Analysis: Who won the DemDebate in Las Vegas on Wednesday night?

His low point came when he refused Warren’s demands to release women he has worked with from nondisclosure agreements — and was booed for saying that"we're not going to end these agreements, because they were made consensually."

Bloomberg pitched himself as a mayor, a manager and a philanthropist. He also took a shot at Bernie Sanders, the front-runner in recent national polls, calling him unelectable:"I don't think there’s any chance of the senator beating Donald Trump." Later, he added,"The best known socialist in the country happens to be a millionaire with three houses.

It gave Sanders the space to press his righteous indignation against an economically unequal society. He spent much of the debate ripping into Bloomberg, repeatedly calling him part of a ruling elite that has manipulated Washington to establish policies that benefit people like him personally. He alluded to a"corrupt political system bought by billionaires like Mr.

She confronted Biden, Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar as well: “Amy and Joe’s hearts are in the right place, but we can’t be so eager to be liked by Mitch McConnell that we forget how to beat the Republicans. Mayor Pete has been taking money from big donors and changing his positions. So it makes it unclear what he stands for.”Warren desperately needed a boost after poor finishes in early states, and turned in one of her strongest and feistiest debate performances yet.

As Dems use your heads in voting today. Don’t use “euphoric” emotions of momentum cloud your judgement. Think realistically and examine your conscience on who really has the best chance nationally.

Hands down President Donald J Trump.

Pete won hands down!! TeamPete all the other candidates had to yell or cry or whine - Pete is for real President Pete!!!!

The civilized citizens lost!

Everyone lost! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Buttigieg

Trump

BernieSanders won! Because we want him to be our next POTUS46

Donald J Trump (bigly)

BERNIE &WARREN

Trump2020

Nobody cares as we are all disgustingly sick of this horridly negative dog and pony show that is sadly known as a 'democratically' sanctioned primary season.

No winners except POTUS...sadly American people were biggest losers as self preservation took center stage and the moderators were useless to deliver the proper questions and structure to discuss the most relevant issues!

Not Chuck Todd.

This Democratic Socialist Party Debate was proof that there is NO viable contender and that Bernie and Buttigieg both cane from and support Communism! FOX40 realDonaldTrump

Trump

Trump.

Trump!!

Bloomberg

I’m going with Amy

With that crowd Donald Trump wins

Donald Trump

TRUMP

Yes, Trump won!

Trump

Why did you clip out the question about a brokered convention out of the debate in the video you uploaded of the full debate to youtube?

Warren beat Bloomberg; Bloomberg certainly lost. Unclear that all the fighting actually articulated any new positions.

Turbotest Trump

Bernie!!!!!! :D

SNL won! They'll have a field day with this one!

Trump won again

Donald Trump won the debate last night

No one

“Everyone except Bernie.” -NBC

Horrible debate, too many petty/silly arguments. Gotcha politics isn't going to get anyone elected.

Biden

Debate, or brawling

TRUMP 🇺🇸

Warren couldn't beat Clinton and Clinton couldn't beat Trump. But you think Warren will beat Trump? The math is simple!

All the Russia Russia Russia and now the Democrat party is communist

Trump

Trump

Trump

Amy was strong, . Time for a women in the White House

I hated the whole thing

MayorPete

That was no debate. Your moderators were shsmeful. Ask questions that matter, not questions meant to excite. I stopped watching for that very reason. Ask them how they will reduce the proliferating US debt? National Security issues, NATO, IRAN, SYRIA, etc.

Absolutely Love EW leaning toward not voting for her so no inherent bias here but there can be no doubt EW WIN THAT DEBATE

On a socialist platform, everyone got a trophy! 🤓

Biden warren

realDonaldTrump won 😂

I've been a regular viewer of but their panels to cover the primaries are unwatchable. The snarky clairecmc , hyperbolic SteveKornacki , smug chucktodd , chameleon SteveSchmidtSES . I'm done. I'll watch maddow and Lawrence but I'm done.

Warren

Warren and Amy. Joe held his own.

Lol

What did we hear at the Debate Amnesty for illegal aliens..”Dreamers are our Future” Free Healthcare for Illegal aliens..”It’s their Human Right” Free College for entitled people...”The Gov owes them” And Our taxes are going up so we can pay for all this🤦‍♂️

Trump

Trump

Trump

I know who lost. NBCNEWS and the moderators. Hardly anything on immigration, nothing on gun control or rule of justice. But you better know the name of Mexico's president. FFS.

