The @washingtonpost Editorial Board warns after #DemocraticDebate2020 that candidates shouldn’t be dismiss real concerns about big ideas like #Medicare4All -candidates should be held to account on the viability of their ideas Image
Elizabeth Warren delivered a major applause line when she said “I don’t understand why anybody goes to all the trouble of running for president of the United States just to talk about what we really can’t do and shouldn’t fight for.” Fair point. Aspirational=good. But moderators Image

Reminder on 2 points: yes, most convicted of 1325 get time served in judicial process costing taxpayers what a US District Judge called 'mind-boggling, neither meritorious nor reasonable' & clog up as much as 80 % of TX border courts before landing in ICE

The government can only prosecute a small % of illegal border-crossers anyway, it simply doesn't have the capacity. But families weren't only separated under zero tolerance because of 1325: houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-t…
And though some families are still being separated now because of 1325, the vast majority are being separated because of broad gang and criminal allegations and often without little shared proof: houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-t…

It’s super weird that Dems are just finding out tonight that Obama was a garbage President.

It’s almost like the entire Lib party are just grifters looking for money and power.

Imagine how they’ll feel when they find out Obama deported more illegals than any other President.

I keep hearing [men] say that a female/female ticket would have no chance at winning. Let's step back and examine this for a moment, shall we? (thread style.)
Consider 2008. Minority communities came out in droves to vote for Barack Obama (4% higher than the previous election) while a higher number of white voters stayed home (down 1% from 2004.) Image
At the time, the NYT broke it down like this: "In last year’s presidential election, younger blacks voted in greater proportions than whites for the first time and black women turned out at a higher rate than any other racial, ethnic and gender group."

1. Based on the #DemocraticDebate2020 the dems are in bad shape. The level of contempt for their most loyal base (Black Americans) is going to be the reason why Trump is re-elected. They think we are bulls**ting about our reparations, and we are NOT. (cont)
2. The benign neglect policy that the democrats have used to undermine Black Americans for the last 50 years will no longer be tolerated. If Black Americans do NOT get reparations, we simply won't vote for them. What the hell do we have to lose NOT voting for them? #DemDebate2020
3. Not only are the #DemDebate2020 ignoring Black issues, they are actually prioritizing policies that are extremely detrimental to Black Americans. The main two are immigration & white LGBT issues (cont)
