Absolutely funniest thing in Democratic politics today... [View all]

Link to tweet

I am of two minds on splitting the debate now. If it was 5-6 people on stage at a time, I think it would make for a better debate. But I would also like to see all the leading candidates on the same stage.

The random drawings for stage positions leave something to be desired.

If I were to vote in a presidential

I believe the DNC is the one insisting any split be done randomly. bluewater Aug 2019 #10
