Me in the debate thread:

This was the map this afternoon from Princeton Election. I wonder how it will look in a few days once we get post-debate polls.

 

[B-Dubs]

They will lose so hard if he backs out.

I will put money on him not showing for the 3rd.

 

[Y2Kev]

I just can't believe Hillary took him down in the same way Carly fuckorina did.

statement of the trump campaign on their debate victory tonight

delusional peeps lol

Welp, okay then. You do you, R govs.

 

[Bronx-Man]

If Trump drops out of any debates, this election is over.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Shit I can't remember the second word Trump made up tonight. He brought up "bigly" but there was another.

 

[GutsOfThor]

I will put money on him not showing for the 3rd.

It's Chris Wallace though.....

 

[BlastProcessing]

Is the article listed under the Black Crime section?

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

There is nothing on record to suggest that Trump was against the Iraq War. He criticized HW Bush for not killing Saddam in the Gulf War which suggests him as being for it.

 

[RustyNails]

To be fair to him he was against the Iraq war even with his minor aside on Stern

It was not a minor aside.

He said he is for the Iraq war, and that we should have done a better job in the first one (Gulf War).

 

[mo60]

Not sure if this was noticed by anyone else, but I saw Trump drink water 2 or 3 times while Hillary never drank once. No stamina, ha.

Spoiler

Or she is a lizard person.

He also sniffled a lot in like the first twenty minutes of the debate.

 

[Tubie]

When the audience just starts laughing at him on the temperament part.

That was incredible.

 

[metalslimer]

Can we get back to how Donald Trump obviously didn't know what the first use was?

Also there needs to be a rule that you get thrown out if you make a noise in the audience

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Can we get back to how Donald Trump obviously didn't know what the first use was?

lmao That was such a landmine laid by Holt by not defining it.

 

[Kwixotik]

Quoth my father

"Why won't you release the 33,000 emails, BITCH?"

😑

 

[Emarv]

When the audience just starts laughing at him on the temperament part.

That was incredible.

that killed me. it was all of America going "Come on, bro. We get you're a troll, but even that is too far."

I believe firmly that Hillary will win Nevada.

Trevor Noah pointing out how every time Trump mentioned any location in America, he could only relate to it by the property he owns there:

LOLOLOL

 

[kess]

Clinton seemed thrown off and a little stilted at the beginning but really started to make all the important things she needed to do around a third of the way through. Her comebacks were pretty spot on. Did she ever get the last word? God, Trump choked on them. He made her look Presidential.

He mentioned Ferguson once.

 

[Emarv]

lmao That was such a landmine laid by Holt by not defining it.

I thought the same thing, then got sad when Holt didn't pounce. I bet Holt was like "Hill, i set you up for an alley oop and you did nothing, gurl"

 

[Oblivion]

I'm quite satisfied with how the debate went. The mainstream outlets seem to agree Hillary won handily.

 

[sazzy]

CNN is also doing clips with live reaction graphs. its cool.

 

[Dan]

Heh.

lmao That was such a landmine laid by Holt by not defining it.

Yeah, Trump doesn't know shit unless you spell it out.

 

[Wilsongt]

Well, we know a certain funny someone who certainly believes Trump won this debate.

 

[CygnusXS]

Defective microphone? So he actually tried to interrupt more but couldn't? What is he talking about?

Pretty sure if the mic was broken we would have known it.

The microphone made him say those things

 

[Revolver]

He was thirstier than Little Marco and sniffing like Robert Downey Jr. in '87.

 

[Abinash117]

Can't believe some doubted our Queen.


If 100 million people actually saw this then it is really, really going to damage Trump in many ways. Since the beginning I don't believe Trump looked good in anyway, but the first few minutes it would look favorable towards some people. Either way, what matters more is how he reacted in all the questions he was given, and how he handled himself when he was baited by Hillary. It makes him look very foolish to anyone that was paying attention and I bet there were many that did.

Very few things he did in the debate made it more likely for many to even vote for him and that was nearly Trump's fault and part because of Hillary basically outplayed, anyone that was paying attention saw that. Although, I do not think Hillary necessarily destroyed Trump completely as she had many opportunities to do that, but it seemed she let him destroy himself by getting baited. For some, I don't think they'll still know much about her policies, but she handled herself extremely well and that is what is going count. Regardless, she benefited here no matter what and Trump did no favors for himself and some might say he won, but not with any confidence.

I think polls will jump towards Hillary much more and Donald is going to drop a few points mostly because of some being demoralized , but some of his support won't be coming back regardless I reckon. I think she should have been more liberal and talked about some of her policies and little more, but they didn't get to all the points.

Maybe the sniffing

 

[Felix Lighter]

If Trump drops out of any debates, this election is over.

It's the dream. He does so bad in the first debate that he personally refuses to do the rest, leaving no chance to improve his position.

 

[Oblivion]

Well, we know a certain funny someone who certainly believes Trump won this debate.

Dennis Miller?

 

[Grief.exe]

Kellyanne looked straight shook on CNN.

 

[B-Dubs]

It's Chris Wallace though.....

She didn't need Holt to dismantle him though, she got under his skin in her first answer. If goes brings up Bill in the second debate and gets smacked around on that, he'll have no bullets left in his gun. He's a petty as fuck dude, he won't show if he gets wrecked next time.

He said "funny."

 

[metalslimer]

The second debate is a town hall debate right so I don't know when exactly he's going to bring up Bill's affair

 

[Wilsongt]

Dennis Miller?

Haha, good.

 

[PantherLotus]

guarantee the sniffling / coke references make it to the SNL sendup.

 

[Syncytia]

Corey is losing it on CNN right now.

 

[Teggy]

This foreign policy correspondent from NBC is just speechless over the things Trump said.

 

[Ryuuroden]

Maybe the sniffing

It was the mic imp.

He literally can't keep his shit together.

Feel like this one clip just defines the entire debate so well. Watch as Hill just stares deadpan at the camera as implodes on stage. Holy shit.

The moment when his temperament gets brought up nearly broke my brain.

It's like his sole goal in this debate was to show he doens't have the right temperament, then he says "I have a much better temperament", the audience laughs in disbelief, Hillary can't keep a straight face.... My god, this debate...

 

[Qwerty710710]

As a Trump supporter I even thought Clinton mopped the floor with Trump. He came totally unprepared better luck next time.

 

[DrForester]

Any place I can watch the full debate?

 

[Syncytia]

He literally can't keep his shit together.

"Donald Trump didn't bring up the issue of trust and--"

Corey: "HILARY CANT BE TRUSTED"

Everyone else: "??? We know that's an issue, why didn't Donald say anything?"
