iirc he's his severance has been paid off entirely by the Trump campaign, so he's technically a free man. Technically.

Basically, he said that Muslim-Americans are all either terrorists or complacent with terrorism and topped it off with saying that Captain Khan would still be alive today if he were president in 2004. It was probably the worst possible answer he could have given (her question was on how each candidate planned to make her feel more secure in America with rising Islamophobic sentiment) without straight up calling her a terrorist.
Honestly, I think it's a shame that nobody calls out Trump on his fear-mongering rhetoric about refugees committing acts of terror once in America. There have been zero documented cases of this in America in 20 years. And the rhetoric is harmful enough that his own son is posting stupid ass memes about Skittles to spread it.
In short, sadly yes.

The poll should have Ken, I'm disappointed.
Tough assignment to deal with technology while being new to being on camera. They should be Chyroning the graphics for him to help him out.
he's fact checking trump...he's probably going to get death threats from the basket.

I hope Corey trips leaving the stage and breaks his neck. He's obviously as callous about sexual assault as Trump is. Apparently he talks about it all the time. It's just something men do, right? Get fucked, you human slime.
I can't stand any of Trump's surrogates. They just rub me the wrong way.

Yup. Clinton was practically the winner of the debate again. Sure she's not great, but compared to Trump who came off as a buffoon again, she was fantastic.

And yet, he'd be like the least enthusiastic Trump supporter if he were on Fox. My god, they aren't even pretending to be fair by having a token liberal, it's a full blown Trump informercial
Yeah, what a fucking piece of shit.
On your crotch, without permission?

Trump's deflecting to ISIS when talking about the tapes is another All Lives Matter tactic mentally.
"Hey, rape culture isn't a big deal because we got ISIS around. Why are you worried about sexual assault when we got jihadists?"
You can be both against rape and ISIS. Terrible response that will be the biggest take away from this debate. His answer is going to get a lot of play.

Oh no doubt it's nerve racking, I sure as hell couldn't do it, I'm just noticing his hand shaking it's noticeable.
Haha! I was thinking the same thing.
Oh, don't worry. I have that Trump daughter defense stance.

The weirdest part being he specifically brought up that part about Khan just to claim yet again that he was against the Iraq War, to which even the moderators told him he was full of shit on.
He seems to be stuck on that Iraq War point for some reason, he's the only one who brought it up and he brought it up to lie about his original position yet again.
The fact that people aren't talking more about them is a tacit indication they were excellent
They were the real winners of tonight.
LMAO I noticed that, too. IIRC, this is his first prime-time spot on CNN. He's usually a lot more relaxed.
lmao. They learn from the best, believe me.

He was against it from the beginning! Call Sean Hannity!

Do you think Fox will ever have enough self-awareness to realize they are the reason they're stuck defending this unelectable, orange turd?
And yet despite the bluster Clinton verbalized a much stronger grasp of the specifics and key locations in the next steps against ISIS, including noting that the front line of the coalition are Muslim nations and tying Trump's alienating rhetoric to jihadist recruitment. I thought it was one of her stronger topics.
shocked such a measured man was tossed from the trump campaign for putting his hands on someone
I'm super happy that Van called Jeffery Lord out for trying to continue the bullshit of minimizing sexual assault "because lol fuck ISIS". For gods sake yes, everyone agrees that ISIS is bad and does bad things. But that doesn't mean we should shrug off and ignore claims or evidence of sexual assault by a presidential candidate.
I am just so mind boggled by the GOP and their line of thinking that ISIS is basically the only problem we have.

I assume he will be unemployed in 31 days. I hope he has an epic meltdown when CNN calls the election for Clinton.

The real winner tonight was Steven Spielberg's fantastic 2012 film Lincoln.
Of CNN? They've released several. Takeaways: Clinton won by a sizable margin, but Trump performed well above expectations (while Hillary more or less met expectations)
There was a segment where Kelly was talking about it with that guy who looks like a villain from a movie (name begins with K) and they were both admitting that Trump was fucking toast.
The villain guy basically said that Hillary has to be found guilty of a crime or something equally bad for Trump to reverse this.
It was pretty shocking to hear from them.
Kelly clearly cannot fucking stand Trump though.

Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
His hand was shaking so hard he had to put them in his pockets. Poor guy.
The women gap is very significant when compared to men. Clearly, Trump's tape and comments have done significant damage.

I really want to keep a list of all these people writing off bragging about sexual assault as "locker room talk" that all guys do.

The spread for women pro Clinton and women pro Trump is bigger than the converse for men for each.
Considering women also make up a larger part of the voting electorate, that is huge.
On top of that, Trump being seen as going on the attack, after all that has gone down, can only make things worse.
I'm seeing more Clinton won by a bit than Trump currently.
