With ten Democrats lined up and ready on the stage,

it was time to begin the third Democratic presidential debate.

And while most of the candidates used their opening statement

Kamala Harris decided to fast-forward straight

you've spent the last two and a half years

full-time trying to sow hate and division among us as--

and that is why we've gotten nothing done.

And now, President Trump, you can go back
