  • - Hillary ignored the DWS and DNC criticism for more Russia fear mongering.

    - she lied saying she never called the TPP the gold standard.

    - she referred to NAFTA as good again despite saying some years ago it was a mistake

    - she said crime in NYC is down but ignored that murders and violent crime is up

    - she said Trump's tax plan didn't touch on repatriation and corporate taxes but it has since it came out however long ago last year or whenever.

    - she ignored the point of 33,000 deleted emails (that weren't work related and were referred to as a "cover up operation")

    - she didn't acknowledge Sidney Blumenthal

    That's just what I can think of off the top of my head. The media won't fact check her.

    Trump could have done better - he needed to press harder in things like her campaign hiring DWS after she stepped down in shame, the immunity deals by the shady FBI investigation, etc.

    But it's by no means a loss for Trump unless you believe the media narrative.

    And Holt clearly didn't push Hillary at all he brought up one sided questions against Trump like the birther thing but didn't bring up any about Hillary's many questions for example - like the "cover up" thing.

  • Clinton was wearing an earpiece.

  • And I was drinking and watching the debate so no I wasn't posting rare pepes

  • The line of questioning would change shortly after she would touch her face

    aw comeon buck up - she did say the free college tuition thingy for you bernie lovers!

  • I like how they pressed Trump for the Iraq war and Hillary didn't have to say 3 words about it despite voting for it

  • I would rate it a draw. Trump played defense a little too much but some of that was the questions by Lester Holt who never asked Clinton questions about either Benghazi, the deleted emails or the Clinton Foundation. Openings were given to Trump on cyber war where he should have brought up Clinton's private email with top secret emails that were on a system less secure than Gmail.

    A draw helps Trump here and I don't see anything tonight that will hurt his momentum.

  • America votes 2016!! Aka You're all fucked!

  • Most online polling actually has trump winning. Plus he proved he can keep calm after all the baiting Hillary did. It's a win for trump.

  • I know how I'm voting... Football has been a rare commodity to come by this yr between business interests and traveling so,,, Football won hands down tonight.. Didn't watch one second.. 😁

    lol, is that a real tweet?

    My thoughts. Clinton wins this one on decision, no knockout. While Trump dominated time, he didn't use it effectively. Failed to press her on her emails and instead spent too much time explaining himself to her accusations, which was the weakest part of his game in the GOP race. Really missed a golden opportunity when she said "I've met a lot of people you've stiffed." Best response would have been, "I met a lot of women your husband stiffed." That said, Lester was a gigantic pussy of the highest order, maybe even a Bernie level pushover. BBC reports that the questions were favorable to the Democrats, and I completely agree with that. Trump shouldn't expect much differently in the next debate moderated by CNN and ABC reporters.

    Maybe VT but I think it was closer to a draw. Remember Trump was in a debate not one on one but two on one with Holt as well who pretty much acted as a shill here pretending to be an unbiased moderator. He went after Trump on tax returns and the birther issue but where were the questions about the pay to play Clinton Foundation. Benghazi, emails or other Clinton scandals?.

    I agree though the mistake by Trump was playing defense for too long and not pivoting questions and turning them around on Clinton. Since Holt wasn't going to do it he needed to realize he was on his own to bring up the subjects Holt was not asking.

    Holt knows who butters his bread and saw what happened to Matt Lauer who did ask Clinton tough questions. The liberal MSM went after Lauer with hammer and tongs for being "too tough" on Clinton. I think Holt was determined that wouldn't happen to him.

  • "I agree she has experience..."

    Then going for the killshot with his anti-women statements

    "It's not nice what she's done" ... "Yes I've said bad things about Rosie O'Donnell, but she deserved it"

    So would it be anti men to say that Michael Moore was a fat obnoxious idiot?

  • Holt asked Trump 15 questions compared to two for Clinton. During the "open forum" bits.

    Very fair assessment here, although to see some of you guys in denial is hilarious. A career politician should out-debate someone like Trump the first go around so it's really not a big deal. Trump got plenty of chances, he just didn't use them effectively.

    Also, are we not going to talk about sniffle gate people!

    It was more about him complaining Clinton wasn't saying nice things about him, then admitting he's said ten times worse to Rosie

  • Judging by the reaction here of Trump supporters, I think it's clear Clinton won.

    Ed has been posting everything he thought was unfair. Posting things he thinks Clinton lied about. If Trump won we would see a bunch of memes posted and other BS.
