Bernie: while taxes will go up $500 on middle class people, health care costs will go down $5,000.

Free money baby!!!

Bernie is either a great liar or really stupid to be that old and still believe the bullshit he peddles.

Bernie is a terrible speaker. He looks like he's about to die up there.

Hillary is a master debater but it looks like her face just got out of the paint shop.

My healthcare costs last year were $0, so does that mean I get $5000?

Of course. Your employer will give you a raise to compensate you for the lack of premiums they'll have to pay.

Larry David is kicking ass

Bernie's answer on dictators and regime change is well intentioned—he's right that we? made serious mistakes in Libya and Iraq—but it's not credible when you're looking at the humanitarian crisis now unfolding in Syria, Yemen, etc. He needs to be able to answer what he would do about Assad and the Russians bombarding civilian populations in Syria, as well as the Saudi role in bombing the shit out of Yemen.

It was Hillary's idea to go after bin Laden...LOL.

Hilary's nailing him here, which considering that she's been wrong on most of this stuff, is pretty damning of his grasp of foreign policy.

When I see Hilary in that giant yellow top, I think "caution".

Oh, and it was awesome that Bernie brought up the overthrow in Iran in the 50s for big oil. Obviously, he has been reading my material here.

Beyond being against regime change, Bernie just doesn't get Syria. He left himself open on that question by pivoting weakly to Crimea and Hillary hit him in the mouth.

What, specifically, do you think is bullshit?

Bernie has also advocated for Saudi Arabia and Iran forming a coalition against ISIS. The man just does not have a good grasp on what's going on outside of the United States.

Now she's going below the belt, and it's not a good look. Dirty tricks and attacks like that are why people don't trust the Clintons.

You mean the fact that Saudi Arabis has been one of the largest supporters of ISIS?

He just needs a good foreign affairs advisor.

He is kicking ass on domestic issues, which is what most Americans care more about.