Trump

NBC AND DEMOCRATS HIDING ABORTING BABIES. All Democrat candidates support every method of aborting babies. To vote for a democrat presidential candidate is to vote for aborting babies.

Donald Trump won..it looks like Bernie is going to be the nominee and nobody in their right mind should vote for a Socialist, especially a rich one.

Biden/Warren. Both were, for the most part, calm and collected

Trump

ewarren

TRUMP 2020.

That was the worst moderated Democratic debate yet. No tough questions. Moderators picked on everyone but Biden. Basically “Food Fight”. I did enjoy Lester Holt getting nailed by Bernie.

Trump. Not even close.

BidenHarris2020

Warren won, clearly. But it wasn't a debate. It was an hour release of desperation.

Donald Trump, Democrats tried eating themselves

President Trump!

Trump.

Bloomberg looked like a deer caught in headlights. This was first glimpse America had of him beyond his scripted media campaign & it was devastating. He isn't likeable & lacks charisma. To be elected he needs both. All the money in the world can't buy it. BloombergScorched

Elizabeth must have been a lawyer, her dirty tricks to get Mike flustered did not work. Mike kept his cool. Only Amy got flustered, I thought she was going to punch Pete. Mike & Pete (VP) 2020!!!! Pete needs his own show...dang he holds nothing back no matter who you are!

A bunch of school kids raising their hands to say nothing. Whole debate discusting.

Warren and give her credit Please! TeamWarren

Is “feisty” a word EVER used when talking about men? Just sayin’

WARREN!!!

Trump won

Trump won. Hands down. The American people lost. Hands down.

Unfortunately..... Trump won. It's just that simple. It sure wasn't the Dems or American people.

Warren did

No one win except Trump. They all suck!

Pete

American people lost.

Bloomberg. (Mr. Bloomberg please dm me for address to where you can send my check).

I would love to see Warren debate Trump! 🤼‍♀️😏

Liz!

Warren

Trump and Sanders

Stop analysis over and over and over..... vote democratic to bring and keep democracy and freedom . Remember healthcare and preexisting conditionsvtrying to be knocked down by Republicans .... remember the time of clean air and water .. vote dem

If the Democrats want to win next elections they better stop attacking each other immediately.

When is MSNBC going to really go behind who Sanders is, and what he has stood for for years. Can he get Senate and congressional support if he is elected?

Well who do you call a Democrat? Because those that are ahead are SOCIALISTS. The one who won is President Trump, He is working for the 'common folk' 😎🤓🧐 The ECONOMY is doing GREAT. Why Change

Trump.

No one. They we're attacking Trump.

Unfortunately, Trump

Warren

Trump lololololololololololol

No one! Instead of addressing issues they bashed each other. I stopped watching after 30 min

Donald Trump won. Ugh.

RiNO Trumplicans... Dem debate was a sophomoric feeding frenzy. Feeding right into Trump’s divisionary tactics. WTG Dem candidates. Not looking good for 2020

Elizabeth Warren

BernieSanders received another donation from me today. Keep up the great work. TheTimeIsNow Bernie2020 NotMeUs

Y’all need to get along cause I’m counting on one of you to wipe the floor with trump. anyonebuttrump2020 stopbickering

MAGA MAGAROLLERCOASTER

Trump won the debate

Warren. Easily.

Pete and Bloomberg

Answer: RNC - Dems are so stupid.

Who won? Trump won because all Dem candidates wanted to do was berate each other rather than attack Trump

Trump again. No need for Trump to campaign

WarrenForTheWin WarrenForPresident Warren2020

TRUMP WON !!

Not MikeBloomberg

Bernie Sanders. Work class champion. Consistent on policies for 30 years.

Trump won....

Trump

None of them! It was a fiasco. They better get it together and fast!!!

Why should we get rid of healthcare for Sanders this will get Trump re-elected! Why bother watching the demise of this party! I don’t want to vote in November at this point! Sanders and Warren Suck!!!

No 1—It was an argumentative joke as the do nothing but complain losers spoke crazily. It was a sideshow of clowns exiting a VW Beetle or Keystone Cops episode w/sound as they told us how bad being wealthy is, they’ll raise taxes & WRECK the economy—We’ll all b poor EXCEPT THEM!

