list, the top 3 are Trump platforms too lol. In other words, chit that every politician says.

He also wants to increase the salary of congressmen and women and the president so they're less likely to take money from special interests. And his boyfriend Tucker Carlson also thinks it's a great idea. He thought he could run on a unique issue, no one cares about automation yet. When it becomes more prevalent, other politicians will address it and Yang will disappear even further into the oblivion.

[PenorBrahNoHomo]

Why are there so many candidates? Is that normal?

[Retoaded]

Why are there so many candidates? Is that normal?

The last two cycles with Trump vs. 15 (R) and these 15-20 (D) have been an anomoly. Usually its 2-3 strong candidates and the rest stay out of the way. Not sure if this is permanent going forward, or goes back to normal soon.

i.e. next election someone like Nikki Haley runs for the (R) nomination, she probably will not have much competition.

[DeshaunWatson]

We need Marianne to get a lot of TV time tonight. She is helping the GOP big time with her hippie talk. Let’s all continue to donate to her campaign after this chit show

[Tamorlane]

Glancing at your list, the top 3 are Trump platforms too lol. In other words, chit that every politician says.

-Trump hasn't rebuilt the middle class, it is on a continuous decline for the past forty years. His tax cuts for the wealthy didn't help.

Fact check on Trump's middle-class tax miracle (spoiler, it isn’t)
https://business.financialpost.com/n...avours-wealthy


-Trump hasn't significantly invested in infrastructure or gov-created jobs (republicans: "let the market handle it")

Trump falls short on infrastructure after promising to build roads, bridges and consensus
https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...=.5e935501592a


-Bring jobs back to America

An independent who has a lifelong record of being anti-free trade agreements and 100% fair trade to protect American workers and families

vs

this:



Trump's done some things, but they haven't been as successful as if Sanders (a democrat) were at the helm.

Sanders is a man of the people, Trump is a capitalist who likes free trade agreements because it helps his businesses get cheap labor. They don't believe in giving Americans jobs if they can pay someone else next to nothing for inferior work. Look at Trump's presidential store, something like 90% of all merchandise is made around the world so they can squeeze as much profit out of it as they can. We're talking mugs with the American flag or presidential seal on them made in China.

[Mumra]

-rebuild the middle class
-invest in infrastructure and jobs, not wars
-bring jobs back to America (Bernie Sanders is the strongest candidate by far for fair trade, including Trump)
-economic equality
things all politicians say.

-a living wage to combat inflation (which is out of the peasantry's control)get a better job
-invest in education, make America top ranking for standardized test scores stop Federally backing student loans. cost went through the roof when that happened
-invest in the family (children, parents, seniors) wtf does that even mean
-better regulation to fight corruption and environmental damage over regulation breeds gov't corruption. less regulation with actual enforcement
-political and electoral reformanother thing all politicians say.
-science and technology (republicans are anti-science, want to teach creationism in schools) "there are more than 2 genders" that's anti-science.
-invest in renewable energy (republicans are bought and paid for by big industry) any liberals aren't? lol. make renewable energy affordable and people will use it
-healthcare for all you're going to have to steal from people to do that. it's not a reasonable idea.
-go back to being tough on America's adversaries and rebuild diplomatic relationships with America's proven allies (NATO) folks can pull their weight for once that'd be nice. but otherwise I'm all for for backing up talk.

fify

Why does kneeling upset you so much? Do we need to post trigger warnings again for you delicate little flowers?

[ThatGuy950]

Honk honk

[chaunce54]

Sorry fellas, but this whole thing is pointless anyway. The globalist puppet masters have already chosen Biden to be the candidate.

Where did you get the sense that it upsets me by calling out the best the candidate could invite were these patriots
