Whoever is running Gabbards Twitter account needs to be fired immediately. The earlier tweet about msnbc pushing Warren and now, after an opponent posts a complimentary tweet (but bitches out and deletes it), it was decided that instead of thanking them and rising above the bullshit political grandstanding, they refer to her actions as a “moment of courage” thus insinuating that McCain is a coward at all times that she’s is not supportive of gabbard.

It’s not a good look for someone who wants to be seen as calm, civil and willing to work with others.
I love how in that tweet it had to be pointed out that it was her sister throwing shade...

Yep. It was her sister both times too. Get her off that shit. It's embarrassing for someone that normally exudes integrity and professionalism. I don't think she'll win president because she won't punch through. But she stands out because of her history, her appearance (get over it! It's true!), and composure. She'd be an easy VP where she could build momentum and public presence for a future run.

Twitter is this decades gaffe maker. You step in it, Twitter will amplify and meme it until you're gone.

The fact that she would give her sister control of her Twitter account makes me seriously question her judgment ability. She either does not know her sister very well (which is a warning sign) or she does and didn’t care what she’d say. Neither of those options cast her wisdom in a favourable light when it comes to dealing with media related problems.

Alright not that it matters, but who "won"?
Top performance bonuses of the night:
Castro,
Gabarrd
Booker
Warren
DeBlasio/Deblasio lookalikes? (There were like 3 guys that looked like him. One of them won, or if they morphed into one guy maybe..)
LMFAO...

Guess I wasn't the only one:

That's me after studying for 6 weeks on Duolingo and then seeing @Sloppy Bitch ask the Peruvian Chef casually, in perfect Spanish, to make us off-menu Aji de Gallina during a Prix Fixe menu at a top Zagat spot...and the guy did it.
The chef was Brazilian and we were speaking Portuguese.

There are levels to this shit

Warren joins Castro in call to decriminalize illegal border crossings


Visa overstay currently not criminal.
Want to make border crossing illegally not criminal.

It is the criminal aspect that allows a 10 year deportation and reset for illegal entry and not for visa overstays. Presumably that would go away as well, treating everything like a visa overstay.

This is added to Warren and castro calling for "creates a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants".

Not sure the plan here. No barrier to entry but also citizenship pathway for anyone no matter their entry.


I think I'd be okay with the decriminalizing if we didn't then create such an endless policy. I don't really care to criminalize them. I do care that they aren't supposed to be here and then they dont leave.


I'm okay with the Castro push for in place aide to Central America.
