Mate, it was breitbart poll. He lost a poll Co-hosted by them. That's big as far as how last night went.
The important part of that poll is that it was done by Breitbart, as in the site run by the guy who runs Trumps campaign.
Trump really going in on the online polls lol.

Most of these top questions don't seem terrible, once you cut out the email and Benghazi nonsense.
They also said they'll only consider the top 30, not that they'll ask them, so the garbage isn't going to get through.
I assume that he was referring to Barron, who I think is too young for a GAF account. Don Jr. I assume spends most of time on Stormfront.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
The Trump campaign found out stuff like this doesn't get attention unless he engages so he's actually improved on that front. I don't expect anything to come of it.
Ugh. Two highest vote getters so far are literally just "BENGHAZI!!!" and "EMAILS!!!".

I don't think the 'did your mind change' in the post-debate polling question matters all that much. What matters is if you're more likely to vote for your candidate based on the relative performances. This entire election right now is just getting lukewarm voters to the polls.

He literally re-engaged and doubled down on it this morning.
I'm sure victim blaming will do wonders for Trump with white suburban women. Keep fucking that chicken, Rudy.

Last night was the shot in the arm I needed.
I once again have faith in Clinton and this election in general. She rocked it!

TV cable news is still spending too much time on shitty, nonsense stuff.
Just now, there was a segment on CNN about Trump's remarks on the hacking thing. They play his clip with the remark about there being probably 3 parties that could've been responsible for the DNC hacking:
1/ Russia - highly likely to certain
2/ China - probable but unlikely
3/ 400lb man on a bed - utter shit nonsense
So the CNN bobble heads decide to ask Evan McForgot-My-VP-name about 3, as if all three options are equally valid, and of course when he's done plugging his whatever, time's up, segment's over, let's go to a commercial break.
Why not call out bullshit when you see it, and spend time on reasonable talking points?
Why not say, hey, option 3 is stupid and nonsense, we're not going to waste any more time on it, lets talk about how and why Russia and/or China would hack the DNC.

As much as I hate Trump. This does not help the cause. Trump is well noted not drinking any alcohol or taking any drugs.
Plenty of true stuff to attack Trump with. This just distracts and gives Trump to act morally outraged at such a baseless allegation.
You left out option 4, super-cyberhacker Barron.
If Trump's takeaway from last night's debate was that he needs to hit *harder*, then November is already in the bag and I can go back to not worrying about this election

And if he "won" without prep, he need not waste any time on that either.
Trump literally fell for every single trap Hillary set for him, every single one. He couldn't take a single step without hitting a landmine. Her and her team did a fantastic job mapping this debate out, I can't wait to see what they can do now that they know their assumptions work and Trump is pre-heated.

Wow, Trump really doubling down on the fat shaming, huh? I mean, that's already disgusting (Trump's words, not fat people, they are beautiful.)

I hope he does hit harder. He's a very arrogant, narcissistic man, and there's nothing more satisfying than watching a selfish, arrogant, son of a pepe crashing and burning.

I saw that and you could see the Fox hosts cringing and trying to steer him away from it but he wouldn't let it go.

Isn't that CNBC poll fake?
Just thought I'd share a little Trump voter insight from some postdebate discussions. Most are already aware that Hillary's biggest problem is her body language and how she says things. Drilling further into this issue during the discussion I had a lot of it comes down to simple passion. Hillary when she speaks comes across like all issues are the same to her. Everything is just part of the job. When you look at her level of emotion and energy while discussing various issues rarely does she seem moved. To a lot of people its as if she is just going through motions.
Trump for all his flaws and problems, when he does speak his emotions come through much stronger (for better or worse). He comes across more passionate and and appears to care more in what he believes in, etc. (again for better or worse). This seems to be one of the big reasons that Trumps nonsense and flaws get continually overlooked, etc. To sum it up, someone said to me "at least he looks like he actually gives a damn".
Re-watching some of Hillary's speaking, I get what they where trying to say. It's similar to the whole Al Gore and George Bush situation which has been mentioned before. Thankfully Trump lacks the charm George Bush had however the perceived lack of passion on Hillary's end is problematic.
Edit
uring the talk I had I was pushing to find out whats behind the whole "hes more real" perception a lot of his supporters seem to have. Why do they think hes more trustworthy, etc. The above seems to be part of whats behind their thinking/feelings.

He has to do all three, especially after how badly he handled last night. Skipping them means continuing to not win.

When she speaks passionately she's being "shrill". The minefield she has to navigate with literally every word is constantly underestimated.

Bullshit.
Hillary's answer on race relations is absolutely on point and you can tell she actually cares about the issue.
What you are describing is sexism. IF she was passionate she would be called "bossy" or "shrill". If she is dispassionate she is "calculated" or "coniving".
That's something I believe Hillary has talked about in the past and how she feels she has to temper her statements because she's a woman. She can't come out being bombastic and full of emotion because she'd be accused of being a fragile emotional woman. Obama faced a similar situation and feared coming off like an angry black man.

He has little to gain from debates so I think it would be worse.
See also: "Too presidential"... She's screwed however she comes across (at least, with a certain demographic) - can't be too emotional, too loud, too energetic, too presidential, too smug.

"Little to gain"? It's pretty much his only chance to convince undecideds and leaners.
The one time she showed human emotion 8 years ago by crying she got destroyed by the media.
Bernie used to win them by a lot more. She got 25% on Breitbart and 33% on Fox! Not that these polls matter, but you can feel the "trendz" going her way.

Alex Jones did a poll for his followers to choose who won the debate and Hillary is winning 59-41. Trump's ceiling showing up in Twitter polls too. Sad! https://twitter.com/RealAlexJones/status/780599526230863874
