LOL spot on, Tommy. Tulsi thinks the problem with Syria is that people are mean to her in the media.

there's only one logical explanation. Tulsi is a robot. And that's why the only one she is nice to is Yang. Man, those Russians make really lifelike robots. Life Model Decoys.

Kamala didn't really answer the question but she did a good job laying out the broader whole-world consequences of what Trump did in Turkey

ok in the light of day Joe's answer on Syria was really good. And I loved the joke and hug between him and Bernie.

Something about Tulsi is...off. I mean aide from the content of what she says. When she says "join me" it's somewhat disconcerting. She does this false sincere thing with her eyes and voice that just comes off as creepy to me It's the cult setting she was raised in.

She does this false sincere thing with her eyes and voice that just comes off as creepy to me I realized last night that it reminded me of the way 1940s movie stars would use a deep voice and give imploring eyes. It definitely feels like an act.

Has Yang ever smiled? This is a real hard-hitting question but I don't think I've seen it. I'm watching the debate now, although I read a ton of recaps (including this one) before starting.

I continue to be amazed that Warren is 71, she truly does not look it. I need to know the details of her skin care regimen!

Why does Tulsi keep trying to ask questions? No one else is doing this, right?

I'm back in it.
While the mandatory buybacks gambit is a highly questionable strategy, I think Beto actually came out of the whole exchange looking good. Pete going full attack dog on him about something Beto has consistently shown his sincerety on looked petty, especially as Beto's own community is still reeling from a horrific terror attack (and no, I'm not saying people who have suffered tragedy are off limits in debates). Pete could easily have said some of the things you all have said in this and other threads about moderate voters and gun owners' legitimate concerns about mandatory buybacks, but he just kind of went at Beto instead and tried to talk down to him. Beto's comeback about, "Just because there are things we urgently need to do now doesn't mean we can't talk about the huge things we need to work toward in the long term. Por que no los dos?"
It's something Republicans do over, and over, and over again with the gun debate (we don't need universal background checks because that wouldn't have stopped this one shooter this one time! See!) and I am surprised and disappointed to see Pete doing it.

Klobuchar's "let's not mess this up" by overreaching on guns is actually the perfect response and what Pete should have said.
