Trump got smoked in that debate. He fell apart after the first 20 or so minutes and it isn't even hard to notice that.
Trump has been far more measured than Hillary on things like getting even more involved in the middle east. He also has a shot at repairing our relations with Russia. She seems itching to start WW III.
I'm for TRUMP, but I have to agree with this...very disappointed. He calls Hillary the "crooked one", but he spent way too much time defending himself like he was "the crook"!
Trump is not a very good debater. He won the republican debates through force of personality and his stance on immigration. He abandoned his winning themes last night. When Hillary attacked him on things like sexism, he should have hit back hard with her defense of Bill's predation of vulnerable women. He should have hit immigration and muslim terrorism in every answer. He should have called Hillary out for saying the Benghazi parents were liars. He should have linked poor economic performance to obamacare. Pretty basic stuff. He also should learn how to swat away impertinent questions, because obviously biased mods are going to be par for the course. Holt was way over the line, but since he is being praised by the same media who savaged Matt Lauer, don't expect anything to change.
Trump has better content...of course, but this was about presentation...Hillary was more savvy THIS time. Doesn't change my mind...though.
I was disappointed. I was hoping to find out his "plan" for getting Mexico to pay for the Wall -- the wall that's already "ten feet taller". I was also disappointed that he did not just explode, Monty Python style, when Hillary started reeling off her list of all the people he has cheated. But sadly, he just looked like he was going to explode and didn't really do it, with guts flying everywhere.. Then he got hold of himself, and told us he was too wonderful to say the things he could have said. I wanted him to whip out a ruler and prove once and for all that his dick is not little. That would have laid that issue to rest and been a fitting finale to the evening's festivities.
I thought hillary out debated him on style without content... but the takeway is the country knows hillary has done nothing for 30 years . Everyone knows that everything she said last night is a lie. People who want more free stuff or govt contracts will vote for her. But, I think last night sealed the deal. Trump will get enough independents to win. He was probably very right to not snap back at hillary about Bills rapes and abuses of power. Trump won all the big snap polls but cnns. Just look at the polls in the post above. == lindq have you not been very anti trump from the beginning? I get the sense you were acting like you went into the debate open minded? I would never vote for a crook like hillary. So that leaves me with one choice. You despise Trump for some reasons fine. But, are you really going to vote for a crook like hillary who gave away our national security secrets - has a top aid whose family is big muslim brotherhood? Where do you draw the line? If a voter accepts that sort of behavior from a future president. I would think if you are never trump you have to vote for stein or johnson or write in bernie.
