Last night was instructive for patterns.
The GOP and MSM want fratricide (or sorocide) so like the WWE the script will have the usual stupidity: Chuck Todd as Mean Gene Okerlund and Individual-1 as Bobby the Brain, trolling for dollars and figure-four headlocks.
There could be a “winner” but the Kentucky Derby needed that long-shot so the MSM media frame “break-outs” could be numerous.
Some of the cues have come from last night, Ten minutes may be a “winning” threshold for speaking time. There will be a premium on “zingers” without necessarily mentioning Trump. Those who want progressive support have plenty of options, centrists not so much, but they will try to draw fire. For example Hickenlooper will probably take on Harris or Buttigieg, Biden might punch down, and gender issues will emerge this time.
Tonight’s drinking game will feature “corporate”, “climate crisis”, “rape”, and maybe even “racist” or “antisemitic”.
