  • "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.

    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.

    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.

  • The bias of Holt was obvious with the negative questions asked about Trump and the lack of those questions for Clinton. All things considered Trump didn't do badly considering it was a 2 on 1 debate with Clinton and Holt vs Trump.

  • Does it honestly matter who 'won'? These two are polarizing to the point that is there really anyone who's undecided?

  • I know already that I'll never vote for Clinton and it doesn't matter if she got off a few zingers.

    Thinks I know she lied about and things that were unfair.

    Trump didn't push her hard enough and was on the defensive too much, I don't deny that. He shouldn't have spent so much time defending the Iraq war stuff either he should have pressed Clinton as the one that voted for it.

    Holt did ask tough questions to Trump about Tax returns, birther stuff, and interjected about how his Hillary stamina comment was sexist. He didn't ask Hillary anything tough or critical.

  • Trump needs to ask something like "why did president Obama send emails to you private server using a pseudonym and then tell the American people he didn't know the server existed?" At the next one.

    Hillary lies and if she gets pressed on tough issues she would get caught.

    The VP debate is going to be a snooze fest compared to yesterday though. Don't think it gets more boring than Pence and Kaine.

  • the dems play dirty. This is the first of three. Actually, defending himself at length,

    given that lester the debate molester went after Trump all too obviously...

    makes two things happen:

    1. Viewers noted Trump never once losing his composure. A simple lie, the dems are good at it,

    takes more than a simple denial to make the lie not effective. Of course he was on the defensive,

    and this first debate, he defended very, very well. Voters will take notice that Trump is not the fire

    breathing dragon higgardly and lesterfester tried to paint him as. IOW's, they put him on the defensive,

    and he defended at length, and explained. That is points for Trump. A loss of points for higgardly and lesterfester.

    2. Trump brought up some major hits on his own, lesterfester tried to interrupt him when he was doing well at it,

    and Trump ended up looking like the underdog fighting two opponents. Voters will take note ot that.

    She came off phoney, as usual, with canned soundbites and fake happy faces. She lost a lot of points

    on completely being unable to defend her record. That's very bad. She also failed to posture like an

    expert on facts and figures - and an incumbent problem with emotional quips goes nowhere near good

    for American voters who are looking for America to change direction. Huge advantage goes to Trump.

  • Lester asked 15 exclusive questions to Trump and 2 to Hillary.

    Lester interrupted Trump 40+ times and Hillary < 2

    He was a horrible moderator regardless

  • Giuliani livid over last night’s debate, says Trump should skip the rest…

    Rudy Giuliani is livid this morning over last night’s debate moderator, Lester Holt, and how he misportrayed ‘stop and frisk’. In fact he says Trump should skip the reset of the debates unless he can get assurances that the moderators won’t act like ‘ignorant fact checks’:

    THE HILL – “If I were Donald Trump, I wouldn’t participate in another debate unless I was promised the journalist would act like a journalist, and not an ignorant fact check,” Giuliani said late Monday night in the post-debate spin room, according to video provided by Bloomberg.
    “My advice would be the moderator would have to promise they’d be a moderator.”

    But although Trump praised Holt immediately after the debate, Giuliani gave a scathing review of the moderator, claiming his “interference” in a discussion about policing in New York was “outrageous.”

    “If journalism has ethics, Lester Holt unethically interfering in the area of law he knows nothing about,” Giuliani said.

    “It is not unconstitutional and Trump’s description of that case was correct.”

    The argument in question came after Holt claimed “stop and frisk,” a controversial program Giuliani approved as mayor of New York in which police search people they stop for questioning, “was ruled unconstitutional in New York” for its impact on minorities.

    That practice has been criticized as disproportionately targeting minorities. A circuit court judge ruled the practice unconstitutional, but a higher court never settled the question.

    *I would not agree Trump should skip any debates ....that would kill his chances to win. The better alternative would be to do debate prep and factoring in the bias and being prepared for it.

    When Matt Laurer asked Clinton tough questions on her emails he was soundly criticized by his liberal colleagues in the MSM for being too tough on her. Holt no doubt wanted to please his MSM pals and not make the "mistake" of Matt Lauer.

  • the left are like a bunch of nazis - it's THEIR way, or the highway.

    whatever they want, is the new "law".

    it's power, and the power to hold onto power.

  • Scott Adams had a good take on it, he definitely shouldn't be skipping the next debates though. Trump went for the restrained approach which will probably win him more voters when it's all said and done.

    AC actually pushed Hillary in the one dem primary debate, and usually is pretty fair despite his personal opinions. I think he should be good in the 2nd one.

    Trump should also not criticize Holt despite the fact he was terrible, let his surrogates point out the bias for him.
