Democrat Debate Thread Deux

Well this seems relevant. Room packed with party elites. https://t.co/sjtmlxkEtT https://t.co/RxQUZUguU5

"gdgm+" says the thread that follows says that "audience" members paid up to $750 per seat -- or had those seats paid for them.

Scrooge McC***k seems to have a more vociferous cheering section than you'd guess he would, absent the factor of money.

This couldn't be true, could it?

I was a guest at one of the debates.

Each candidate only gets five or ten guests each.

The rest of the audience consists of the very wealthy who can afford a $4,000 ticket, DNC insiders & elected officials.

Something to consider tonight with the audience tonight#DemDebate
