Here is your thread for the CNN Town Hall with Bernie and Hillary, 8pm ET.

Trump:”You can’t even have a rally in a major city in this country anymore without violence or potential violence. Whatever happened to freedom of speech? Whatever happened to the right to get together and speak in a very peaceful manner?”
Ted Cruz responds, saying Trump has created “an environment that encourages this sort of nasty discourse.” (AP)
So Long, Nancy
Nancy Reagan’s elegant funeral today brought sanity and continuity to the stage.

Trump Trumps
Trump’s restraint in last night’s debate is bad news for Democrats, showing he knows how to control himself. Therefore I am ready for Hillary. Trump looks clever enough to win.

Ignore her baggage and Trump’s appeal at your peril.
