Nairbo posted:Why are Reddit nerds saying Pete did well? I thought he gave a completely embarassing answer on the civil rights issue question and didn't do particularly well throughout the rest of it either. Cause he talk gud. But seriously, he is a smooth talker, it's just that his policies are nebulous so he can kind of say anything he wants.

Biden's first presidential campaign was in 1988, right? Imagine it's 2051 or something and we're all still listening to old Pete Buttigieg ramble on about why he should be president.

Bernie didn't do great but he didn't do poorly, and with the debate moderators being very obviously out to gently caress with him he did fine. The real losers tonight are biden and everyone else. Harris did great, she's probably going to see a pretty big uptake in support from tonight.

So I missed the majority of the debate, but it sounds like Biden got hammered out there. It's really funny because his VP debates feel like they were both huge wins. Then again, being more knowledgeable and likable than Paul Ryan and Sarah Palin is pretty loving easy

Unoriginal Name posted:Pack the supreme court Right, that's the only real solution, but it's not one that anyone (to my knowledge) has actually endorsed. At best we have Warren saying she'd look at it. But really, it's fine to me to wait until after the election to endorse packing the court and ending the filibuster. Not that the Republicans ever need a justification, but the last thing we need is them using that as a cassus belli to prospectively do that.

Man, I expected Biden to struggle on the stage, but I didn't expect him to get steamrolled right out the gate. Well done Harris; I still don't want you as the nominee, but if we have to have a cop in the White House I guess one that's also willing to murder white people is a plus.

Serious question, could you do rotating panels of judges on the supreme Court like you get in Federal courts? So a randomly chosen subset of like 5 get picked for each case? It seems like that, combined with more justices is the best way out of our current shitshow that doesn't just end with the next Republican repacking the court

Diluting the power that each individual justice has should be a goal of whatever packing the courts ends up looking like (could even be "bipartisan" but lol dem spin sux). ummel fucked around with this message at 05:50 on Jun 28, 2019 |

I heard that as Bernie saying that abortion was already protected by the MFA bill. Which means that it was an even better answer in that he was saying that he's already put legislation forward to enshrine the right in law.

Nonsense posted:https://twitter.com/VaughnHillyard/status/1144463380268216322 That is how I would interpret that question too, but I can see that he also could have meant 'their health insurance' as in the people at home's health insurance. The question is awkward because as written, "their" should be referring to the candidates
