Donald Trump won the first presidential debate, if social media mentions was the main metric.

Facebook reported that Trump dominated 79 percent of the conversation on its platform. The most discussed moment was Trump's comments on his temperament, and the top issues were on taxes, ISIS, racial issues, the economy and crime and criminal justice.

The entire USA print & TV media, NBC host, Lester Holt & Hillary Clinton all join together, to debate POTUS candidate, Donald J. Trump at the same time, and Trump defeats all of them handily. Just about every single “internet/online” poll available to the American people and voters, give DJT a massive win over the USA, Clinton/Obama, hateful, biased media. I would not want to be Mr. Lester Holt this morning. He stock value and career have just gone out the window. He will now join Ms. Candy Crowley in the “Attic Closet”...out of sight, out of mind. What a blooming idiot!!!

I suspect most of the commenters watched to see what Donald Trump would say and watched to see if Mrs Bill would collapse. To the MSM the fact that Mrs Bill did not have a “medical episode” makes her, I’m sure, the Winner. To the audience the fact that she was still standing was good for her but doesn’t mean they would vote for her. They didn’t really care what she had to say. Whether she survived the fray, because it was uppermost for so many people means that she actually already had lost the debate on a practical level.

It is a different dynamic and not what the liberal establishment can yet accept even though they have been on the wrong of that dynamic since this all began. Ganging up on Trump is a fool’s game. It just changes the scorekeeping. He only has to not wilt, not get flustered. It was his win going in. She could not win it. He had already won it. She, did she understand the dynamic in play, had to hope for Donald’s tongue to fall out of his mouth or for him to suddenly begin to talk about “them niggers.” For her to succeed it was necessary for him to fail seriously.

She got scorched with the on line polling. I was a little surprised at how badly she lost on line. Her team must be freakin out.

Didn’t watch it because it’s irrelevant anyway. You vote for who you vote for anyway and who ever is undecided at this point is totally clueless because the comparisons are complete opposites.

Trumps staff will say he won, Clinton’s staff will say she won, MSM will state Clinton won, conservative sites will say Trump won, online polls you pick the ones you want to see so whoever you want wins and everyone of the above will play it over and over for the next several days.

...”Didn’t watch it because it’s irrelevant anyway. You vote for who you vote for anyway and who ever is undecided at this point is totally clueless.”...

Those who claim to be undecided at this point just do not want to say who they are voting for.

Enthusiasm gap. Trump's army still strong.

If that’s true then “those people” are pathetic at best...

Either she has some good operatives (and drugs) to keep her standing, or perhaps it really just was a cold?

A cold that lasted 4 years and caused her to fall down a lot.

If I didn’t see her walk out onto the dais I would wonder if she was on a rod in a socket in the floor.
