She defended Amy by misstating what Mayor Pete had said.

I like Warren but she made an error in judgment. Klobuchar, on the other hand, is just a bully.

and displaying more than a reasonable measure of anger. Now, ahem, we have some males who look and act angry all the time (not mentioning names), so I know there’s a double standard. But Klobuchar has had accusations of intemperate behavior leveled against her by some staff members before. You can take that as you may. But I think that was on display tonight, and for me, it was a bit concerning.

It's kind of a curiosity, as though he is a student of human nature and he is fascinated by what she will say and how she will react. He is so intelligent and just soaks up knowledge constantly.