President Trump

Trump

Pete kicked Amy’s ass

Who won? Whoever didn’t watch it.

Mike is done. Liz is nasty. Bernie a babbling socialist. Joe was he even there? Amy I don’t understand her points. Winner winner is PETE the mayor.

Trump!

Shit flinging circus is all it was.

Biden & Warren

To be honest. The fake Indian.

Warren again failed to layout any vision for her presidency because she was too focused on tearing into the other candidates with her scripted debate zingers. Hey Elizabeth... you didn’t give anyone a reason to vote for youfailingcampainleadballoon

ewarren Warren2020 MadamePresident

Trump

Warren and Biden . It’s a 3 person race at this point . Bernie , Biden , Warren.

Warren absolutely had the best night. I think Bernie has a pretty good night as well.

realDonaldTrump won this debate!!!!

Warren handled herself very well! Bloomers was a BIG disappointment!!! Biden was his usual dumb self! Buttigieg and klobuchar were typical! Bernie was getting Red Faced! I his head was going to explode!!!!

Honestly, no one won. This debate just hurt the Democratic Party.

Biden and Warren were great. Bernie was his usual self, very good. Pete did ok but came off a bit mean with his constant badgering of Amy who didn’t do so well. Bloomberg was the clear loser, he’s no Democrat or friend of working people.

Trump

Did anyone notice that the ‘pregame’ came from the “SPIN ROOM!”

realDonaldTrump

Trump still gonna win.

Warren proved herself last night. I finally can say who I will vote for. President Warren sounds good.

Warren

You know who won, and keeps winning due to the FakeNewsMedia continued incompetence

Trump! KAG2020LandslideVictory

Trump

Winner: Warren Loser: Bloomberg

Trump

Trump. It was a disaster!

Warren by 20 miles. She DESTROYED Bloomberg, then torched Bernie. Then she steamrolled over Biden and Amy and threw shade at Pete. It wasn't close. Biden proved he can't win a debate to save his life much less take on Trump, Warren proved she is the only one who can.

Not Mike but he still gets my vote.

Trump

They all lost they keep punching each other and not trump.

The question of the president of Mexico’s name for Amy really frazzled her... but worse was Elizabeth’s defending her like if she was her daughter... that was too creepy...

Bernie

Easy trump

The electorate lost.

MIKE BLOOMBERG WON THE DEBATE, HE WAS THE ONLY PRESIDENTIAL PROFESSIONAL ON DEBATE STAGE. THE REST WERE CRAZY GANG BULLIES, ESPECIALLY ELIZABETH WARREN AND BERNIE SANDERS.

FireChuckTodd

Tulsi2020 clearly the winner doing her own civil town hall and not engaging in this shit show debate.

Mike and Pete were the only ones that kept their composure... humm Mike and Pete 2020....

Warren

Bernie and Elizabeth both had an excellent night.

Bloomberg is actually the only decent candidate on the stage, that's also not really saying much since they are all trash. Trump in a land slide! Trump2020

Trump .

Madame 46th President Elizabeth Warren sounds about right!

They all Won! In a Field of Losers, they’re all Winners 🦶🏾

Mp

Elizabeth

Warren and then Bernie

Bernie and Warren had the Strongest performance.

🇺🇸BIDEN2020🇺🇸

Trump

Who watched the debate is the better question.

طالب أمريكي في جامعة كاليفورنيا يقول لزملائه إن خطته بعد التخرج من الجامعة هي الذهاب إلى إسرائيل والإنضمام إلى جيشها بهدف قتل الفلسطينيين !!!! المصيبة أن هؤلاء يتهموننا نحن بالإرهاب !!!!!

How are you analyzing the winner,by the Candidate who launched the most vicious attacks against their opposition concerning issues that occurred years and years ago?

Warren!

No question...SenWarren

I believe Sen. Warren and Biden did well ....

How sad, the Democratic Party couldn’t come up with better candidates, NONE of them had a presidential qualities, With those pack, A Trump re-election is certain

Warren for Pres Bernie for Vice Let's fix this before trump believes he really IS Hitler and starts doing more than just putting Mexicans in concentration camps, attacking the free press, demeaning and belittling anyone who believes different than him, puts his buddies in control

Bloomberg had the best 3 second soundbites. They were quick, to the point, well rehearsed, and delivered with excellent timing Americas most famous socialist is a millionaire with 3 houses

Didn’t watch the debate but this picture says Biden.

