What Went Down On Night One Of The First Democratic Debates

O’Rourke and Warren have both hit the idea that wealth is corrupting politics. There’s evidence they’re right. But as I wrote about earlier this year, solving it is unlikely to be easy.

Cory Booker mentioned the kind of judges he’ll appoint. Will be interesting to see if judicial appointments become a theme for Democrats, given how big of a focus they’ve been for the Republicans under Trump.

It’s early, but it seems like everyone is going over time so far. With 10 candidates and less than 120 minutes of debate, every second will count for them.
