I don't mean to color anyone's opinion, not that anyone cares, but I didn't find it particularly great. For me, I thought O'malley did particularly well, and had the best moment of the night when he pointed out that there has been a zero net gain of immigrants coming over the border, thus eliminating the need for a wall, also good was discussion about military reform regarding reduction of nuclear weapons and redirecting upkeep funds towards more appropriate defense. But this article is succinct and easy to digest, so I opted for sharing this one.
