    1. @David Stanton too bad issues that will impact your life have no interest for you. What does that say about you?

    2. @Dr Morcoch too bad Fux “News” isn’t actual news. Than maybe you would know that Democrats are overll higher educated and more successful. Its the Rethuglicans who tend to be less educated and more likely to be on public assistance. And voting against their own interests😉

    3. Linda Scott, why do you want others to pay for your free stuff anyways? freeloaders like you don’t deserve to live. a dog is more valuable than you because you can eat a dog. you on the other hand, sombody still has to pay for you when you die. you are a blight to humanity.

    1. You’re all wrong she did as she was instructed by the DNC
      The DNC is corporate-controlled just like the Rep party.
      Both parties are ultimately serving the same masters, those masters said “F no Sanders cannot get to the oval office, make it so”

      Meanwhile not a single mention of the fact the DNC closed tons of Polling locations in areas more fanourable to Sanders voters. Depressing

    1. @Bad Bird I live in ground zero in WA state. There are not enough test kits to test the first responders to the facilty that had all the deaths, many are showing symptons. They are in quarantine now, but were out and about for weeks before they were quarantined. Likewise no tests for medical personnel. Its ridiculous.

      Yes I am staying home as much as possible as I am in the high risk category, but I still need groceries, the car needs service, pets due to the vet for shots…

    2. @Bad Bird maybe if the pandemic response team Obama put together in HHS hadn’t been cut, or the CDC budget slashed the US could have enough tests to do what South Korea does, where people literally drive up and get a swab test done. If there had been a plan in place after 2 months warning maybe we wouldn’t be so behind in out response.

      Imo Trump doesn’t want widespread testing because the numbers will go up and he can’t call it a hoax and keep the DOW up. Too bad no one with any intelligence believes him any more after all his lies.

      And dont blame Congress, getting rid programs in the Executive branch is up to the president, and the budget for the CDC was slashed by a Republican Congress.

    3. Linda Scott the car and the pets can wait . You don’t need those ASAP . But when this just popped up and they have to give every city in America test kits of course you won’t have 1000’s right away . Just be patient. It’s not the end of the world

    4. Linda Scott Congress just gave the CDC 8 billion . Go back to your safe space. You sound like you might be on the verge of a breakdown

    1. I just noticed that. I’m like. Did I miss something?! I’m running around the kitchen cooking. 😑

    2. Disagree. By the next day (sometimes within an hour or two after transmission), the full version posted on YouTube has been removed by the poster—often due to pressure from the broadcaster, meaning: we miss all …!

  1. What a brilliant journalist Rachel is. She listens intensely and we listen vicariously with her.

  2. We’ll see how much America’s corporations and banks love their country and its people when employees are sick in bed unable to work to pay mortgages, car payments, credit card debt.

    1. STAY UNDER YOUR BED AND WE’LL CALL WHEN IT’S SAFE TO COME OUT. THINK AROUND NOVEMBER 5TH OR SO. DO NOT COME OUT UNTIL AFTER NOVEMBER 3, 2020 OR YOU WILL DIE OF A COLD..

  3. Can we just have a moment and respect that this woman just lost an election and instead of going on vacation or whining and complaining she’s already back talking about our problems and talking about solutions.

    1. @Frank Blangeard you call that whining? Trump is the biggest whiner ever, has no understanding of any aspect of government except how to make money of it, and you call a clear and concise economic analysis whining?

      Trump loves the stupid.

  4. The smartest person in the room, she would have made a great prez. But once again misogyny wins out in the good ole US of A.

    1. Misogyny my a**.
      She’s a loser, just one of these modern, progressive, woke whamen that have no vision, plan or answers for anything, except identity politics and more wokeness. The Democrat Congress is full of these progressive woke wahmen losers and has never been more dysfunctional and incompetent. They’re a festering boil on the nation’s a** that desperately needs lancing.

    2. Actually you’re both wrong. She made a number of missteps when she got started, including taking too many talking points from Bernie — just before Bernie showed up.

