If you get a combo like “woke - witch hunt” that counts as a triple score.
Try Ebay, I’ve found some there.
Also “agenda”. Whether its the “Woke agenda”, the “LGBTQ agenda”, the “Socialist agenda” its clearly nefarious and shouldn’t be allowed.
As opposed to the People’s Glorious Right Wing Agenda that is perfect in every way!
It’s all agenda and a gender with those guys.
I’ve got my bingo card ready.
Will this be the night that the other yahoos on the stage make it clear to Tim Scott that he isn’t white?
Or, Scott gets the presidency, and at swearing-in reveals that he is a Democrat?
Dan
Santos is providing running commentary.
Ramaswamy going down in flames hard.
Elaborate!
Twitterers say hes doing great?
Is this really the debate thread? I assumed there’d be an ongoing watch party thread but I haven’t seen anything yet.
I was wondering that, too. Someone on CNN just called it a “shitshow” (the debate, not this thread).
You just had to ruin that fantasy for me.
I didn’t watch it, I can’t take that much stupid all at once. But I’m watching the MSNBC autopsy. They’re airing the “best” bits in tolerable segments.
I haven’t see much of him so far, but Ramaswamy looks like he should be sitting on someone’s lap with a hand stuck up his back. A Trump mini-me.
Pence and Haley come off as the most prepared.
Christie seems pretty lackluster.
Surprisingly (/s), DeSantis is unlikable.
I watched a few minutes of it. A debate, it was not.
The mods asked them, by a show of hands, who believes in man-made climate change. No one raised their hands, they immediately began talking over each other and by the end of it not only did no one give a yes or no answer, most of them didn’t even address the actual question. They were clearly just rattling off a memorized talking point.
Someone (Christie?) compared Vivek Ramaswamy to [paraphrasing] “another skinny guy with a funny sounding last name, Obama”. Assuming I interpreted that correctly as thinly veiled racisim, he quickly doubled down on it.
I honestly don’t understand why they even bother with these, Right and Left alike. No one’s debating anything.
I don’t think anyone had the stomach (or the desire to support fox) by actually watching along. So we’ll probably have a lot more feedback tomorrow when everyone can/will see the “greatest hits” version.
My takeaway from the clips and soundbites is that, as expected, all of those… individuals… are evil to a greater or lesser extent. That the support of Trump was much more muted than I expected. That DeSantis was dull, Christie was comparatively charming (not saying much that), and Pence more active than expected.
And while I still would pick Christie if my wife was held hostage and I was forced to vote for one of these folks, that none of them are safe for the future of this country.
I may have misheard the guy on CNN. For all I know, he could be one of the mods.
Oh thank god.
I won’t speak to the Democratic debates, but will say for the Republicans, it’s not, and cannot be a debate because most of them won’t abide by any rules that restrict them. So, yeah, there isn’t much point. Facts, verification, responsibility to the moderator, those are all likely gone for good. Especially when your host network is freakin’ Fox.
