This was the best debate of 2024, but the bar was set pretty low. About 90 mins in the Socrates quote “Strong minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, weak minds discuss people” was screaming in my head. I was expecting more from Sam, but he could not get past personality and events. I'm not a Shapiro fan, but to his credit, he kept trying to bring it back to policy and ideas.

Look at his deflection at when Bari asks at (https://youtu.be/cTnV5RfhIjk?si=rhaZAR18qxUOZHhU&t=7675) "that you have TDS, Trump derangement syndrome. Basically, a hatred of Trump so profound, that impairs your otherwise, you know, profoundly good judgment."
Sam, as he always does, being triggered by the label TDS obfuscates. Why doesn't he then just answer the question (TDS removed) "Why is your hatred of Trump so profound, that you let it impair your otherwise, you know, profoundly good judgment."

Sam always looses it over the TDS label.
