Summary

What led to the circus that was Sunday night’s debate, and how does that reflect on us as a country?

Host Maria Hinojosa leads a discussion with Jamilah Lemieux, Vice President of News and Men's Programming for Interactive One, Wajahat Ali, attorney, playwright, and commentator, and Julio Ricardo Varela, Political Editor for the Futuro Media Group.
