Even from the most objective possible standpoint, Trump went on and on about how shitty America is and how divisive everyone is. How is that a productive attitude for a President?

I thought Lester did alright. I mean if that candidates are talking over him, what's he supposed to do? Walk up and out his hand over their mouth?

I didn't watch it, but looking at summaries makes it look like Holt did a good job calling him out on BD (Iraq, taxes), without seeming bias. Dude did his job, basically.

He let both of them walk over him, and he was being called out by Trump for everything. EVERYTHING. Guy has the facts right there, and let himself get walked over.
 
Republican idiot rep on CBS trying to defend Trump by saying he showed he can be presidential since he didn't get sucked in

WTF debate was he watching? Trump couldn't help himself but "nuh-uh" every five seconds and get sucked into ever single bad talking point he has.
 
My thoughts.

Trump: Better debater, more charismatic, more suitable for foreign policy. His domestic policies would be disgusting.

Hillary: More sane, totally better at domestic policies. She never wanted to address Trump head on though which worries me.

Conclusion: I still don't like either candidates.

Yes better on foreign policy. Things like addressing Iranians mocking American Navy men by blowing them out of the water (by the way that wouldn't start a war).
 
Trump is batshit insane, and his comments about global warming not being a priority made me rage but at least he is making his stupidity transparent.

Hillary is a cold robot spouting an irritating politically correct script in order to win and push the establishment agenda, I'd fear that even more.

You're projecting.

I can't believe Donald Trump kept pimping stop and frisk, even after being told it was ruled unconstitutional. He had absolutely no rebuttal to that beyond "it wouldn't be unconstitutional if we appealed it!"

He was literally advocating for unconstitutional practices, and openly returned to it multiple times.

What a moron.
 
cnn commentators struggling between being cordial and throwing hands that this fucknut is actually performing this way in a presidential debate
 
I thought Lester Holt did a good job.

Well I actually agree.

In an ideal world he would interupt the candidates if they spew lies or interupt, but he went for the approach to let the candidates talk and answer one another, and just repeat the question if they didn't answer it, which is in a way also pressing them if they're bullshitting.

He didn't do great, but not bad. And honestly, I don't know how you can do a great job moderating a shitshow with such high stakes anyway.

Talk over him and assert his role. I really hope they mute mics remotely or something in the next debate when talking time expires. This shit was absurd.

Clinton used a lot of bullets in the chamber, so I'm wondering what does she have for the next two:

Central Park Five
Muslim ban (it was only skimmed)
I'm blanking on the rest
More than trump that is for sure.

Obama created ISIS!
I didn't support Iraq!
Emails!

2 of which are straight up lies that have been debunked.
 
I guarandamn tee you Trump will say that Hilary was interrupting him the whole night, Lester wasn't giving him enough time to talk. Bank on it. This fucker always turns around what he gets criticized for on others, like clockwork.

Dude didn't even get 10 seconds into answering a question without blaming Hillary.

You're saying you fear political correctness and the establishment more than someone you just called "batshit insane".
