None of these candidates tonight were really looking qualified. Especially when CNN kept pissing me off with questions that caused the Dems to eat each other raw. (and not in a fun way) They need to start coming for TRUMP more!

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

I don't blame her, it doesn't disqualify her so why dwell on it. It's past crap that CNN wants to uponit7771 Jul 2019 #11
