Democrats' debate erupts as candidates spar over donors; Yang slams Trump 'obsession'
Fox News ^ | December 19 2019 | Gregg Re

Long-simmering tensions boiled over at Thursday night's 2020 Democratic presidential primary debate in Los Angeles, as a blunt one-on-one sparring match erupted between Pete Buttigieg and Elizabeth Warren over their fundraising -- just minutes after businessman Andrew Yang slammed Democrats' "obsession" with President Trump and impeachment.

Warren, a U.S. senator from Massachusetts, began the fiery exchange by criticizing Buttigieg's recent lavish fundraiser in Napa, Calif., saying he was cavorting with "billionaires in wine caves" -- prompting Buttigieg to retort that Warren, a multimillionaire, was a populist in name only.

"You know, according to Forbes magazine, I'm literally the only person on this stage who is not a millionaire or billionaire," Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Ind., said. "This is the problem with issuing purity tests you yourself cannot pass."

Even California must be getting tired of their antics. It would be nice if Trump took a few electoral seats.

I hope you are right and I am wrong. I think this thing is far from over. bolton is still an unknown and the articles of impeachment are already past the house. That is potentially days away from conviction.

Well, Mayor Buttplug, that means you have failed at life and are not fit to lead our country.

Presidential candidates must be personally successful.

I share your apprehension. "Never underestimate the power of the Force," as Darth Vader might say.

He would look like a choirboy compared to the hateful & malicious young people today. Not to mention the feminists, LGBT, & BLM people.

I tried to watch it. I honestly did. But it was more boring than watching paint dry.

The Fake Impeachment has sucked all the oxygen out of the Drive-By Media’s coverage. There has bee NO coverage of the Dem’s campaigns over the past 2-3 months. They’ll NEVER get that time back.

Literally, in a military sense, they got distracted from “The Mission”. They let rabid, delusional idiots destroy themselves. They must have thought their dominance of the Brown Shirt Media meant they could do anything. The worst part is they aren’t done and most of them don’t realize the damage they have done to themselves.

One of the things I’ve learned about the Drive-Bys is that they can only do one thing at a time. And then they focus on that one major story (as they deem it to be) to the exclusion of everything else.

I just wonder is Trump really that brilliant? Did he figure that out about how the Drive-Bys operate, and then lure them into the trap?

When Rats fight its such delight. They are a cabal of conflicted hypocrisy so turning their swords on each other is just par for the course. Merry Ratmas.

I watched bits of it. They all talk about what they would do if given a chance.

Then I think.... a bunch of them are long time Senators who have never done anything even though they work in the body where stuff gets done.

And then you have SLoJo who was not only in the Senate for a hundred years but in the White House for eight.

Why didn’t they ever get any off these things done then?

One question was how fast would Gitmo get shut down if you won. Right away, of course, they all said.

Then when asked of SloJo why he didn’t do it he said it was the Republicans wouldn’t allow it. ?????????????????

During the first two years of the hussein reign they had the House, Senate and complete control of the media. A phone and a pen could have made it disappear.

If I didn’t know better I would think all of these clowns are all talk and no action.

But they do agree on one thing...ORANGE MAN BAD!!!!!!

My guess is Mayor Pete will be the nominee since qualifications have nothing to do with it and liberals need to go through the whole LGBTQRSTUVWXYZ to cover their base.

Once the alphabet has been covered I’m guessing animals will be next.
