Trump slams Sanders: He’s all talk on trade
He said there’s “no way” anyone can imagine former Rhode Island Gov. Lincoln Chafee as president and thinks former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley “has very little chance”.
Many may scoff at Clinton’s flip-flop or evolution on the issue, as she opposed marijuana decriminalization during her previous presidential run and hasn’t been even been an outspoken supporter of medicinal cannabis until last night, but cannabis law reform advocates have to be pleased with how cannabis policy has been shaping up during the Democratic primary battle.
“The American people are sick and exhausted are hearing about your damn emails”, Sanders exclaimed as the crowd in Las Vegas roared with applause. The research firm Samba TV noted that 48 per cent of the people who watched the Democratic debate said they’d seen at least one of the Republican candidates’ forums. “Everybody on this stage has changed a position or two”, she said an hour into the evening, raising both hands in the air in an exasperated gesture.
“I think Mr. Putin is going to regret what he is doing”, said Sanders.
Vice President Joe Biden and then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in 2011. Bernie Sanders for his opposition to past gun control bills in Congress. Sanders insists he’s not carrying water for the National Rifle Association and actually gets a D-minus on the gun lobby’s legislative scorecard.
“If it’s something I believe in, it’s something I try to make happen”, said Gamble, who also volunteered for Obama and former Mobile Mayor Sam Jones.
Chafee did not speak on immigration, and Jim Webb offered an anecdote about his wife – an immigrant from Vietnam – in response to questioning on the issue.
Tuesday, Clinton put a lot of the doubts to rest.
She said: “It’s our job to rein in the excesses of capitalism but we would be making a big mistake to turn our backs on what made the greatest middle class in the history of the world”. “It’s clear the Russians and Chinese were trying to hack into her server”. “In the first half, he did not particularly handle well his answer on guns, not simply what he was saying, but also the way he appeared when Clinton came after him”.
Most of the attention, properly, focused on Clinton and Sanders.
Onstage, Sanders conceded that it might not have been “good politics” to shut down debate on Clinton’s State Department emails, but his gambit seems to have paid off, literally.
The five Democratic presidential frontrunners went head to head for the first time on Tuesday at CNN and Facebook’s official debate. “Sanders’ responses were often heavy on identifying problems while sometimes light on providing specific solutions”, said communication professor from the University of Missouri Mitchell McKinney. He should argue that we can’t elect a president who uses public office as a way to enrich herself, and who hides the evidence that she has done so.
