Summary
We’ve at last hit the final presidential debate. While this time around there were less personal digs and more focus on policy, we still didn’t escape the debate without some trending soundbites (cue “hambres”). And we finally got a discussion on immigration... sort of. But that’s where we fill the void. Julio Ricardo Varela leads a discussion about deportation, trojan horses, and rigged elections with Lauren Victoria Burke, writer for NBC News and The Root, and Angela Maria Kelley, Executive Director at the Center for American Progress Action Fund.
