Here come all the negative voices on Fox News. Turned to Mr. & Mrs. Smith. Can’t stand listening to the Jerusalem who think they know what’s best for the rest of us.

I had intended to watch this thing on OAN, comfortably on the sofa. But I got wrapped up in this thread, and basically only HEARD the debate, without watching.

Trump came across as making real points, and sounded sincere and impassioned. Hillary sounded like a college debater reading from index cards, when she wasn’t parroting memorized platitudes.

Trump was Trump. He was exactly the person who energized us and got us to put him where he is now. I’m not dissatisfied - and there are more debates.

If I was Trump I would have said “I’ll support her if she wins the election fairly.”

George W. Bush wasn’t a real hot speaker at first, but he learned. So will Trump.

...camera stuck on Trump while Hillary is speaking? Bizarre.

The pool camera is rigged as well. I agree with you and listened to her with no video except Trump. WTF?

Sunshine patriots is accurate, but WAY too kind.

She spoke slow when repeating what the earpiece said - it was very unnatural, along with the plastered in goofy smile

o if I know media relations and won’t say Trump is winning, then I don’t WANT him to win?

What are you, a teenage girl?


No I am not a teenage girl...Far from it...Who appears immature is you with your snarky comments about Trump and they don’t help...

Clearly I am older than you because I grew up at a time when I was told “If I cannot say something nice” then don’t...Well I would not say anything negative about my candidate for his first debate..Perhaps you could have used your media relations “expertise” to say something Hillary was doing wrong...

If you are so smart with your media relations (degrees?P? then you would know this is a PUBLIC FORUM read by many...Do you really think it helps anything to have dozens and dozens of short-sided opinionated negative comments.

Just great to have so many negative comments on Pro-Trump Forum...I am sure you will find many agreeing with you on DU.

I saw this debate as a draw, which is good enough because Trump only had to show he is capable of being President. I expect little change in the race.

So at the end Trump gets another Meagain Kelly gotcha question (crafted just to ake him look bad)about woman and The Beast works the crowd to cheers. Sickening. I'll never watch another "debate."

Smart? It’s the headliner. “Trump: If she wins, I would absolutely support her.”

The part that irritated me was when Holt asked Trump about Trump questioning Hillary’s stamina, then Holt tried to interrupt him (again) as Trump answered. Then Trump had to say, “You asked the question, let me answer it.”

Trump’s people need to address the way the debates are conducted. Trump won, but he had to fight both Shrillary and the moderator. Stevie Wonder saw this coming.

Oh, and all you Clinton fans—former fans of one of the sixteen clowns Trump destroyed—posing as Trump supporters so you are’t bounced: you can back go to DU or your nevertrumper site now and join your comrades.

Man, that really ugly Clinton (wo)man is on now, spinning.
My eyes ....

Drudge poll mean nothing, the site is frequently primarily by people who hate the Clintons, as I do.

It was a disaster for Trump.

Now the rigged polls will indicate a big swing back to her. The whole idea was to show Trump catching up to her before the debate, so they can create the “big swing” for her.

Ya’ll better get down on your knees every night and pray for some sort of major medical incident, because that’s the only way this hack stays out of the WH.

As you know, people only remember how you made the feel, not what you said. He body language was smug and her laughing through it all was disingenuous. Trump, I think, will be remembered as genuine and concerned. Hitlery will be remembered as “that smug bitch”.
