Harris v Sanders is going to be ugly ugly ugly.

Just look at how TYT/Secular Talk have already gone after her.

Big crowd tonight for Bernie in Chicago. Nina Turner had a great speech before Sanders took the stage.

HOUSTON — The groans erupted halfway through Bernie Sanders’s appearance Wednesday at a presidential candidates’ forum sponsored by She the People, a group that aims to drive up voter participation among women of color.

Before an audience of about 1,700, many of them African American and Hispanic women, the moderator asked Sanders (I-Vt.) how he would handle the rise in white supremacy. Sanders spoke of fighting discrimination and running a campaign “to bring our people together around an agenda that speaks to all people” — then returned to a familiar message on universal health care.

For many in the audience, that was insufficient. “Come on!” a woman shouted from the back, as others began to jeer and boo.

The reception reflected Sanders’s struggle to win support from minority voters, a problem that dogged his 2016 primary campaign against Hillary Clinton. Sanders has taken steps since to improve his outreach, including meeting with black leaders and talking more frequently about the difficulties facing minorities, but Wednesday’s event suggested the senator still faces challenges.

Yeah that was a sh**t show

Repulsive answer to an idiotic question.

Absolutely disgusting and should instantly disqualify him from the race for embracing such fringe lunacy. This answer is no better than neo-nazis supporting abortion because it kills more black kids than white kids. The idea that we're going to genocide children to stop the planet from getting 1 degree warmer is regressive nonsense. What if one of those kids is clever enough to develop new energy solutions or find ways to limit pollution? His answer is akin to saying the solution to a water leak is to get rid of all the water rather than covering the leak.

They should trot him back to the nursing home where he belongs.
