9:22 PM: Man, Snarkders.

9:24 PM: Sanders must be positively devastated when Wolf quotes CEO’s attacking him.

9:25 PM: I’ll give this one to Sanders. What on earth was Wolf thinking referring to Sanders “contempt for American businesses”? Good lord. That’s an insane level of editorializing. Here’s the exact quote. “Given your obvious contempt for large American corporations, hue would you as president be able to effectively promote American businesses around the world?” That was so over the top, I at first thought it was part of the quote from the Verizon CEO.

9:29 PM: Did I mention, good lord, what was Wolf Blitzer thinking? Sanders is obviously a critic of corporate America. And it might not be unreasonable to say that he sometimes speaks about corporate America with contempt, you could say that. But a moderator isn’t supposed to make obvious and fairly invidious editorializing remarks.

9:31 PM: What is going on here? I feel like Trump’s going to come on to the stage and ask these two to take a take a deep breath and think for a moment about civility.
