My goodness, this is certainly a spirited debate.

There's nothing wrong with debate. We all have a lot to learn from each other.

To me the important thing is making sure Trump doesn't win the White House. Donald wants the trappings, the pomp, the salutes, and the fanfare. God only knows who'll be pulling the strings behind a Trump presidency. We have to be vigilant.

I hope we can all come together and stay strong through November.
