I'm concerned about lower level verbal bomb 💣 throwing at the debate.

With 12 people on stage, nobody is going to get a lot of questions.
And the questions that they DO get will probably not be ones that they like.
I believe there will be a lot of candidates interrupting and talking over each other.
People like Steyer (on impeachment) and Gabbard (on foreign policy) will try to zing somebody to get noticed for the post debate spin and shows tomorrow night and Wednesday.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Gabbard might well regret it if she starts defending the Syrian retreat (& that's exactly what it is hlthe2b Oct 2019 #1

I believe the June debates each gave 10 candidates a total of about two hours... thesquanderer Oct 2019 #2

I'm concerned that Gabbard is going to give the right clips for commercials. TidalWave46 Oct 2019 #3

I think things will be so obviously deteriorating into chaos and the opportunity that ISIS was praying for, that Gabbard is going to be especially vulnerable.

As for Steyer, I think he might dig a bit about how delayed the impeachment initiation was and of course, take credit for pushing it along, but I don't see how it helps him to go much beyond that.
