LIVE : CNN Debate Night with Bernie Sanders and Ted Cruz

[Donkees]

CNN anchor Jake Tapper and chief political correspondent Dana Bash will moderate a Town Hall Debate with Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders and Texas Senator Ted Cruz on the future of Obamacare at 9 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 7.

President Donald Trump has made repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act one of his top priorities while Congressional Democrats are opposed. Sanders, an opponent of repealing Obamacare, and Cruz, a supporter of the President’s healthcare agenda, will join Tapper and Bash to debate the fate of former President Barack Obama's signature legislation and the GOP’s approach to healthcare.

Sanders and Cruz, runners-up for their respective presidential party nominations, will also field questions from voters around the country at the Town Hall Debate, taking place at The George Washington University.

6. I love Bernie

But he keeps letting Cruz get away with comparing government run healthcare to government paid insurance. The UK has government run healthcare---and that is not what Medicare is. Cruz keeps equating single payer with the UK's government run system. I'm more than half way through and Bernie hasn't called him on his bullshit once.

He's letting Cruz get away with the "fear factor" in the debate.

He should smack that down.

Still---of course Bernie is right but Cruz is a very slick devil.
