Williamson drew applause from the debate crowd in Detroit several times throughout the night, including when she decried the "dark psychic force" that she said has been allowed to thrive under Trump.

"If you think any of this wonkiness is going to deal with this dark psychic force of the collectivized hatred that this president is bringing up in this country, then I’m afraid that the Democrats are going to see some very dark days" Williamson said.
