[Zok310]

These mods are fucking LOUD!!!!!

 

[pigeon]

Hillary with the wonk's answer again. Get everybody's opinion, but know what their priors are. Accurate and correct! Sometimes hard to message.

 

[OrangeGrayBlue]

Hillary trying to defend Kissinger?

 

[Manmademan]

Why sanders is walking into these right hooks from hillary on foreign policy is a mystery to me

 

[nib95]

He's right about the consequences of US intervention, but I don't see a specific role of the US in foreign policy coming from him. US absence in geopolitics doesn't mean the game stops for other players.

It doesn't mean they stop, but it does mean they'll likely be a lot less volatile.

 

[Haribi]

"Oh God"

[SlowRevolution]

Clinton trying to start a fire with her eyes.

 

[Trojita]

Do people have to pay to go this debate? This audience is horribly unbalanced.

For the prime clapping moments, Hillary's supporters do seem to outnumber Bernie's in the crowd. To be fair she might have more general election popularity. Then again we know how the Republican Debates all had donors and suits in the crowd.

 

[Velcro Fly]

did he just yadda yadda all of Southeast Asia?

 

[Pastry]

what you even talking about

 

[sangreal]

this is so obscure. debating whether we should like kissinger or not.

 

[Owzers]

it seems like Bernie is Bernie's kinda guy though.

 

[noshten]

Tying Kissinger to Trade - what an answer

 

[studyguy]

That's a bit of a stretch but alright.

 

[Codeacious]

These moderators are terrible. They have no control over the debate.

I think they sorta gave up after Bernie stopped the break.

 

[ugaboga232]

To be sure, one can see potential bad outcomes. But his answer there makes me wonder at what point any US interactions in the world are okay.

Sanders really needs to modulate his facial expressions in these split screens.

I agree on both, i dont think he knows hes on the split screen because usually in the past he wasnt for most of the answers.

 

[Elfforkusu]

Bernie Sanders is giving Americans a history lesson on their atrocities.

It's really time we manned up on this and called a spade a spade.

We've fucked up way too many times and fucked over way too many people to not make some changes to Team America, world police.

 

[SURGEdude]

Not my kind of guy either.

 

[Draconian]

I wanna know what odds I would've gotten on Pol Pot or the Khmer Rouge being mentioned tonight.

 

[Officerrob]

yadda yadda

 

[Arkeband]

Bernie's voters are all googling Kissinger right now..

Heehee, because Sanders voters are dumb, right? Heehee!

 

[RoKKeR]

These moderators are terrible. They have no control over the debate.

Yes.

 

[Ashodin]

Oh shit he's linking Kissinger back to economy, basically saying "Don't listen to him on Foreign Policy, he brings bad economy too!"

 

[foxtrot3d]

That's a bit of a stretch but alright.

Yeah, that was.

 

[ivysaur12]

Oh wow, Hillary acting as a Kissinger apologist. Shame. Pure Shame. Arguing for the necessary evil of Henry Kissinger.

That's not what she said.

I also think that there was a much better thing for Bernie to say there at the end, but talked about... trade?

 

[pigeon]

How did we connect Henry Kissinger to globalization?

 

[B-Dubs]

Hillary trying to defend Kissinger?

It was more that you can't ignore everyone since sometimes people can have insight that should be considered when making a decision.

 

[Kid Kamikaze10]

Kissinger is NOT the hill to die on, Hillary.

Hold the L.

 

[OrangeGrayBlue]

Maybe I'm biased but spinning together Kissinger and trade agreements re: China seemed pretty damn impressive.

 

[nckillthegrimace]

Did Bernie Sanders just read The People's History of the United States or something?

 

[shoplifter]

Howard Zinn back from the grave

 

[Makai]

yabba dabba doo

 

[Red]

this is so obscure. debating whether we should like kissinger or not.

I thought the same, but it's probably just because I'm not familiar enough with him.

 

[A Human Becoming]

Bernie is going to flop on this Russian question.

 

[RustyNails]

Judy Woodruff looking mighty fine tonight.

 

[Pyroclastic]

I mean he's right, but...

 

[TheChits]

yabba dabba doo

lmao

 

[rtcn63]

Did Bernie Sanders just read The People's History of the United States or something?

Bro he lived it

 

[Dixon's Jet]

It was more that you can't ignore everyone since sometimes people can have insight that should be considered when making a decision.

So take advice from notorious war criminals?

 

[lastflowers]

Bernie is going to flop on this Russian question.

yeah, this outta be interesting.

 

[SURGEdude]

How did we connect Henry Kissinger to globalization?

Not a solid link for Bernie. He often goes a bit too far on this kind of stuff.

 

[Zophar]

How did we connect Henry Kissinger to globalization?

Pretty hard to argue thawing relations between the US and China wasn't a significant step toward that.

 

[East Lake]

How did we connect Henry Kissinger to globalization?

How do things connect? What a difficult world!

 

[Elfforkusu]

Did Bernie Sanders just read The People's History of the United States or something?

He fucking lived it.

 

[OrangeGrayBlue]

It was more that you can't ignore everyone since sometimes people can have insight that should be considered when making a decision.

Fair point. Like Pigeon said, it makes sense but is hard to message.

 

[gutter_trash]

past actions do have consequences in the future, the CIA calls that "blowback"

weaponizong the Mujahadeeen to fight the Soviets created the shit heads called the Taliban a decade later in Afgahnistan

 

[injurai]

That's not what she said.

I also think that there was a much better thing for Bernie to say there at the end, but talked about... trade?

She defended snugging up to Kissinger's policy in support, saying it was equivalent to learning about necessary evils and differing opinions that are "useful" to America. She equated Sander's opposition to Kissinger as a refusal to understand him.

 

[Makai]

Hey guys, it's Bernie Rubble

 

[BoboBrazil]

It was more that you can't ignore everyone since sometimes people can have insight that should be considered when making a decision.

Yep, it's something Bernie doesn't understand. It's being diplomatic and necessary to be President.
