Did Bernie say North Korea has nuclear weapons? lol

They do.

 

[WarMacheen]

He has the right principles, but not enough knowledge.

Good thing the President doesn't make decisions regarding foreign policy without any input or help from anyone else.

 

[Chezzymann]

uhhh bernie are you ok

 

[Bruce Springsteen]

When not talking about Wall Street, Bernie looks completely lost

 

[kirblar]

As it has happened for hundreds of years since the goddamn the Tulips. "Make the government fix it" has not been the answer and will never be the answer.

Depressions are normal.

Bubbles and crashes can be calmed down. Part of the issue in the '90s/'00s was that the fed lost all teeth due to Greenspan's misguided "just always keep the gas on" policies.

 

[ArkhamFantasy]

What a stupid question.

 

[richsena]

Hey, they already defeated Ultron and the Chi'tari.



Hillary has all the right knowledge, and all the wrong solutions.

ISIS is more of an Iron Man or Captain American solo movie, tbh.

 

[rokkerkory]

bernie getting pwned here

sigh

this will change the polls

 

[painey]

North Korea is not a threat to the USA

 

[Linkyn]

A nation with nuclear weapons... kinda like Russia?

 

[billeh]

Did Bernie say North Korea has nuclear weapons? lol

They just detonated something to that degree ..

Don't agree with his ranking though.

 

[Crayons]

bernie why

 

[Alcander]

You don't know what strong suit means. I'm talking about doing the best in that field with what you're given, and Clinton wouldn't do the best thing. She's too warmongering.

??? I absolutely know what strong suit means. Regardless of what you think of her policies, within the confines of a debate, foreign policy is absolutely one of her strongest suits.

 

[Angelus Errare]

Poor Bernie, dude looked like a kid being asked something on quantum physics.

 

[Elfforkusu]

Did Bernie say North Korea has nuclear weapons? lol

They do, though?

 

[A Human Becoming]

I like Bernie but he started off strong only to fizzle now. He can't take her on one-on-one. She comes across so much stronger and thoughtful.

 

[neurosisxeno]

Also, North Korea shouldn't make you nervous.

Neither should Iran, but in 2012 Paul Ryan was talking about them like they had nukes aimed right at NYC.

I like Bernie but he started off strong only to fizzle now. He can't take her on one-on-one. She comes across so much stronger and thoughtful.

They started on his strongest topic--economics--and moves to his weakest topic--foreign policy.

 

[Ashodin]

??? I absolutely know what strong suit means. Regardless of what you think of her policies, within the confines of a debate, foreign policy is absolutely one of her strongest suits.

Within the confines of a debate, she's definitely more informed.

 

[Juice]

What a stupid question.

It was a total softball, intentionally asked to underscore how badly reasoned Bernie's foreign policy is.

It was a very low bar and Bernie tripped right over it.

 

[jerry113]

Can we combine Hillary and Bernie into one candidate so we can get her foreign policy combined with his domestic policies?

 

[Your Entertainer]

I think Bernie would be served by bringing up the Iraq War vote less. It's a good point but going further would be even better.

 

[NullPointer]

Bernie is terrible with foreign policy. He seems flustered.

I don't think he was ready to get so combative. He's shaken.

They both appear off balance, but Bernie more so, and he doesn't speak with passion or authority or clarity on foreign policy. So bad.

 

[ApharmdX]

North Korea is not a threat to the USA

Not directly.

 

[ShooterMcGavin]

Yeah, this is a slaughterhouse right now.

 

[nib95]

Except, again, the "break up the banks" concept does nothing to regulate the institutes in question beyond limiting their size.

Again, you are obfuscating and digressing. There are many benefits to breaking up the banks that I've briefly listed in my two posts now. Regulation is a separate issue altogether, and I did mention that the smaller the institute, the easier it would be to regulate. Breaking up the banks is just one of the many changes that would improve the current situation, improving and making stricter regulations is another. They would both need to be implemented for maximum effectiveness.

