Warren goes with the purple jacket tonight. Julian is shorter than I realized. #DemDebate

Klobuchar used an entire shelf of dry shampoo to poof that hair.

Beto coming with the Spanish and significantly over time. Mayor Pete gotta drop the Dutch tomorrow. #DemDebate

Question: What is your thought about Income Equality?

Tulsi: I’m a vet.

#DemDebate

Wait. When did McDonalds start serving hash? Who is this guy? #DemDebate

I’m not complaining, but why do the questions keep coming back to Elizabeth Warren? She’s like the spoke in the middle of the wheel. Will they all have this chance? #DemDebate

“All foam, no beer.” Relatable from Klobuchar. #DemDebate

DeBlasio interrupts and jumps on Beto. And then the dude on the other end chimes in. Gloves are coming off early. #DemDebate

“I don’t only believe in reproductive freedom, I also believe in reproductive justice. And let’s not forget about the trans community.” YES @JulianCastro!!! #DemDebate

“I’m the only candidate on the stage that has advanced the ball on this issue.”

Mini Me: Who is that guy?

Me: He’s standing near the end so...

#DemDebate

That was Julian’s moment to speak Spanish about the immigration policy and he didn’t. He was the first to announce a comprehensive plan. “Do not criminalize desperation.” Then Booker came with a sentence or two in Spanish. #DemDebate

Diaz Balart asked a question of Beto in Spanish. He responds in kind. Castro interjects because Beto doesn’t support repeal of Section 1325. #DemDebate

“Gun violence is a national health emergency in this country.”
~Warren, not *exactly* answering the question about guns already in Americans’ hands. #DemDebate

Cory taking every single opportunity to let y’all know he lives in a low income community.

Castro mentions Parkland survivors, who is in favor of commonsense gun reform.
#DemDebate

DeBlasio drops that he is the only one on the stage raising a Black son and the interactions he may have with cops. I.... #DemDebate

Chuck Todd’s questions are really horrible. It’s quite obvious when he’s sitting next to Maddow.

Castro drops that his first stop after announcing his candidacy wasn’t Iowa or Pennsylvania, but Puerto Rico. #DemDebate

Tulsi sounds super wooden about LGBT+ issues. Cory swoops in and discusses Black Trans folks. Klobuchar talks about economic opportunity for all when asked about her civil rights work. #DemDebate

Castro says their names: Eric Garner, Tamir Rice, Sandra Bland, in addition to Dylan Roof. #DemDebate

Tim Ryan is being bested by Tulsi and chile.... he gotta just drop out during commercial break. #DemDebate

Yang said I don't care about convention, I'm coming relaxed. NO TIE! #DemDebate

Kamala Harris coming out SWANGIN. #DemDebate2

"Trump is a pathological liar and a racist and he lied to the American people during the campaign." ~Bernie .

Awaiting the Trump tweet in 3...2.... #DemDebate2

Gillibrand ensuring that she gets a word in edgewise. It didn't seem on topic, but I quibble. #DemDebate2

Swalwell came straight at Biden's neck! #PassTheTorch #DemDebate2

Kamala in that rough spot of being in the middle because she's popular (in the polls for this debate) but having to stand next to Bernie.

"America doesn't want to witness a food fight. They want to know how we're going to put food on the table." ETHER. #DemDebate2

Girl.... WHUT?! #DemDebate2

Harris did a really good job there of being respectful to Biden but saying she disagreed with the Obama/Biden Administration with respect to deportation of someone who had committed no crime. #DemDebate2

Oooooooooo... Yang said a swearrrrrrr..... #DemDebate2

Mayor Pete being incredibly honest here about police violence in his city. It's smart. He calls out systemic racism. #DemDebate2
