I think trump came out swinging, it was hit after hit after hit. He was solid throughout the entire debate, he was clear and in control. He was right when he said he has better temperament than Hilary, all she could do was sit their with a stupid grin because what he said legit shook her. Trump won by a land slide and she really didnt have any sort of retort to say back. Cant wait to see what he does the next debate

Are you serious? Trump had like 5 talking points and kept repeating them over and over again until he went ballistic by the end. Hilary was way more consistent and looked cool and calm compared to him.

Also recent reports seem to suggest that Clinton actually technically won the debate. Will see the results tomorrow of course.
 
What am I seriously the only one who thinks we have awful candidates?

Don't play like both are equally bad.

that's quite a large amount of bullshit, right there

To see the world through your eyes....

She was actually smiling when he started lying on stage.

I don't think we watched the same debate.

Are you for real? Is this real life? Am I that drunk?


In-control? He was a mess.

this is the worst opinion of all time

I still can't tell if you're joking. I thought I could identify sarcasm over text, but you and Compsiox are making it awfully difficult.

How intellectually dishonest of you.

lol i am sorry I couldnt resist I wanted to know what it felt like to be on the other side and I hate myself for it lol. She kicked his ass in the debate she ran circles around him. It was humorous to watch
 
Trump started the debate launching right into a bunch of nativism and some weird attempt to present the Mexican sales tax as some sort of tariff on American goods, calling it a VAT presumably so that people wouldn't know how what tax he was actually talking about. I really, really don't see any sort of "strong start" of the debate for Donald Trump.

He's graded on a curve. Discipline was his only requirement and he failed but he gave it a few minutes. Tax returns and the Birther movement broke his brain.

.................Except she did answer all his claims and he was asked to clarify he didn't answer. Explain one of his policies on any topic that was covered.\

oh wait you're being sarcastic.

I think temperament and composure go hand in hand. Hillary kept it together the entire debate. Trump fell apart and was the only one seeming like he had to "fight." That's mostly because his positions are way harder to defend.

Therefore I think all the talk of temperament was bullshit. Hillary did fine on this front. Trump came off more as a bumbling fool fighting for scraps on the talking points.

The people posting dumb shit in this thread are just trying to get everyone to quote their post for pages.

No point in falling for it.

You;re coming out of the gate too strong with the joke. You need to lead us on a bit more before going all in.

I don't like the guy... but wouldn't showing that he hasn't paid tax and gotten away with it with some loop hole... the kind of thing you'd want in his campaign of how broken the system is? I mean it only furthers his point...

Its happened before. Remember this lady?

Rewinding-E3-Highlights-from-the-Electronic-Entertainment-Expo-Cammie-Dunaway.gif


She was fired right after E3 for being overly enthusiastic. Some people don't like that. It feels so forced.

Cammie wasn't fired "right after E3." She was at Nintendo for several more years and left to be CEO at another company. The reason she was disliked was because she came across as a very phony, rehearsed and annoying corporate suit, the opposite of enthusiastic and passionate. She also demoed several of the many lame casual games that Nintendo unveiled at that disastrous E3 show and became synonymous with them.

Not when you're running on a platform of even further lowering the tax expectancy of the upper class. It's entirely antithetical to paying debts and empowering the middle class.

It should play disastrously with his rural base. And yet. Unbelievable that people can't see through this shit, absolutely unbelievable.

...you realize that half of what he said was factually incorrect, right?

I honestly cannot understand how you interpret that incoherent, childish performance as "solid". Thankfully, both the polls and the experts appear to disagree with you.

I mean, we're talking about a guy who defended himself against accusations of racism by replying that he opened a club and let black people in.

The real story happening on social media is how Clinton wasn't wearing an American Flag pendent, yet Trump was. Absolutely fascinating. Look at this species.

You should check out his tax "plan" sometime.

"The record shows that I am right! The first time I was interviewed with Howard Stern, I said very lightly, very lightly - I dunno, maybe, who knows?"

WHAT A FIRM STANCE
 

xxracerxx

Don't worry, I'll vouch for them.
I don't agree with his agenda. It's just that I hate both candidates. I'm willing to hear people out though.

It doesn't matter to hear people out though if you are willing to just say fuck it and wish he would win to "see what would happen."

It is entirely selfish and ignores a shit ton of people that would be profiled because of his win.

It is rather disgusting how you just view this as a joke.

Clinton missed a lot of moments to blame Republican obstructionism for all the '20 years of policy failure' Trump kept levying at her. Most of the wrongs he's throwing at them haven't been because Dems haven't been trying to do the right thing, but more because Republicans won't fucking let them.

Really, all she has to do is this: Pause for a second, after a spate of Trump interruptions and petulance and grandstanding, and say this to the camera: "Look at the way this man conducts himself. Imagine he's in a meeting with a foreign power with whom tensions are high; Do you think he will diffuse the situation or make it worse?" You force people to look at him in that context, and for anyone with any rational imagination whatsoever, that's a death blow.
I think she may be trying to not focus much on the republican party as a whole to try and increase her odds. Trump doesn't really represent the republican platform that well.

Like, this election feel more about the candidates than the parties they represent compared to past elections, but that could just be me.
