I watched to the first commercial break, disappointed at the lack of civility among the leading candidates toward each other and the moderators (not that the Dems would likely be any better). That's the world we live in today. Apparently that's viewed as the way to get votes. Maybe it works--I'm sure it's been studied heavily.

And even more disappointed at the responses (and lack of same) to the question on climate change. When asked to raise their hand if they believe humans have contributed to climate change, it immediately descended into mass chaos, led by DeSantis chiding the moderators for treating them like school children (raising their hands), but it was DeSantis who acted like a school child (and not a good one at that!). The verbal responses ranged from outright denial to blaming it on other countries. No one seemed to think that the US needs to take any action to reduce our own contribution to climate change.

Maybe I'm just turning into a grumpy old man, but I believe if humans can't find a way to rally together and solve the civility issues ("sharing", like we teach our school children) and climate change, the human race will bring about its own demise. Have a nice day!
