HOLY CRAP. Did y’all watch? IT WAS EPIC.
We sorta knew going in it was going to be off the rails, but I had no idea it would be THIS off the rails, and the fire started almost immediately, with Elizabeth Warren TEARING into Bloomberg.
We’ll get to that in a second. First, let’s just take a look at this marvelous visual.

If you watched our FB live video yesterday, you know that we have been unable to get a straight answer on Mini Mike’s Actual Height. What we DID know is that Amy Klobuchar is 5’4.
So now I think we have our answer. Mini is, in fact, mini. I think Trump’s estimate of 5’4 is spot on, and so I feel like I can now move on with my life.
Ok, back to the sh*tshow.
Check out this moment right at the beginning.

That clip was a pretty perfect representation of Liz’s entire night. She attacked pretty much everybody, and she was ON FIRE. If I had to choose a winner of the night (other than Trump who won last night in an epic landslide), I’d choose Liz just because she was on offense, on her game, unshakeable, and in every conversation. She was annoying AF, obviously, but as far as performance goes, she was all over this night.
Bloomberg was on defense all night, if you can call it that, since he was mostly a quiet evil tortoise, but here’s the moment that he completely threw in the towel and was toast.

Yiiiiiiiiiikes. He needs to fire his entire debate prep team, if in fact he has one, because DAYUM. How he wasn’t prepared for this question, I have no idea.
His best moment? These two:

He also had a moment when he asked if anyone else on stage had started a business, and there was this hilarious pregnant pause since he’s the only one who has.
Bernie didn’t handle that three home question well at ALL, and it was good for Bloomer to get his dig in on it, since NO ONE ELSE FREAKING WILL. I mean, the moderators were absolutely useless, especially when this happened:
Moderator: "Mayor Bloomberg, should you, a billionaire exist? […] Should you have earned that much money?"
Bloomberg: "Yes, I worked very hard for it and I'm giving it away."
Amazing how this is even controversial. #DemDebate pic.twitter.com/o2BsHBdnpQ

“Should you exist.” That was an Actual Question. And then the rest of the time? It was like this:

For some reason I can’t explain, Pete and Amy were at each other’s throats much of the night, even though neither of them has a snowball’s chance in hell at winning this thing:

She didn’t seem as tremble-y last night, which was good, and considering how absolutely idiotic it was for Pete AND that ridiculous moderator to go after her on the name of the Mexican president thing, she had a solid performance. She was wrong, however, when she said that the way to “end internet sexism” is to have a woman president. Gimme a break.
Pete was very talking pointy and combative and Pete fans probably thought he did great. He just didn’t really have a MOMENT though, and if you argue that he DID with the Amy fight, then I’d say that that moment only made him look petty and mean. But there was this one bright spot:

Oh yeah. Joe. Joe Biden was there. And you guys, I am not making this up, he counted in EVERY SINGLE SOLITARY ANSWER HE GAVE. Every single one. No joke. He cannot answer a question without counting.
Let me pause here and just show you what awesomeness was happening at the Trump rally WHILE this sh*tshow was happening:
Wow, this moment is incredible.@realDonaldTrump just surprised a disabled WWII veteran and the two men who carried him to his seat with a shout out and signed hats that @DonaldJTrumpJr personally delivered to them on the spot.

But back to the sh*tshow. This moment happened during Joe’s close:

No idea what they were bitching about.
There were so many other moments that I’m sure I’m now forgetting you guys. I wish that someone – ANYONE – would have called Liz “Karen” at some point during the night because she was being SUCH A KAREN, but still, she led the pathetic, miserable field and ended up looking like the strong one.
Bloomberg might as well have just taken a pile of his money and set it on fire, because his night on the whole was positively disastrous.
Bernie was Bernie, and while there were a few callouts about socialism and his Bernie Bros, NO ONE SAID ANYTHING ABOUT GULAGS. If they want to beat this guy, they need to go after his gulags. He is desperate for Bloomberg to have had a heart attack even though he hasn’t had one, and so now he’s all, “YOU HAVE STENTS LIKE I DO!” It’s hilarious. He also told Bloomberg that it was a “cheap shot” to mention communism, but it really wasn’t. It was completely accurate. Bernie is a commie, dressed up as a “democratic socialist” which means nothing except that it allows Bernie bros and the rest of the morons who support that moonbat to actually democratically VOTE themselves into communism.
Anyway, those are some of my thoughts. Meanwhile, Trump has just tapped Richard Grenell to be acting National Intelligence Director, and libs are freaking. I love it because now we can say if they’re against this choice then they’re obviously homophobic, because if I’ve learned anything from liberals, it’s that THAT IS HOW YOU LIBERAL.
What were your takeaways from last night?
