5 key takeaways from the first Democratic debate by stableford & realchriswilson
Wednesday night brought the first debate of the 2020 presidential cycle, with 10 Democrats gathering in Miami.
Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota made the case for a public option, pointing out that it was the position of then-President Obama in the early stages of passing the Affordable Care Act. Klobuchar said she was “simply concerned about kicking half of America off their health insurance in four years, which is exactly what this bill says.”
The former Texas congressman was asked whether he would support taxing higher-earners, as has been proposed by some of his Democratic rivals. “This economy has got to work for everyone and right now we know that it isn’t,” O’Rourke said. “And it’s going to take all of us coming together to make sure that it does.”But O'Rourke wasn't the only candidate to flex his bilingual abilities on Wednesday. Castro and Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey did so too.
“We are hearing our colleague’s audio,” Todd explained. “If the control room could turn off the mics.”