Trump.

Didn't I answer this already? Warren

Well we certainly know who lost the debate, and his name is Mini MikeBloomberg . I'd say that joebiden won the debate and sensanders came a close second. DemDebate

Warren

BernieSanders

Y'all forgot to mention that Chuck Todd lost the debate.

AndrewYang won again YangIsTheFuture

Warren

Nobody, but Trump and his cronies are tripping. So, circle the truth and fight at his many Dirty Donnie weaknesses. Anyone but the Trumpian GOP.

President Warren WarrenForTheWin

Was it 'no mularkey' Joe?

President Trump

And the winner is Trump 2020

ewarren

Debate means jack. Trump was horrible at the debates he still won.

Trump 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Warren.

Donald Trump won, not one of them looked presidential.

Trump

Donald Trump.

It was just a big fight against each other so badly that we turned it off

Warren

Warren won Vote4Warren

Sorry I missed it

Donald Trump.

Truthfully with all of the childish attacks on each other SADLY I would have to say Trump won

Since this was the poorest run debate, it's hard to determine any really Dem. winner. But if there was a clear winner it was the GOP. The Dem. candidates look like a cluster f--k. So focused Mike they forgot to mention any really good plans to reduce the deficit.

You analyzed but you don’t register an opinion (and back it up) about who won

Trump did .

The American people because they now have seen how insane and anti-freedom this party is.

PeteButtigieg is the only candidate who remains level-headed. I want a level-headed veteran in the Oval Office. DumpTrump PeteButtigieg PeteForPresident PeteForAmerica

Mayor Pete 😁🇺🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇨🇦

.POTUS ❤️🇺🇸👍

Who cares nobody was watching.

Trump2020. just fast forward please! These debates are painful.

And none of them pressed Bernie, aside from Pete, especially warren. It was a crap show.

The TV ratings🤣

Trump!

I don’t trust Pete one bit, it’s the grin while he’s trying to sell people on his diplomacy skills.

Las Vegas did; thanks for the money you all spent here

Sanders

Joe did! He's the only candidate who acted like a real stateman, and not like a participant in a playground shout down. ConservativesForBiden BidenConservatives

The Spundits gave it to Warren, let her and Bernie split the 25% of the hard left.

Warren and Sanders splitting 25%. Remember the rest of us 75% are not hard core socialist. Amy or Mike better candidates. Biden looked good tonight. Pete looked and sounded spiffy but could not even win a statewide contest. The helium candidate. Uplifting but no substance.

I like Mike

Trump did.

Biden2020

Trump. Trump won

Donald Trump. Sadly.

I won't vote unless Bloomberg is on the ticket. Self made billionare

I’m split: Warren, Amy & Biden🙏, Pete Lost me on this debate, Sanders has his following for a Free for All, which won’t get anything passed until Senate is flipped (if/when), Appreciate Bloomburgs Anti tRump ad’s, But hope he isn’t our Only hope against tRump in Nov. to Vote 💙

Trump won. The moderators should have asked questions that would let the viewers see how they would take on Trump instead of each other. The attacks on a Bloomberg was disheartening in lieu of the fact he may be funding whoever the candidate is. It was over all ugly to witness.

Trump

WARREN WARREN WARREN!! 😎

Trump

Trump did once again. MAGA

No one! As an independent, I am tired of the fighting. All I know about the democratic candidates is they know how to look up the voting record of the other candidates and they hate Trump. I need someone to tell me their plan on key issues if elected.

Analysis? How about just show their debate scores? Unless ... it wasn’t a real debate.

people saying warren must really enjoy her immature ‘roasts’. she’s 70 and she speaks like our current president: a child!

Trump (I hate Trump)

Every single person on that stage is a better candidate & more presidential then the orange crap stain that conned & cheated its way into the Oval Office. votebluenomatterwho

Bernie Sanders

FireChuckTodd

Trump

Donald J. Trump

Liz achieved her goal on exposing Bloomberg. Why do we all skip the fact that Sanders credibility and honesty was highlighted by more than 1 of his opponents?

