I like him just fine its just sometimes these candidates look like Gears of war textures.
imagine driving all the way down to Minneapolis from Deluth or wherever the fuck to see Mr. Prez and having to listen to Eric instead
Yes. Good for CNN for letting her just get on the mic and go.
Black trans woman stole the mic and called out CNN for not having a single black male or femal trans person ask a question all night (I haven't watched all night so idk if that's true) And it was pretty powerful moment. Don lemon didn't know wtf to do, took her mic, gave it back, took it again, but She didn't actually ask any question tho.
Beto handled it amazingly.

Well that's just uncalled for.
I'm feeling so attacked right now.
Graham called the Kurds a threat when he thought he was talking to Russia.
Ooooopsie.
The intense negative reaction she got in the mid-90's for not being a baking cookies First Lady effected her political choices for the next 30 years.
Yeah, it was super refreshing to hear a politician not dodge a question like that and just straight up be like yup, I fucked up. Very nice.
It is a cult. And it's really sad. It's like a cult for boomers whose children don't speak to them anymore.
He's still talking about Lisa Page
While Warren told a joke that's been told by drag queens at every gay bingo since 1997, Kamala actually got a substantive question from a black gay man in the audience, and gave a substantive answer on the importance of access to HIV treatment and how this effects gay communities of color:
This was actually a legitimate issue prior to Iraq raised by good-faith religious liberals and conservatives concerned about the welfare of Christians and other religious minorities in the wake of a repressed majority taking power. And well, they were completely goddamn right about the obvious consequences (Hi ISIS) and the effect it would have on minority religious groups in the country.
Trump of course understands fucking none of this nuance, just that Fox News viewers like fake Christians.
I'm sorry....but I'm going to come for her with the pronoun thing. It was an attempt at being cute, and it was anything but. I give folks wiggle room on shit, but that wasn't a good look. It was bad. She shouldn't have done it.
Warren also gave a fuck ton of substantive answers too.
Who are also perpetually confused as to why their grandkids never visit for Christmas anymore after graduating from uni.
Fraud Guarantee is too on the nose for me. We're gonna have to change the name when we make the miniseries.

Here's my thing. I'm not a gay who particularly cares about pronouns. In that sense, that moment from Harris wasn't for me.
But there are a lot of queer people across the gender spectrum that do care. That not only care, but actually want a reality where open pronoun identification becomes normalized. We see those arguments play out all the time.
I have problems with Cuomo's joke there, but giving Kamala shit for being one of only 3 candidates in this race to embrace pronoun identification is a bit bitcheatingcrackers.jpg to me.

Sure, but this actually shows how electable Warren is. She has a ton of good policy ideas (I only caught the last couple of questions of Warren's section and noticed that), and she has charisma and can tell a joke in a way that is clip-worthy. Like, I'm also sure Biden is sat around thinking "Well, how come nobody gave me the set-up for a joke like that?", because it comes across as so natural, and makes her so likable. And, like with 2016, it's not just who has the good policy, but who seems human.
I watched the video you responded see to twice thinking it had a "pronoun thing" that was problematic hidden in it and was like "wow I'm so straight no idea what she said wrong"
Then I saw this
I legitimately did a quintuple take reading "Fraud Guarantee"
Either they determined he doesn't have damning info or they got their stories straight. It's tainted, IMO
This. Feels like an attempt to score a "NOTHINGBURGER" talking point. Would love to be wrong.
So, I wanna be clear...I don't hate Harris at all. I spent a lot of time going back and forth between Harris/Warren. I landed on Warren, but I don't think ill of Harris most of the time. My son is one of those younger gays who is into pronouns. He's just a kid, of course, but he gave a gay gasp when she did it...and not in a good way. The way she presented it was so flippant that it DID really piss me off (who also is an old school gay who doesn't really give much thought to pronouns...especially being a CIS-gender male.) It just really, really rubbed me the wrong way. Cuomo's joke was even more gross, I agree. Harris often tries too hard for a moment, and the reason she doesn't always get them is because of that. She's trying too hard.
And, believe me, I would give my right tooth for Harris to be the alternative to Warren as opposed to Biden...cause then I'd only have a preference not an actual fear that my girl won't win it.
The news is still going tonight, an aide to pompeo is out and on msnbc at least Pence is now fully in the photo, not just his shoulder.
As for the town hall, cuomo shouldn't have gotten a pass for that...uh...joke?

There's gonna be a scene every episode where this exchange happens:
"Wait for real?"
"Yes that s real."

She should've called out the shitty joke on stage. That would've been the smart thing to do, not just go awkwardly say "alright". But she didn't and that says something to me.
