Joe Scar didn't like last night's debate at all.

Scarborough apologizes for 'disaster' of 2020 Democratic debate on MSNBC (The Hill)

On the candidates, he focused his criticism on Biden, Sanders and Harris, and the debate over progressive policies especially upsets him.

Scarborough also criticized the Democratic candidates for adopting a slate of progressive policy platforms, including decriminalizing border crossings and providing health insurance through a public option to undocumented immigrants, suggesting that they would not be able to beat Trump with that focus.

“It was a bad sign for me, as someone who desperately wants to see Donald Trump taken out of office,” Scarborough said.

The debate may not have been pretty, but it generated more light than heat in this viewer's opinion.
