Harris took some incoming fire drray23 Jul 2019 #7

She didn't even try to rebut it. She deflected. femmedem Jul 2019 #10

I don't blame her, it doesn't disqualify her so why dwell on it. It's past crap that CNN wants to uponit7771 Jul 2019 #11

Gabbard brought it up, not CNN. Really sick of the pukes and dems media bashing right and UniteFightBack Jul 2019 #71

Better to find out now rather than later Indygram Jul 2019 #91

INSLEE! His climate change critique of Biden on science isn't wrong. ancianita Jul 2019 #41

Not if their current mindset has changed, I don't expect perfect. All of them qualify as progressive uponit7771 Jul 2019 #107

True. But what they all say is that "the past isn't THE single greatest reason not to vote for me." ancianita Jul 2019 #113
