The candidates for the Democratic nomination, surrounded by two billionaires. 
Michael Bloomberg is trash.
Warren makes the case for why she would be a better president than Sanders, touting her experience digging into the details and accomplishing things. “We need ... a leader that will get it done,” she says.
MORE BS FROM BLOOMBERG: “We let it get out of control and when we realized that we cut it back by 95%,” Bloomberg says of stop & frisk, but he is misleading at best here. He only did this because of extensive litigation and a federal court ruling against him.
MOOD.
“I was probably wrong to make the jokes.” - Michael Bloomberg
“I’m sorry if she heard what she thought she heard.” - Michael Bloomberg, on the former employee who alleged that Bloomberg said, “Kill it,” when she was discussing being pregnant.
And, yes, Warren made clear the issue that I detailed when Bloomberg made his post-debate “I’ll release these three women” comment. She was discussing — and the issue is — all NDAs from his company re: sexual harassment and gender discrimination claims. He’s not addressing them.
Joe Biden, who changed many positions on criminal justice in recent years (basically reversing his whole Senate career), says that Steyer is late to the cause of racial justice. (He called him a “Tommy come lately,” which, poor Johnny.)
Congratulations to the audience on their unexpected windfall. 😒
Seriously, how many tickets did Bloomberg get, who was picked, and what were they told to do?
"Do they hurt my Uncle Dick in the deer stand?" is my new band name.
A billionaire (Steyer) supporting term limits makes sense — because term limits give more power to special interests.
This debate is a disaster because it's both a primary #DemDebate and a general election debate because of Bloomberg's Republicanism and his audience of plants.
Why is Bloomberg?
For those who wondered about the term limits comment, here are some things to read:
The news org that IMMEDIATELY sets up an exit poll of the audience gets my love forever:
The vaccine is in the head of a kid in South Carolina? Is Amy a fan-fic author? Where is her work???
“We should make a fuss” about human rights abuses.
Michael Bloomberg, man.
Michael Bloomberg, man.
Bloomberg Trump-ing his way through the tax release question each week is like the 15th reason that disqualifies him from the Democratic nomination.
Misconceptions & Mottos ... sounds like a game on #TheCircle.
“What is your motto, Amy?!”
Joe Biden says, in his Motto answer, that he wants to put a Black woman on the Supreme Court ...
... a line at the end that I can almost guarantee is going to crest a news cycle.
Warren’s last words — a return to her open — are that she “will be an effective president.”
My motto: Let us try to be good to one another — and ourselves.
Night, all.
Night, all.
