This is the biggest win I've ever seen in a debate.

I'm not even particularly in love with Hillary Clinton, but she mopped the floor with him. She started off a bit shaky but really hit the zone mid way through and got confident. Trump started off shaky and fell the fuck apart. What a goddamn moron and a maniac.

@Tyler2ONeil: Trump said his son is 10-years-old. He is 11. #FactCheck

LMAO

Clinton didn't really do anything.

Trump sounded as dopey as Trump always is.

It almost didn't feel like a real debate.
What debate were you watching? She spoke clearly and coherently, and offered actual substance to counter his empty blather. Her answer on racial bias was exceptional. Her points on foreign policy revealed her experience and depth of knowledge. And Hillary called out Trump several times on specific lies, dirty dealings, and outrageous statements he's made. And through it all she looked confident and presidential.

She did plenty.

Yea, I'll agree with the this. So many embarrassing moments. It's troubling that he'll get away with so many of them.

He's so easy to get unhinged, yet he believes himself to be the candidate with the right temperament? But he's ready to blow up other countries ships because they're taunting? Is this real life?

Yes.
 
If I try to look at the debate objectively, on race, NATO, and women I think Donald faltered pretty badly, but otherwise I think he was basically winning each topic. I'd say the debate was probably a tie, if not slightly in Trump's favor.

I know the left thinks Hillary eviscerated Trump, but heartland people are going to see him as mostly being strong and his attempts to paint her as squandering her experience in politics were probably successful.

I think in the first 30 he had some sort of momentum. Incoherent. But he had momentum. He blew it wasting the entire start on the emails because lest was obviously going to ask about that later so it was taken off the table early. He wasted his breath on that he literally had no real trump card.

Hillary got in that ass

People saying Trump did great at the beginning do not know how a debate works.

That's the consensus from viewers, the media and pundits I'm seeing now. It's true and then Donald worsened as it went on and Hillary only got better. Her breadth of knowledge and experience shone through as it went on.
 
Hillary destroyed him, but the Trump base will see this and be unphazed.

They see him babbling incoherently and they'll think he's amazingly eloquent.

Yes. That was when he totally fell apart. And it was almost self-initiated. He just gave shitty answers and just unraveled from there.

I was honestly surprised how fast he started dropping off at that point.

I missed the whole thing. What happened?

Trump started out strong, devolved into a mess once the race topic came up, didn't really recover.

He also admitted to tax evasion on a public broadcast and nothing will come of it.

Exactly why I think he didn't do too bad, Hillary needed to go in harder and I don't think she did IMO.

lol. Some of you guys are too much. Its amazing how no matter the outcome some folks still worry or somehow find things to have turned in Trumps favor "somehow".

Even Fox think he lost, beautiful.

I mean, its so hilariously cut and dry, how could they not?


He got stomped.

And no, it won't "help him" and no it wont be a "wash". He lost, period. And its a negative. Period.

Me: "Jesus, Hillary looked professional and like an adult while Trump just kept saying Wrong and Wrong over her."

Some of my coworkers tomorrow: "Did you see the debate?! TRUMP TOTALLY PUT HILLARY IN HER PLACE!"

It don't matter.

None of this matters.

People see what they want to see. It doesn't matter if it happened or not.
 
As a Canadian, fix your shit guys. Rooting for you to make the right choice between the inanimate/racist carbon rod in a wing vs the actual person with a working brain, Red v Blue be damned.

Can't believe I was ever concerned for Clinton's performance in the debate. She won this. Certainly helped that Trump wasn't able to maintain the calm and stable facade he entered with. Hillary was just chill throughout, dropping facts everywhere; probably started out a bit nervous though, but once she got a crack at Donald - oh, boy.

Love that big mocking sigh of relief/disbelief after Trump's rambling lmao.

Also, fuck, I would've hated to be in Lester's position. I probably would've ended up throwing a chair at Trump for constantly interrupting, my goodness lol.
