Yes bring up trust busting. YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

Yep, Bernie got her!

 

[finowns]

This is smart by her... Bernie's right but it's not a good look to tear down the fucking President

He's hardly tearing down the president.

foreigneigneign affairs

 

[Raxus]

They are REALLY going into it on this. Should have seen this coming though. Bernie's bread and butter has been the economy and finance reform.

 

[rtcn63]

Bernie's like "I might croak any second now y'all on Bernie's time"

 

[RoKKeR]

Good stuff there from Bernie, but foreign policy is coming up.

Wondering if he has improved since last time.

 

[Prof. Bathtub]

This DBZ posting is annoying.

 

[Aikidoka]

I really wish Clinton would stop lying

 

[danm999]

Good, he's calling Obama out and the establishment.

Not smart if he wants to get elected.

 

[SURGEdude]

insult people like saying they hang out on street comers?

LMAO, way to back the system. Yes I'm sure Bernie is a racist. What a dumbass thing to say.

 

[HanShotFirst]

Good exchange between them.

 

[Cybit]

Yep. Arguing with her on this is the dumbest thing Bernie could do.

Nah - going after the lack of prosecution is the perfect counter. I agree with Bernie and I worked for Obama and love the dude.

 

[nillah]

 

[lastflowers]

Trust Buster.


Hillary's ready for the next topic.

 

[K.Sabot]

We about to bring out the ol' trust bustin' bat?

 

[Pastry]

Hillary came out of that okay.

Stuck to Obama and fought until the commercial, all she could do really. It'll play well with the general

 

[Manmademan]

Now when she says "No bank is too big to fail."

Is she making an observation or trying to say "No bank should be to big to fail."

Dodd Frank contains language to unwind large banks that didn't exist prior. That's what she means when she says no bank is too big to fail, because the government can dismantle them now.

That wasn't the case when the economy melted down.

 

[Deserted Maniac Island]

"The super pac just happens to support me"

 

[kingocfs]

LOL these halftime highlights. Where's Chris Berman?

 

[kingkitty]

even pbs isn't safe from the halftime show

 

[Fracas]

oh no, foreign policy coming up

gg berns

 

[Psychoward]

Why? To make his life easier?

Because she isn't Obama and they both supported the policies against Wall Street that he DID put forth.

 

[studyguy]

Foreign Affairs is about to be Hillary's Wall Street

 

[injurai]

This DBZ posting is annoying.

Just people having fun.

 

[Oreoleo]

Missed the first hour, any highlights?

 

[pigeon]

I really wish Clinton would stop lying

What a bad post.

 

[nib95]

And back to wall street, ugh

Because it's a gargantuan issue that has not been remotely sorted and needs vigorous aggression and attention, in the hopes it will not again crumble the global economy all over again, and with it ruin millions of lives all over again too. Millions of some of the already most impoverished and socioeconomically vulnerable.

 

[shinra-bansho]

So, again, as in the last debate: Three of the four banks are bigger because they swallowed up the failing banks at the behest of the government. Citi is smaller.
The institutions that led to the financial crisis would not have been affected by a Glass Steagall type separation.

 

[David Incorporated Esq.]

God, I love how Bernie always raises his hand when he wants to get a point in. Like an excited kid in grade school.

 

[JABEE]

Great call back to Teddy.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

I hope Bernie has boned up on his foreign policy. He's been doing very well so far, but he got clobbered on it last time.

If he takes a hit like that again, he won't look too hot.

 

[WarMacheen]

She'd probably make the whole debate about foreign policy if she could.

As a former Secretary of State it should be, it is by far her strongest category

 

[Raxus]

Coming up. Bernie getting owned on foreign policy most likely. AKA the survival round.

 

[Paskil]

Bernie not doing himself favors tearing down Obama in this debate. South Carolina dem base lives him.

 

[NullPointer]

Man, so Hillary once again whiffed on contributions and Wall Street. Like a deer in the headlights.

Wonder if we'll see exactly the same when it comes to Bernie and foreign policy.

Bernie not doing himself favors tearing down Obama in this debate. South Carolina dem base lives him.

You can't hold up Obama as the example of Wall Street accountability.

 

[cDNA]

Hillary should stop using Obama as a shield constantly in that case.

Why? because that Superpac, Priorities USA, being criticized too much now, helped Obama win re-election.

 

[East Lake]

I feel like Hillary is dominating this discussion and I'm actually kind of disappointed that GAF's response is the opposite. Hillary's right on the policy here!

Stupid voters at it again!

 

[theignoramus]

Foreign policy. Hillary will not lose this upcoming exchange. Sanders just needs to limit the damage or break even.

 

[SolarPowered]

Why? To make his life easier?

Rubio already demonstrated and Bernie isn't exactly a stranger repetition. We already got the message that she'll the Obama 2.0.

 

[B-Dubs]

So, again, as in the last debate: Three of the four banks are bigger because they swallowed up the failing banks at the behest of the government. Citi is smaller.

You're making too much sense for this argument.

Rubio already demonstrated and Bernie isn't exactly a stranger repetition. We already got the message that she'll the Obama 2.0.

The point is that by doing that Bernie looks like he's attacking Obama, which he also does without her help, and it helps keep minority voters and the rest of the Obama coalition in her corner.

 

[Kthulhu]

Politicians have been chipping away at Dodd Frank since it was implemented. Hillary needs to advocate for bringing back Glass Steagall.

 

[legacyzero]

Ugh, Bern's gotta step it up for next segment.

 

[exmachina64]

Good, he's calling Obama out and the establishment.

Does he want Obama, a popular president (outside of conservatives) to go on the campaign trail with him?

 

[A Human Becoming]

Coming up. Bernie getting owned on foreign policy most likely. AKA the survival round.

Pls Bernie don't suck as hard as last time.

 

[Pastry]

Bernie not doing himself favors tearing down Obama in this debate. South Carolina dem base lives him.

Exactly, terrible idea with the South roaring up so soon

 

[TheLaughingStock]

Dodd Frank contains language to unwind large banks that didn't exist prior. That's what she means when she says no bank is too big to fail, because the government can dismantle them now.

That wasn't the case when the economy melted down.

That's false.

Oh shit if Clinton had a dance crew come out to do "formation" I would lose it.

 

[zelas]

He's hardly tearing down the president.

Not explicitly. Just in a way a politician would.

 

[Tabris]

Canada has five banks that hold a massive percentage of the market there, so please don't come with that.

Regardless, most of what the banks did before the crisis was perfectly legal.

Those five banks are not allowed to merge.

They have to report quarterly to government. There are huge regulations around. They have to split their businesses to avoid the kind of corruption you see in WS banks.

Also, remember, Canada is 1/10th the population of the US. So the equivalent for America would be to have 50 major banks.

 

[Phrozenflame500]

Hilary sticking hard to Obama, and Bernie sticking hard to his Wall Street talking points. About what I expected, but Bernie got some really solid hits in here.
