Holy s*** did Hilary win that debate IMHO! :surprise:

It was like at times Trump was mumbling incoherently. He didn't go into the specifics of anything....WTF!???

He looked downright frustrated and angry alot of times.
 
Tucker Carlson just said Trump won because he didn't meltdown, and since Trump is wining all the polls, all he has to do is do what he just did and he'll win.

But the reality is, all of our presidential elections and American politics in general have been vicious and grotesque. I was once a part of that problem, forcing myself to be blind to being united as Americans, and instead, focusing on our differences.

I've grown out of that and now see all of us wanting to just live a bountiful life of joy. We can achieve that, no matter if the president is Hillary or Trump. We just have to focus on helping each other find that joy. Can we do that?

I think we can. Do it in your job, with your co-workers, with your customers, with your superiors. Do it with your family. Do it with your neighbors. Help them find that life of joy. You can do that no matter who is sitting in the Oval Office.
 
Trend I'm seeing is that Trump is leading simply because he didn't go into complete meltdown and others are saying Hilary won it because he had little composure. I'm told polls favor Trump right now. All I can say is this. Republicans had similar sentiments after the first debates for the past two elections. Even more so when it was Obama/Biden vs Romney/Santorum. On the other hand, both Bush and Obama have beaten guys far more qualified for the job on paper. Personally, I think the key is all the crazy things Trump has said. Romney/Santorum and McCain/Palin were home to crazy as well. The mixture of dull and crazy completely trampled all the other Republican candidates. I believe that Trump's biggest strength, his mouth, will also be his biggest downfall.
 
This debate was a complete mess for Trump, problem is I think most really expected it to be for him. If you watched with the sound off you'd think he was either holding in a lot of gas or at least doing his best not to s*** himself. She looked far more composed and ready for prime time, he looked like a clown. Now going by what was said, he was flat out awful! he lied like crazy, he wouldn't let anyone else talk and he talked crap about her stamina and by about the half way point of the debate he was out of gas. I'm not a fan of hers at all but she totally kicked his ass tonight and actually looked Presidential, he looked like he was trying out for a reality show "American President" but he would have been one of the guys on the first night where they showed all of the bad auditions.
 
If the last year has proven anything, it's that nothing Trump says actually trips him up. Pointing out his foibles just makes him more popular. That's what is so odd to me about his candidacy.
This exactly, I think he took it easy on her knowing everything he may know about her he didn't disclose. Being anything but presidential has only helped him get hear.
 
Talked to my mom today. She's a lifelong republican and dislikes Hillary a lot and is (was) almost assuredly voting for Trump. She said to me, 'What the hell was he doing? I agree with we need to make America better, but he said nothing. He's so stupid. He didn't haven anything to say. He was also mean and nasty. She was composed and he was out of control. I don't even know what the hell he was talking about. He was so stupid. I'm not sure who I can vote for now.'

Majority of snap polls show Trump won debate by a landslide despite CNN's overwhelming victory for Hillary

CNN awarded Hillary Clinton an overwhelming victory in the first presidential debate - but most snap polls show Trump emerged victorious.

Trump and Clinton tangled over the economy, her use of a private mail server and his unwillingness to release his income tax returns on Monday night.

They engaged in a vigorous back-and-forth on the debate stage at Hofstra University in Hempstead, New York, as polls showed them locked in a tight race.

However, after the debate's end, polls conducted by a number of media websites showed their readers felt the real estate mogul came out on top.

Trump acknowledged the result, tweeting: 'Wow, did great in the debate polls (except for @CNN - which I don't watch). Thank you!'

CNN's snap poll gave Clinton the win with 62 per cent to Trump's 27.

But the Drudge Report's poll showed Trump fared better with 81.5 per cent of the vote to Clinton's 18.5 while others, including Time, CBS New York and the Washington Times, also saw Trump win the vote.

Clinton edged out Trump in the Star Tribune's poll and one conducted by NBC News.

Oh and I still am stunned Hillary came this close to just straight up calling Trump a racist. I'm impressed she went there. There was no way Trump could win an argument about race against a Democrat, despite Trump doing his best to deflect with the "super-predators" quote.
The shocking part is he really did nothing to deny it.

The only demographic he will win is white males. I didn't see him do anything last night to gain votes from other demographics. Stop and frisk will cost him with minorities. The way he kept interupting her when she was trying to talk and talking over her will cost him with women. Not paying taxes may cost him with white males.
 

You laugh, but the snap poll at hillary-clinton-raped-an-aborted-baby-at-benghazi.email.com showed that Trump won the debate 137% to -45%, with an additional 39% saying that both were bad and screw Lester Holt for being a RINO and for pretending to be black(*).

(*) - Their words, not mine.

Daily Mail.....you should trust them as a source for news about as much as Infowars.
