Trump says that his mic was defective, that Lester Holt was unfair to him and Rudy Giuliani thinks that Trump should sit out the next two debates. Trump lost this one badly. Not only did he lose it badly, he lost on every measure of the debate. Non-verbal communication: Trump sniffling, drinking water like a camel, leering sideways at Clinton, interrupting over and over and over and over; Clinton smiling, chin up....never drank a drop of water, the happy warrior. Policy: Clinton was the only one who offered anything resembling policy proposals. Trump couldn't answer questions about his own platform and on several occasions even went against what he has said before.....like on guns. He agreed with Clinton when she talked about gun control. Zingers: On the Latina beauty contestant, on debate preparation, on birthirism, on his taxes.....she laid it to him, and on many others. She also have her most succinct answer about her e-mails that she's ever delivered and it took all the wind out of the e-mail sails for the rest of the night. As @kluke said the real results will be reflected in the polls that emerge following the debates. That being said, it would be hard to argue that Trump even came close to tying this debate. He lost it and he lost it badly. His one moment of the night, which wasn't even a moment really was when he riffed on Trade.
Trump was truly pathetic, and his whines today only make him look worse. Just saw him on Fox denying that he was sniffling! Their main attack this morning against Hillary? That she was PREPARED. LOL. This is SNL comedy sketch material.
i did not watch it, scanned the papers this am, just as expected. what the media doesn't understand, the core Trump supporters do not care about debates, in fact, just the opposite. they want less talk, more action.
The major issue is that Trump did act crazy. Didn't say anything crazy. Arguably his worst trait wasnt reflected last night. YUGE victory.
The best part was HRC pimping her book, pimping her husband, and the CNN debate afterwards defending Clinton from starting the Birther movement.
This shit is still going on? Man I played video games last night and was happy because Miles was fired. It was a banner day and I damn sure wasn't going to watch the pathetic future of this country on stage and have my day ruined. Fuck that shit.
i don't think Hillary won by any means cause everything that comes out of her mouth is a lie. But it was blatantly obvious that the left wing media tool of a mediator made sure It would be no worse than at least a tie for Hillary. Didn't ask her about emails, Benghazi, the corrupt Clinton foundation, etc.
