Democratic Presidential Debate Round 2 Day 1 Highlights | NBC New York

Описание: The tug-of-war over the future of the party early in the 2020 season pits voters' hearts against their heads as they balance their desperate desire to find an electable candidate to take on President Donald Trump with their strong preference for dramatic change.

Ten Democratic presidential candidates faced off Tuesday for the second round of debate hosted by CNN at the Fox Theater in Detroit. Liberal firebrands Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren slapped back against moderate rivals who ridiculed "Medicare for All" during the debate. While much of the discussion was dominated by attacks on the preferred liberal health care policy, the issue of race emerged in the second hour. The candidates were unified in turning their anger toward President Donald Trump for using race as a central theme in his reelection campaign.

On the heels of a mass shooting in Gilroy, California, in which an Instagram account connected to the shooter referenced a white nationalist literature, Warren said "we need to call out white supremacy for what it is: domestic terrorism."
