Facebook doesn't allow the posting of porn, and undoubtedly has video analysis ML algorithms that are running to check all uploaded videos and animated images.

All this means is that Facebook agrees that Santorum looks like he's jerking off.

At least they're accurate. Perhaps they should also be blocking every time that prick opens his mouth.

Moderator tone in that kids' table debate was brutal; you get the sense they'd like to shave off at least 5 of those candidates (maybe all except Fiorina, whom they've immediately started beating the drum for) and just kill the concept of having to do this stupid poo poo again.

"Life unworthy of life" (German: Lebensunwertes Leben) is a pragmatic liberal designation for the segments of the populace which they view as having no right to continue existing, due to the expense of extending them basic human dignity.

The worst possible thing would be for him to be enthusiastically received by the audience. The only thing that could possibly make Sanders uncool is an inescapable cohort of really awful and enthusiastic supporters giving him a bad rep.

Is there some place to catch the kiddy debate? I missed it.

So a point of discussion I want to bring up: Trump is overall pretty moderate on some topics, and has in the past professed his love for single-payer healthcare.

In the past month all he's said about Obamacare is "I want to repeal it and replace it with something better".

If Trump gets elected and that "something better" turns out to be universal healthcare, how many Republicans are going to shoot themselves?

He's not a socialist so he's not going to go for universal or single payer healthcare. I would imagine something closer to what I've talked about re: public OPTION and making sure private insurance is still also an option and available/affordable to employers, middle class incomes, etc.

You are aware that even the most "socialist" of healthcare systems, like the UK's NHS, tend to coexist alongside private options?

Yeah. It's not a forced system, and arguably, any person against a Single-Payer system will do as much as possible to gloss over this fact or otherwise deny it. Admittedly, they're not all that popular in those countries, but they exist and arguably, the US could implement a system that better provides for private insurance companies while still allowing a Single-Payer system.

No, me too, this might be a genius part of his plan, how much Donald Trump for President is he going to sell both ironically and unironically?

Seriously, think about it, if he turns to night into a loving circus he is going to sell so much merchandise.

Lindsey Graham will take any opportunity to talk about the Middle East. Also said by Lindsey:
"If I have to monitor a mosque I'll monitor a mosque."
"I would have 20,000 US troops in Iraq and Syria to fight ISIL."
