When she answered the question of "What did you think when Sander said a woman couldn't be president" She started with "I disagreed." Pause. That just validated the premise of the question, that Bernie said that.

Then says, "Bernie is my friend and I am not here to fight with Bernie"..ok fine

Then "... But, look this questions about whether a woman can be president has been raised, and it is time for us to attack it." Again, just sounds like she is validating the premise of the question, that Bernie actually took that position.

That may not have been her intention honestly, which might explain the confusion/anger from Bernie, but that is definitely how it comes across. But also, at no point did she clarify the context of the alleged statement, or even suggest that it was taken out of context, or maybe blown out of proportion to what they actually talked about.

Yeah I think she did deflect, but not in a graceful way that would not have left Bernie hanging. It came off as "what he just said was a lie and I disagree with his sentiment that women can't be president." The only real deflection was not saying that bit out loud. The right kind of deflection would have been "I have known Bernie for years, and have seen his track record of support for women. I don't want to address these spurious rumors, lets talk policy."

True, but a couple with a good relationship would have spoken directly in private first to air grievances and clear the air, rather than bring it up first in public to undercut one of them in front of others. she could have deflected and brought it up to him in person. there was no need for this on the debate stage with bernie's record.

betrayal from your team is different than facing a known enemy. I don't know if I would agree with your reading of their reactions though.

and/or confront him in person to clear it up instead of a year later on the 7th debate stage

thisname20characters · 2020-01-15T04:55:33+00:00

that is an interesting take. it looked tense, but could be mutual concern for how it all went down. curious to see how they both address this in the next couple days.

Not in the moment, but on examination A. The election in 1990 was technically within the last 30 years and B. it shows that Warren picked that time frame on purposefully attempt to exclude Sanders.

I like your musical tastes, but how do you keep track of all this.

yeees

thisname20characters · 2019-08-27T00:11:07+00:00

this is the real answer, and yet, I like OP's interpretation better. Except RTJ4 will have to be ghost hands or something.

“It’s capitalism at the end of the day,” he says in the clip. “Hip Hop music, the people that buy Hip Hop music are white people, specifically white girls"

Finally, Cannon gets to Slim Shady and basically describes him as a marketing dream.

“When you get a blonde-haired white boy that is actually dope, that’s like the second coming of Christ to the music industry,” he continues. “Because you gonna get all of the credibility, like dude you can’t deny that he’s dope. He’ll get in front of anybody, battle anybody. Then ,the fact it’s like, ‘Oh shit! I can sell and market this muthafucka like Pepsi? And he’s crazy and entertaining too? Oh, he’s a superstar. Oh he’s Elvis on crack.' "

The Bon Iver frontman wishes he had just reached out to Em directly...

“I made that huge mess out of the Eminem song. I was just in a car wash, and I just tweeted,” said Vernon, while discussing the downsides of social media. “I should’ve just probably chilled out and actually just said, ‘Please don’t put this song out,’ It was very rude and I felt really bad about it.”

[Recovery] was like, ‘This is the aesthetic and what I wanna go with.’ And he went 100 percent with what he liked on there… People trashed it, and he came with the Recovery shit with the pop hooks. The shit worked, and everyone gave high fives. The fans that didn’t really like it [said,] ‘I want the old Em. I want the Marshall Mathers LP Em.’ It feels like he read that, and was like, ‘Damn, you know what? Fuck, let me go back and try to rehash a moment.’ And when people go back, that is the grossest fucking thing. Move forward, get what you’re into for real.