 

[And_Gignac]

ladshjdskjfskd I cant keep watching this. He is absolutely right but is not able to pull his idea off correctly.

Damn Bernie you were doing so good.

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

Did Bernie say North Korea has nuclear weapons? lol

They do.

 

[eBay Huckster]

So, full on Laissez-faire?

No. He's saying provide oversight and in particular, regulate the shit out of certain activity.

Regulating those two things wouldn't necessarily stop a crisis either buddy.

They'd do a damn sight better on actually preventing one from being as deep.

 

[massoluk]

GOP will eat Bernie alive on foreign policy and defense in GE. I'm sorry.

 

[Chaotic-Strike]

Yea Bernie stumbling hard here while Clinton is going full hawk.

Can't say I agree with either of them.

 

[Tragicomedy]

They do, though?

And they have made more progress in weaponizing it with the Taepodong-2 than Iran has.

Russia is still a bigger threat than either of them.

 

[Wallach]

In terms of overall public view he's going to pretty soundly lose this foreign policy debate. Regardless of his 2002 vote on the Iraq war.

 

[Condom]

How can you be that bad on foreign policy though? Have they (Bernie campaign) not made up a plan yet?

 

[gutter_trash]

NATO is a joke when you have bedfellows like Turkey leaving the border wide open

 

[User1608]

This is why you shouldn't just talk about one topic, as important as it is, Bernie. Foreign policy affects us too!

 

[Angelus Errare]

Hilary right now:

 

[Abinash117]

Russia that actively does something that is seemingly against US interest is less dangerous to a country that is extremely isolated and does nothing but talk.

Not directly.

No, they aren't at all.

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

So, full on Laissez-faire? I feel like that's been tried before.

Government has a role in all other solutions.

No you provide tools for policy makers that helps everyone navigate a down cycle better. And breaking up the banks is not that.

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

Can we combine Hillary and Bernie into one candidate so we can get her foreign policy combined with his domestic policies?

or just have bernie appoint hillary as his secretary of defence

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

Can we combine Hillary and Bernie into one candidate so we can get her foreign policy combined with his domestic policies?

how about his foreign policy combined with her knowledge of foreign policy

 

[Your Entertainer]

I don't think he was ready to get so combative. He's shaken.

They both appear off balance, but Bernie more so, and he doesn't speak with passion or authority or clarity on foreign policy. So bad.

I agree that he doesn't appear to speak with the same passion as he does about domestic issues.

 

[neurosisxeno]

ISIS is more of an Iron Man or Captain American solo movie, tbh.

Wasn't it basically the first 30 minutes of Iron Man 1?

 

[Pineapple]

Sanders is a good populist on economic issues but he is completely out of his depth here.

I agree, but I don't understand why he seems so unprepared on these topics. I can understand a governor being weak on foreign policy, but a senator? Aren't these issues discussed fairly regularly on the senate floor?

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

North Korea is not a threat to the USA

Neither are Iran or Russia.

 

[Plywood]

Bernie is terrible with foreign policy. He seems flustered.

Yeah picking North Korea, really?

 

[Butts-a-plenty]

Lol Hillarys answer after Bernies. Jesus Christ he's a lost child on this topic.

 

[undrtakr900]

Yeah he's just absolutely terrible if you ask him anything about foreign policy.

We need a hybrid president:
Bernie = Domestic
Hilldawg = Foreign

 

[shinra-bansho]

Did Bernie say North Korea has nuclear weapons? lol

They've conducted detectable tests from memory.

But it's really not the greatest threat to the US.

 

[A Human Becoming]

I'm disappointed Bernie doesn't brush up on his foreign policy. This is his time.

 

[Elfforkusu]

Can we combine Hillary and Bernie into one candidate so we can get her foreign policy combined with his domestic policies?

Hillary has given foreign policy a lot more thought than Bernie has, and can articulate her thoughts on it much better.

And if I had a choice I would want those well articulated thoughts no where near the White House.
