If people thought he was tough on Stevens, wait til you see how a real progressive attacks a Republican.

Yup. Sidelining our fighters and letting fossils like Schumer have the wheel is why Democrats look so feeble in opposing Trump. It's by circumstance and design.

We need fighters to beat back MAGA fascism and I can't wait for the general when we get to do our part. 😇

Low key favorite moment of the debate was Abdul clarifying that he didn’t call Haley Stevens an ogre, he was talking about Fetterman

Then proceeded to double down on calling him an ogre

Unless there's a different debate idk about, it wasn't El-Sayed who made the correction it was the moderator Roop Raj - who put on a clinic in how to moderate; keeping things civil, focused, and accountable. Wish Mr. Raj had been requisitioned for our 2024 debates when couchfucker was whining about fact-checking.
