It was everything you'd expect. It was very, very trump. Condensed trump, if you will. Trump all over the screen.

This stood out to me. To boast about it and feel accomplished for the praise for it not being the norm for anything associated to him was quite interesting to see, honestly. When Hilary directly spoke to our allies that she would honor our role and agreement I knew that she can win and become the president. Also, Trump continuing his unfiltered stereotyping on live tv during a presidential debate was both horrifying and candid of the man as he is. There is no question about who won this debate.
Man... Feels like he or she is reading a script or one of those talking point memos.

Hillary stole Trumps soul in front of 100 million people.
Sure to be the scandal of the election.
"I don't know who you were talking to behind this curtain at this one event, once, Senator Clinton, but you were screaming at this guy! I thought, wow, you have a baaaaad temperament!"
That's when he swayed me, truly hillary's behavior against that one guy at that one place that one time proves she's unhinged!

He is, Trump Supporters are fucking living cartoons at this point. Naturally, he is going off right now about how Trump wasn't flustered, and isn't believing the LIEbral media about who was more honest during the debate.
He lets them in without admitting guilt.
I follow this 24/7 and I didn't even know what he was referring to, must be some deep dive on a far right website
Haha, I forgot about that one. There's a lot of great gems in there that will get a lot of airtime the next 14 days until the next nightmare.
I almost feel bad for them. Almost.
Same here, first I've ever heard of it.
lol no shit, I had no clue what he was trying to reference

but steak isn't a goddamn option because steak lost a representative popularity contest to subway a third of a goddamn year ago
I can't believe the US News on this. They are totally trying to make it seem like a draw. Is this some new way to appear unbiased? They tried to show Hillary made a good point and Trimp made a good point. The failed to show the other 89 minutes of Trump being completely destroyed. It's like reality TV we all know who won but they hype the other side to make it seem close to create drama. The Canada news are literally just trying not to laugh. All they could say was well Trump acted like Trump and it wasn't good. Then staring in to the camera with a look of sorry but what can we even say after that.

People called Romanes they go the house?
The '10 year old cyber genius' and 'doesn't have the temperament' are going to be two of the big things.
My only 'concern' is that now, Hillary has to balance the fine line of 'attacking without actually attacking', lest she come off as 'the bad guy' and reinforce any of the bullshit that the right's been able to stick to her so (relatively) well in terms of certain voter pools (as well as the insanely stupid double standard in gender politics and the like).
Trump, if he continues, is definitely gonna hang himself, but there's still the issue of perception.

From what I read, the actual majority of the news believed Clinton won. Some would of course say it's tie, but it's bullshit.

This is all so vague lol. What is he even talking about?
Also, lol at him making Baron the head of the Cyber Command Center.
Hillary seems to have calmed down the bed wetters for now.

I was very confused at the blue curtain thing as well.
no no no, it's the 400 lbs guy in his bedroom who is the cyber, his 10 year old son is just unbelievably great with computers.
Hey, Delta terminal D isn't so bad.
Which is why they keep flying me out of C.
I wonder, is that on purpose?

In retrospect, it's kind of silly the amount of diablosing that GAF indulged him the last couple of days leading up to the event. True, hindsight is always 20/20, but Clinton walked in and fucking DESTROYED Trump at his own game. They weren't even on the same playing field. At the end Clinton walked out with as cool a head as she had when she walked in while Trump was literally in the Spin Room still trying to eke out some kind of victory.
She knew when to press and when to let him run his mouth. She knew when to respond and when to ignore. She knew how to talk over him completely unfazed and uninterrupted as she would complete her sentence, and you could still perfectly hear what she was saying.

Eh? MSNBC has been absolutely merciless tonight, savaging Trump endlessly for hours on end. CNN has similarly been pretty brutal, and their own panel of undecideds gave it to Clinton 18/20. So it really depends on who you're tuning in to and what media you're watching/reading.
And a trump poster on his wall, lol

Eh? I just meant that he's used it multiple times and I always thought I heard "Big League." He truly has the best words.
senpai mentioned me~
Do it - it's easy to get involved.
I was expecting Clinton to perform fine. I was not expecting this absolute garbage fire from Trump. I'm really surprised he didn't even bother trying to look Presidential. I overestimated him.

Didn't watch the entire thing yet, but I saw where she called him out on not paying taxes. Trump saying it was smart and Clinton mentioning that he was stiffing the troops was great. Also, that sigh when she was talking about the vibrancy of the communities if color was terrible. Hillary and Priorities USA are going to have a lot of ads from this.

This was my favorite of his borderline incoherent rants.
He seemed to suggest for really no reason at all that the litmus test for economic prosperity of a country is...how fancy an airport is.
This was beautifully done. Just the right level to make herself heard, but not so loud that she could be accused of the "loud-mouth-bitch" stereotype. And I wonder how many women will see that and go "Yeah, the men in my life talk all over me, too!"
"Let me tell you, Hillary has experience, but it's bad experience. She had so many bad deals. Tons and tons of bad experience, all bad. So many, so many bad deals. Whether it's the very bad iran deal, or the.... the... other bad deals. So many bad deals! Let me tell you, she has so many bad deals, it's almost impossible to name her bad deals!"
He got on stage and just threw shit against the wall.

Why did he call out Christie like that though?
Yep, her ad with Bill O'Reilly sighing at the end about Trump being unfit for office was super effective. This one has Donald sighing at the welfare of an entire community.
He had a few very poorly timed, ill considered quips like that one. Like he'd try some snarky out-of-turn response and the rest of her sentence makes him look like an even bigger fool.
He actually said that she doesn't have the look in response to that question and then QUICKLY changed to STAMINA, did I say look? I meant STAMINA loooool
I couldn't believe he went there. Looool
I rarely watch US news, it just came on after th debate. It was laughable, they literally called it a draw and said America will need to tune into the next debate before we can determine a winner. We didn't watch long and flipped over to The National.
The worst thing, not watching the debate, is that I barely have any idea if this is a joke quote or a very real one. Utterly scary.
I've been trying my best to paraphrase the stuff as I'm hearing it playing on the monitor next to me. I've watched the debate two and half time nows, everything I said is at least a fair attempt at summing up real exchanges in the debate. These things I'm posting, trump really expressed these things.
It's hard to exactly paraphrase him because he double, triple, quadruple-talks himself with all these conditionals and mumbling asides, but yeah, these are the things he said.
Tried to hammer a point over and over again that she has this huge history of bad decisions, and when it came to his crescendo, all he could do was list a single point, that she had actually originally brought up earlier in the debate (she defended the iran deal as an example of diplomacy and complex world politics). He only called the iran deal bad because she didn't accomplish miracles with it (i.e. get iran to deal with north korea).

I'm not an NPC. And neither are we.
Clinton has an ad with Bill O'Reily?
