Scarborough: Last Night's Debate 'Disaster' for Democrats
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 06/28/2019 6:28:47 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

On today's Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough, speaking as someone who unequivocally proclaimed "I want Donald Trump to lose," said that last night's debate was a "disaster" for Democrats.

Scarborough made a four-pronged argument: first, Dems went after each other rather than attacking President Trump. Second and third: the unanimous Dem support for health-care-for-life for illegal immigrants, and for making illegal entry into the US no longer illegal, will lose the Dem candidate several states.

Finally, whereas Kamala Harris scored points with her attack on Joe Biden regarding busing, no Democrat today will actually support busing, moving children, for example, an hour from San Francisco to Oakland. Scarborough also said Biden's performance might have been the "most disturbing" he's seen since Reagan's first 1984 debate.

In other words, the candidates should have strategically lied.

He’s apparently upset that the dems are just being dems. What did he expect?

What did he expect? I suffered through it. They all said EXACTLY what you would expect them to say, exactly the way you would expect them to say it, right down to the wild hand gesturing that is now part of the leftwing style. They all want open borders, they all want socialized medicine, they all #orangemanbad, muh Russian meddling, etc ...

Someone should call these folks on their bullshit. There is no way ANY of these proposals will make it through the house, let alone the Seante.

On the other hand, Trump can point to his promises and show mostly wins.

Democrats now in favor of returning to the policy of forced busing from the 60s/70s, open borders, and providing all newcomers the full suite of welfare state benefits.

If there were an honest media, the Democrat party would be the size of the Green party.

How do you know they weren't lying? Democrats lie - it's their nature. They can't tell the truth or only the insane would vote for them. They may have thought they were selling a moderate version of what they really intend.

I know things can change but if the Dems keep their word regarding free health care for illegals, I can’t think of one Dem who can beat Trump.

The American people will have a fairly clear choice. The Democrats have avidly embraced socialism and open borders. The Republicans are capitalists and American nationalists.

Biden’s the most electable candidate they have - in that he has not completely bowed down to the identity politics, open borders, full blown socialism crowd most Americans will not support.

Seeing the rest of the Democrat field demolish him is glorious. More popcorn please! :^)

If the last two nights have been a moderated, toned-down version of what they want, then only the insane will vote for them. They don't have to come closer to the truth of what they want to be candidates for an asylum. They're already trying to out-Bernie Bernie.

“The Republicans are capitalists and American nationalists.”

Republicans?! No, President Trump and a select few Republicans are capitalists and nationalists. Many Republicans favor open borders and support capitalism only to the point where it profits their own wallet.

Biden might actually be capable of beating Trump, though I doubt it, but he will have to jettison everything that gives him that chance just to win the nomination.
