Round 2!

Here we go! Another night of the #DemDebate even though I have to admit that the 1st night was much better than the 2nd. It was a bit rough this go round and it wasn’t just because of my lack of sleep.

For this podcast, we tried a completely different format. I wanted to jot down some questions that came up and try to tackle these from this type of approach. That way, you can see (I’ll post down below) the questions and you’ll know what more so is being discussed.

Now, we are still doing this on FaceBook Live, however, we still allow and want others to chime in to add to the conversation in realtime.

As always, let me know what you think ( Terrance.Blount@gmail.com @Terrance_Blount and Jeremy Thompson @ImaHockeyGuy )! Also note Jeremy and I completely disagreed on one of these touchy questions at the very end.

  • Debate Night 2
  • Who are you top 2 candidates? (Biden and Harris)

  • Weren’t the policies the same in the Obama era vs. Trump when it comes to the border?
