Ever notice that Bernie asks all kinds of questions---"How about this? What about that? Why do we

have such and such?" He'd rather try to interrogate Biden than offer reasonable responses to the questions he is asked.

5. In essence BS is an angry gaslighter trying to cast doubt on Biden and the Democratic Party

It's what a lagging candidate does, sounds like Trump at times.

7. Maybe the moderators should remind BS

that he isn't the 4th moderator. But who knows, I guess it's possible that this is the debate format that BS envisioned. I mean, we joked about it that he apparently thinks he'd be the moderator by mentioning all these questions in his speech and now he goes even beyond that.

11. It's not a bad thing to examine the systemic issues that got us to where we are.

12. Maybe he should have learned how to legislate

And how to win primaries in diverse states before dictating terms to anyone else about what needs done when and how.

He's done essentially zilch as a Senator. He's shown zero capability of working with others to get things done. Worse, he talks big, but he refuses to buckle down and be serious about how to back up those big plans by, you know, providing details of how he'd accomplish them. You know why? Because he has NO CLUE how to get those things done. He's writing checks that his ass can't cash. Or as we like to say here in Texas, he's all hat, no cattle.

Any fool can promise you something, but an adult follows through by doing the hard work of planning and following through. Let me know when he ever gets around to that.

Until he does, who the hell is he to make demands of someone else about what that person should do, when he's too lazy even to TRY to do the work to get those things done himself?