Amy is forgettable and doesn’t seem to add anything unique.

Bloomberg got roasted. Warren was fire and won it. Bernie was attacked the most but it will continue to backfire as he just continued his message. Pete finally showed his savage debate skills but he lacks substance and showed arrogance. Biden can barely keep up.

Sadly, no one 😔

Is it really valuable to say you 'won' this? What really got accomplished? We would do much better to have 60 minute sit-downs with each candidate where they do nothing except explain policy. This is just picking on each other like high schoolers. Embarrassing.

Trump

President Donald Trump won tonight.

CNNYangJones YangVanGang yanggang StillVotingYang

You know who won...

Amy

Why so much yelling. Buttegieg is the adult in the room. Ps I still vote for Bloomberg over trump

Elizabeth

.realDonaldTrump !!!

Not anybody in America

Trump.

Neither of these 5 have impressed me.

Trump

The winner was SNL. That debate was a gold mine for the cast. A plethora of options. Unfortunately, all I see now is a bunch of actors, similar to Bush/Ferrell. Whenever I see Bush, I see Ferrell. No different with this group. Dems should be concerned.

This is definitely worth passing along, hopefully America's Youth will hear these words and refrain from falling into Socialism, or worse, full-fledged 'COMMUNISM'! In a COMMUNIST STATE you can be CRUCIFIED:

Oh-My-God-OmniabsoluteGravitational-Constant: Thus DEBATES are opinions, whereas ACTIONS are facts. Abeit, the winning ticket for Democratics for 2020 needs to be 'Michael Bloomberg+Hillary Clinton' for the 2020 🇺🇸Presidency. (rest, dress & finesse)!$!$

Warren won the debate

Not even close: Liz!

We are sooo screwed ..

That's easy. Donald Trump.

Tom Steyer did a great job !

Trump.

No one. Least of all America. Rs & Ds have become a bunch of 5 year olds. It’s embarrassing.

It was a wonderful food fight.

Not the moderators!

It’s not time to attack Trump yet - why waste time on it? Everyone already knows what a POS he is; he’ll get his turn in the barrel later. Tonight was for drawing contrasts and winnowing down the dem candidates - and ewarren won hands down.

They’re all losers. I can’t believe people take any of these buffoons seriously 😐

I can’t believe this is who we are stuck with though. Al Franken should have run.

POTUS most likely.

Donald Trump

Berrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrnie baby. Boooo ya! Sorry, but I love him.

Pete looks like the best choice. Warrens a socialist. Bernie is too. Bidens tired. Amy can’t stand being attacked.

Donald Trump

Donald Trump 😂😂😂😂

No one on that stage!!!! 😝

Amy hands down!

Pete Buttigieg was the level headed adult in the room.

It was a total shitshow. It was beautiful.

I as a libertarian would only support Mrs Senator Klobuchar... otherwise Trump amyklobuchar realDonaldTrump

None of them

Authoritarians rose to power: Vladimir Putin in Russia, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan in Turkey, Viktor Orbán in Hungary, Jarosław Kaczyński in Poland, Rodrigo Duterte in the Philippines, Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil, and Donald J. Trump in the United States

ewarren won tonight. BernieSanders, and then the fall off... TYT we're tired.

Trump

Trump.

Not the one who lost that's for sure XD

None of them are going to beat Trump. They need to get it together ASAP! Stop attacking each other. 😩

Trump won.

Bernie Sanders with the Buttigieg endorsement

I thought I was watching wrestling when Bloomberg was power slammed off the turn buckle by Elizabeth Warren. Turns out that it was the debate.

Left better hope Klobuchar only chance

Gabbard.

Trump won and will win in November. What a sh*^show.

Not sure how you forgot to report that Mike called Bernie a communist.

Trump!

Trump.

Better question is, who got hacked while staying at MGM?

No one. And disgusting trump laughs.

Didn't watch and really don't care 🤷🏿‍♂

Bernie because no one touched him. Everyone was so concerned with the new guy that they let the clear leader in all polls chill out on stage.

Definitely no one on stage won it.

The people who didn’t watch and get lied to for two hours.

This debate did nothing but confuse and frustrate undecided voter....this is exactly how Trump win again. Exactly.

Who won? This guy 👇 Trump2020LandslideVictory