    3. or maybe warren (pocahontas) is a liar , and completely incompetent
      manufacturing was not down, wall st was good unemployment was way down gdp was way up
      warren failing to be honest with us again
      this is why no one trusts her
      the lies

    4. warren was our pick in this household……i screamed at the tv . . . s h u t u p. . . it was the wine cave moment (trump will release a billion dollar juggernaut in ads operations againsted us and she comments on some rich democrats)oh. . . so u are wrong. . . and you could not comment on her youtube channel….(so there’s that)

  5. Sad to see her drop out, the USA just isn’t ready to have an intelligent, former law-professor with a _strong_ backbone looking out for them.

    1. Mario – Or woman, let’s not forget or be afraid to call out misogyny and sexism for what it is.

    2. Mario  No, President Trump is not a “shining example” of what a US President is supposed to be, but he is an perfect example of a leader who doesn’t deal in political double-speak, a leader who will not kowtow to the PC police, a leader who knows how the economy works, a leader who believes in that Legal Immigration is neccessary for stability and order, and most importantly a leader that will continue the winning ways that America has enjoyed the last 3.5 years. Everyone should call their broker or get on RobinHood and BUY, BUY, BUY. The first Wednesday in November the stock market will soar into the stratosphere like never before…..

  6. America missed the chance to have Elizabeth Warren as president! When I was jung, I had some LSD trips. Some were really bad. None was as bad as the Trump presidency! When does this nightmare stop?

  7. A series of five minute clips like this, featuring each candidate, would have served us better than those shoutfests they called “debates”.

    1. Yes, absolutely right. The debate format does not facilitate messages getting through. The abbreviated question and answer format and the back and forth between opposing voices — those two hallmarks of the debates make things unnecessarily incomprehensible. I’m afraid that the actual Presidential debates will be similarly flawed and work to the benefit of the Fat Guy who knows how to fight in quick attacks, not by any sustained focus.

    2. Hear, hear. Let’s hope any Biden/Sanders match up will follow some standard basic rules of debate. Citizens need to make this point with the DNC and especially—the host-broadcasters, for whom this is more about advertising and one-sided punditry than it is about content.

    3. Emsley Wyatt the debates are not done to serve us they are done to get ratings for the network.

  8. This brilliant lady is on the sideline and Biden and Bernie are at the top of the ticket. I just don’t understand.

    1. @Guess Guess blah blah troll talking points….YAWN! Warren still knows more about the real economy than Trump.

    2. EC Marks you just criticised someone for using repetitive warren talking points and then used repetitive trump talking points. I think you may have a case of what republicans call ‘trump derangement syndrome’.

    3. So true, Nikki. And I do not understand why people continue to shred her on these boards. Bizarre.

    4. America is too stupid to support the best prepared most thought contender for our highest office.

      The silliness in the comment section is the perfect illustration.

  9. I wonder if any of the people who tried so hard to tear Warren down this past year (including Bernie) could approach the level of erudition and command of facts she displays in answering just about any question put before her. Why are “progressives” supposed to be so excited by a slow-talking old man who repeats the same generic talking points at every opportunity?

  10. Too smart to be a POTUS: the voters will reason: “she’s thinking too much, therefore she must be wrong.”

    1. As soon as she announced, I thought uh-oh, too smart. Many in this country revile intelligence and many even fear it. And when it’s coming from a woman it is especially abhorrent.

  11. What she articulates problems and solutions instead of just saying everything’s the biggest and best?!?!

    1. We don’t vote based on smarts….unfortunately. America has a “Daddy-Issue/Savior complex” problem.

    2. @Marcus Anderson At the end of the day, people were frightened. Biden represents safety and a return to the Obama days. And once he got rolling, the last minute voters, lemming-like, jumped aboard. IMO his policies are tepid but he can now be America’s Dad. I was in NYC during the bombings and Mayor Rudy filled the same role.

  12. COVID-19:  Don’t believe Traitor-‘n-Thief Trump, our prevaricating pretend-President–it’s not 2% milk.

  13. She is so right ::Bernie supporter are so like Trumps people ::BS is a good man but his supporters are not !!

    1. Nope. Her grasp of the issues is better than anyone’s. I just hope whichever Dem candidate wins will put her smarts to use in their cabinet.
