Night two and it's going to be interesting. |
The second night of the Democratic debates. The final night will have the former Vice President Joe Biden go against three potential candidates who may take him down a peg.
After last night's fireworks, CNN is gearing up for another round of Democrats shining and fading.
Here's the rundown.
Many of the Democrats will say that their number one goal is to defeat Donald J. Trump. We just can't just say that. We need to have a vision to appeal to voters. Keep Trump and the far-white to the sidelines. Use whenever necessary.
As explained earlier, the Democrats have to find a way to appeal to voters. They can't win back the Barack Obama voters who went to Trump. Give it up. It's time to look for voters who aren't blatant idiots and die-hard conservatives.
The Democratic National Committee, chairman Tom Perez, the NAACP, the Urban League of Detroit, the Michigan Democratic Party and CNN host tonight's debate at the Fox Theatre in downtown Detroit.
Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren fought against the moderate Democrats. |
The state of Michigan went to Donald J. Trump in 2016. He won the state by three points. The state was considered a Democratic safe hold. Now it's considered a swing state. While Ohio is trending more towards Republicans, Democrats need to hold on to Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Minnesota.
The states are crucial more than ever. If the Democrats fail to win these states, they'll expect four more years of Trump.
Trump has a 60% chance of winning reelection. Trump has 49% chance of winning Michigan.
The two and half hour debate will discuss a wide arrange of topics.
The candidates make it or break it moment comes tonight. Some candidates will shine.
Some will eventually burn out.
Who will win the CNN Democratic Debate in Detroit? (Expect trolls to pick the dumbest answers)
Andrew Yang
Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI)
Julian Castro, former Housing and Urban Development Secretary
Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO)
New York City mayor Bill de Blasio
Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA)
Gov. Jay Inslee of Washington
Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY)
Joe Biden, former Vice President of the United States
Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ)
Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton and Miramar, Florida, Mayor Wayne Messam, two candidates who did not make the first debate stage, will also miss the second debate after failing to qualify.
Billionaire investor Tom Steyer and former Pennsylvania Rep. Joe Sestak, two candidates who recently got into the presidential contest, also failed to qualify for the second round of debates.
What I expect from the Democratic presidential debates is this word vomit.
Note: This list will be added to the next posting and revised.
Last night's debate.

Flyover country.

Each candidate will interrupt one another.
Each candidate will say something that's going to be a flat out lie.
Each candidate will say they're more prepared than Trump.
Each candidate will say, "As president, I will....."
CNN will take a shot at Fox News or other networks.
CNN will have a plant question. Some progressive or conservative agitator will pick up on it.
Tulsi Gabbard, Michael Bennet, Jay Inslee, Andrew Yang and Julian Castro will get little talk time.
Like Marianne Williamson, Andrew Yang will get trending on social media and get the junk food media talking about something.
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will take the gloves off. After Harris played on the racial aspect of Biden, then a senator, the former vice president will start going after Harris for the California criminal code and her time as San Francisco prosecutor and Attorney General of California.
Bill de Blasio will be grilled about the dirty cop who chokehold Eric Garner and the potential backlash of angry New York City residents. De Blasio will also face questions about his feud with Trump.
Julian Castro will be grilled about immigration detention centers and Texas no longer loving him.
Kirsten Gillibrand will be grilled about Al Franken and the MeToo Movement.
Fox News hosts Sean "Softball" Hannity will probably find some stupid way to troll it.
MSNBC will cover the debate aftermath and Trump's racist remarks towards people of color.
Expect agitators to say this is a "make or break" moment for the Democratic candidates.
Trolls will be on Twitter tonight "fact-checking" the candidates.
Politifact, The Washington Post, Snoopes, Factcheck.org and RealClearPolitics will do official fact checks on the candidates.
Trump will post remarks on the debate.
So here you go. Watch the debate on CNN and it should be an open livestream.
If CNN does play through YouTube or Twitter I will update this.
