WASHINGTON WEEK
WITH GWEN IFILL
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16 @ 9:00PM
The five Democratic White House hopefuls squared off in Las Vegas in their first debate of Campaign 2016. Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders dominated the discussion, trading jabs over Sanders’ position on gun control and Clinton’s evolving position on the Keystone XL-Pipeline proposal. But there was also agreement on one key issue: the controversy over Clinton’s emails when she was Secretary of State. “The American people are sick and tired of hearing about your damn emails,” Sanders said in defense of Clinton.
For analysis and perspective of the Democratic debate, the issues Republicans and Democrats are talking about on the campaign trail, the latest campaign financing reports and the president’s announcement to delay the full withdrawal of U.S. troops in Afghanistan.
