Colorado Democratic Gubernatorial Primary Debate

Published | Video Starts at 15:22

We the people deserve a substantive debate, not characteristics. This is a substantive debate. Is it illegal? Does it affect Colorado? I would say the answer is There is no lawsuit that more affected Colorado than the lawsuit that more than 20 Democratic attorney generals bought to stop Donald Trump from separating children from their parents at the border. Was that not illegal, Mr. Attorney? We're going to talk about that. Was that not. We're going to talk about that issue. I just think it's important to know what we're talking about it right now. (15:22–15:35)

CLAIM
