Question:

Are seated debates not common in the US ?

I’d like to have a debate where candidates are seated in cozy chairs like we have here in Austria.

Debate podiums are unnecessarily stiff.

There was a 2008 GOP primary debate that looked like a game show:

They looked pretty comfy in this one too, from 2012:

Maybe Ron Paul is the key to getting seating at these things? Or Romney.

Just give me Harris, Booker, de Blasio, and anyone else likely to attack Biden, on stage with Biden. The frontrunner needs to be attacked, not surrounded by sycophants hoping for a spot in his administration.

Tim Ryan just said "Nicaragua, Guatemala, and El Salvador" in reference to the Golden Triangle countries when the Golden Triangle countries are Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador.

Is this the end of the Tim Ryan campaign?

Sticking with this. Maybe shift Buttigieg to 'Good'.

Why did we have to have a John Delaney on stage when we could've had a Mike Gravel? Such a shame.

Hopefully the field is narrowed down to less than ten candidates by September. The debate was bad to watch because each candidate gets interrupted all the time. Too many people are in the race who have zero chance of winning. As of now, I only consider Biden, Bernie, Liz, Kamala, Mayor Pete and probably Booker as legitimate contenders. The rest should drop out.

10 is guaranteed for September.

It could also be 11, if Gabbard does really well tonight and gets 3 more polls and a donor surge.

Steyrer is unlikely, because as a billionaire he will never get the 130K donors in time.

Can't he just put out an email that says "donate $1 to my campaign, and I'll send you $2!"

Or "donate to my campaign for a chance to win $50,000!"

Or "for every dollar donated to my campaign, I will donate ten dollars to charity!"

Is Tom Perez going to come out and tell us to be polygamous again?

Mike Gravel should have been here. Period.

Agreed. And wow - this is just plain rude. Gravel **QUALIFIED** on fundraising, and they won't even include him in their little 'who didn't make the cut' section.



Pathetic and mean-spirited.

The desperation in the air is palpable. This could be the last time some of these candidates ever stand on a presidential debate stage, and it shows.

Lmao CNN obviously did that just to troll Yang, give Bennet a question about automation and then move to Yang and ask him about the gender pay gap.
