17. Liz and Amy are doing great imo

Wed Feb 19, 2020, 11:40 PM

Feb 2020

Bloomberg the biggest loser, followed by Buttigieg, Sanders and Biden.

Buttigieg piling on Amy for her Mexico president gaffe, which she fully apologized for and made no excuses, was a big mistake, and both Amy and Liz made him pay for it. my opinion.

GO WOMEN!

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
