I am looking for a opinions on what Donny Deutsch said last night on Brian Williams

[turbinetree]

the tape loop starts around the 17:42 - 23:05 mark and what he said throughout his comments, and what struck you with his comments? Let me also say that I am not a big fan of Williams........................

For me it was the moderators and the tweets, and I agree with Deutsch, basically it as about distractions .....................while I was switching back and forth with the Twins game, last night.............................thanks everyone before hand...............

1. He's right. A lot of Sanders/Warren fans don't want to hear him

He is hitting the nail on the head. The potential for the Democratic Party to self destruct grows every day. We have to keep our eye on the ball and that is BEAT TRUMP

2. Oh for Christ's sake! He's full of it and he's not even a Democrat!

He knows as much about ordinary people outside his limited New York circle as I know about plasma physics.

4. Grape balls of fire!

3. I agree 100%. Every time AOC opens her mouth it sets us back, if we go on with reparations

and follow a the socialist agenda of Warren or Bernie we are toast. I turn on the Tv this morning and everyone is attacking
Joe Biden over absolutely nothing, it makes me sick.. We just as well cancel the election if that is our campaign.

5. I never discuss Sanders

but I gotta call BS on "the socialist agenda of Warren." That's like calling my grandma, who was a Southern Baptist, a progressive.

7. Please define Socialist...

People keep using the word, I would just like to know if you know what socialism is and why you would use it as a smear...

[pecosbob]

8. I was referring to it being used as a smear by the poster to which I replied

Nowhere on the planet but in the whirling political sideshow that is uniquely American would Warren or her policies be considered as anything but moderate. Call for equal pay, you're a radical feminist...call for a firewall between casino Wall Street and savings intitutions and you're a leftist...only in America. Harry Truman...yes; Karl Marx...no.

[Caliman73]

9. I was actually responding to doc03 as well.

Your response was clear to me. My question was aimed to get doc03 to define what Socialism is and it is bad. I understand why it is seen as bad in the US and it is because of ignorance of what the theory holds. It is because Socialism has been deceitfully linked with totalitarian communism. I am not saying that Socialism is great, or the way to go, but we continually cede ground when we run scared when the word "socialism" is thrown around falsely.

10. My bad...thanx

[doc03]

12. Because Republicans have made (word) poison in this country. I am in favor

of what Republicans call socialism like SS, Medicare, Medicaid, Unemployment comp and so on.
But the word socialism is poison in the states we have to win back.

[Caliman73]

14. The more we give in, the more they take.

We need to stop being afraid of providing for our people. You did not however, answer my question and I have more for you?

Are you okay with Republicans redefining words that already have meanings strictly to fit their right wing agenda? If so, why? If not, what do we do about it?

[doc03]

15. Ok call yourself and a socialist and see how far you get in PA, Wisconsin, Ohio

and Michigan.

[Caliman73]

16. I know that people are ignorant about the word. That's not what I am asking.

If you don't want to discuss, just say so. It appears that you are okay with people hating on a word and concept that they do not understand. If that is the way it is going to be then we have already lost.

11. I agree with him too.

First win the election and get Trump out of office, then we can work on the other stuff.

[redstateblues]

13. That is the truth. I'm cutting way back on MSNBC. They are desperate to drive Joe's numbers down.

This latest outrage is ridiculous. It drives them crazy that Joe is popular with AAs. They parade out AA talking heads that hate Joe. Trying to paint Joe as a “racially insensitive “? Gimme a break

[sarabelle]

6. I agree with him. I don't hold it against him for not being a Dem...neither is Bernie.

He is speaking the mind of the Trump supporters which he well knows. He has given nothing but sage advice even though we may not like it. Trump is a criminal and country needs to see him in that light. Being a racist won't get it. Trump is a criminal, against law and order, unpatriotic, a Putin/Bibi suck up and he put the interests of other countries before American interests.
