It's a question I always had. It must be more than just "I'm racist, I'm a misogynist, I'm an idiot". Even though that is a powerful triple threat.

She has never looked better, imo.

Someone needs to stick this into the cat-Shaq wiggle gif
 
How can someone still be undecided at this point in the race?

It still astounds me that there are voters that still feel this way?!? It's like choosing between getting slapped or getting shot in the leg: "GEE I STILL CAN'T DECIDE?". It's one area where I actually have some respect for Trump supporters as they have gone all in and know who they're supporting (to an extent) but the undecided voters are really baffling to me especially after this debate. It's clear that Hillary is the competent and experienced candidate so how can you still be undecided? And this is absolutely the worst time/elections for people to still be on the fence. Trump and Clinton have been campaigning and in the limelight for over a year now so it's really worrying that some people are only tuning in now!

The amount of shit revolving around this very view point on social media has made me want to smash my head into a wall. Profusely.

Only thing worse than this is "Trump is the lesser evil" or "Trump might be Hitler but we defeated Hitler once so we can do it again".

how much you wanna bet "PARKINSONS" is going to be plastered all over that

Well if Obama can have his dance.

I'm going out on a limb and say that Hillarys little body roll was better. Chaste and fitting for the evangelics and showing the rest that there is more to show off.
 
Well, he was on his best behavior tonight, clearly. Of course, his best behavior still has him looking like an unhinged sleazebag, but there was a noticeable difference in this Trump vs. Republican debate Trump. I expected him to pull out a 'Crooked Hillary' line or two.

Trump is basically all about rinse and repeating the same B.S. He has no actual skills as a politician.
 
Nope, both sides are not equally bad. Try again.

Yup. Anyone who thinks this anymore needs to literally look at a list even just from this debate of all the terrible views Trump again proudly went all-in on throughout the debate. Even going back into them in further detail unprompted, even as interruptions and brags. Not to mention how easily he loses his cool despite the people he'd actually have to interact with in office.

And then him haphazardly throwing multiple countries under the bus to which Hillary did a fantastic and necessary ether moment to.

The great thing is thinking about how will he respond in the next debate? He obviously can't take the yelling, interrupting tactic again.. yet his "strength" is his "strength", if that makes any sense.

It worked for the dumpster fire that was the republican debates but now he has to appeal to voters and not preach to the choir.

For sure, by the end of the night he was all just word vomit. The racial issues topic really shook him, which is damning because anyone could've told you that would be a big topic in light of the last few weeks.

South Park was funny early on but that douche and turd sandwich schtick is really lame, intellectually lazy crap.

I cannot believe people are saying both sides are equivalent or that Hillary isn't much better.

Someone in Trumps campaign must have grilled him hard to shut the hell up about anything like that. He made a reference at the end how he could have said some horrible things about her and her family. So he clearly wants to, but he has been controlled enough not to, cause they know how toxic it is.

I assume recently even more so due to the whole Gennifer Flowers thing.

He told someone on MSNBC that he wanted to bring it up but didn't because Chelsea was there and he apparently respect Chelsea a great deal. I'm sure it's a tremendous amount of respect.

Trump channeled his angry drunk uncle persona for tonight's debate. I'm known for my great temperament was hilarious. If you removed the video and just read the transcripts, you would get the impression that Hillary debated an 11 year old.

Why does everyone attack someone that doesn't like either candidates on this site? Not everyone falls into the two party system belief.

why all these polls I'm looking at show that Trump won but CNN is the only one showing Hillary won? Everyone already calls CNN the Clinton News Network. IMO it was more of a draw with maybe a slight edge to Clinton because Trump ramble on a lot about dumb shit, but Trump killed her the first half hour.

Are the polls you're looking at just anonymous internet polls? Link?

Don't worry, I'll vouch for them.
Are you saying dresses and skirts are unprofessional/unpresidential?

No, I am saying the pantsuits are fine and don't need to be changed.

Not liking either is fine, but when you say they are equally as terrible....that is just dumb.

man, /the_donald is in full on hardcore panic delete mode because even some of the trolls that live in that den didn't think he did that well tonight
 
I am pretty sure the temperament thing is basically him saying 'she is a woman and thus can't handle her emotions.' Especially considering how much criticism she gets for being so 'calculating' -and 'measured.'
Yes, definitely, but that blew up in his face so bad considering that he was nearly shaking with rage and could hardly contain himself half the time.

Poor NimbleRichMan, he paid $10k for this and look what people do for free.


some are just way to quick.

That episode had potential but they just stopped and did it lazily and bad.
Then again if you never read the source and just go by headlines and always take whatever agenda different outlets have I can understand why idiots would believe both to be the same.

EDIT: instead of idiots maybe I should use lazy? Then again I do believe being lazy is the same as being an idiot. If you take everything from a headline and nothing else you are not only doing yourself a disservice but everyone else as well, when it comes to matters that matter that is. For all I care believe that Granitas little bakery has the best apple pie without trying Mamas little bakery.

Debate went as expected. However, I didn't really like the moderator, Lester Holt. I thought the moderator was supposed to remain neutral? He attacked and quoted trump quite a bit.

Shouldn't he just been asking neutral questions that either party could respond to?

It stood out quite a bit and I thought it was weird. Not that I care much anyways as it showed Trumps colors even more.

Why doesn't Trump wear shorts and a t-shirt?

My fiancee is a MASSIVE Hillary supporter and the first thing she noticed tonight was her awful pantsuit lol. Even my neighbors gf chimed in on it, but it's not a voting reason obviously. My fiancee is voting for Hillary because she is an ELL teacher and Democrat. No one wants to see Trump in a Hawaii shirt and cargo shorts.
