ON THE OCCASION OF THE FIRST DEBATE BETWEEN
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
Donald John Trump
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
HOFSTRA UNIVERSITY, HEMPSTEAD, NY
9 PM MONDAY SEPTEMBER 26, 2016
The 90 minute debate will be divided into six time segments of approximately 15 minutes each on major topics to be selected by the moderator and announced at least one week before the debate. The moderator will open each segment with a question, after which each candidate will have two minutes to respond. Candidates will then have an opportunity to respond to each other. The moderator will use the balance of the time in the segment for a deeper discussion of the topic.
I agree with that totally— he hit her on tpp.. the iran deal... nafta.. super predators... the iraq war... isis.. etc.. Did you see a focus group?
*HUGS RETURNED TO AWESOME YOU!*
I never expected Hillary to be KOed.
People who say that sound stupid.
Trump basically held his ground.
I thought Hillary sounded rehearsed, canned, robotic.
No human warmth from her.
Hillary did not succeed in bringing down Trump and neither did Holt even though that was clearly his mission.
For Trump to lose, he would have had to self-destruct. It didn’t happen.
You have less than NO idea how the LIVs and undecideds saw this; you're just guessing.
Even crap would say your are full of crap.
Bullshit
Everything Hillary said was memorized and other than her bobbing head, the rest of her was stiff as a board.
I’m not sure how much stock I put in Luntz, but I hope his analysis bears out in reality.
Tied right now. Trump is winning all the online polls.
Well OK but at least he practices. Maybe he could play Hillary for Trump.
Yep—from his very first question spent too long outlining programs. On trade got stuck on exporting jobs without getting to his economic plans at all until he somehow had about 10 seconds left. Needs practice with the short timing and the putaway response and with not getting too irritated.
Where was the happy warrior in him?
“That being said, Trump missed a LOT of opportunities tonight”
Sooooo...maybe you’d agree he isn’t a mean SOB and makes for a level headed President?
What solutions? Its a bunch of political gobbeldy goop. Trump sounded real and mentioned the real problems. I think people want to know, I do, that the President understands the problem before throwing out sound bite solutions.
Yeah. Where did that come from? Why would Trump agree to let Lester just randomly ask HIM to substantiate his claims?
That first break in almost cost me a television!
DCWhispers is pro-Trump but here is there analysis saying “Tie Goes To The Runner: Trump defeats Hillary in 1st debate”.

Saw Ingraham on Fox awhile ago.
I think the ratings for the second debate are going to be down at least 20%. I didn't even watch this debate (I haven't watched any since 1988), and it's obvious from following this thread that presidential debates in general are just idiotic.
“At 10:42 PST after the debate, Hillary is leaning forward and you can clearly see a cord ringing down her back and what seems to be a power supply on her lower back!”
~~~~~~~~
You could put a “vanity” thread up with your post. You saw it on C-SPAN. I was DVRing on FOX and rolled it back to 10:42.
It definitely looks suspicious...especially that bulge several inches below her waist in the back that certainly could be a power supply.
MSN had Trump up 5, but the respondents seemed to lean Pub and older than I expected...
“For Trump to lose, he would have had to self-destruct. It didn’t happen.”
Exactly. He did well. Who in their right mind you think with the liberal moderator that he’d do well anyway?
