Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump ushered the 2016 presidential campaign into a new phase tonight, and they did it with plenty of barbs.
The two candidates faced off in their first general election debate at Hofstra University in Long Island, New York, in front of what was expected to be a historic number of television viewers.
4. Trump Asks ‘Why Not’ Blame All the World’s Problems on Clinton Less than 30 minutes into the debate, Trump went after Clinton, attacking her on trade, ISIS, taxes, the economy and more. Clinton quipped: "I have a feeling by the end of this evening I'm going to be blamed for everything that's ever happened.” Trump didn’t miss a beat, saying to his opponent: “Why not?”
Clinton responded: "Why not? Yeah. Why not? Just join the debate by saying more crazy things. Now, let me say this—“
Trump interjected: "There's nothing crazy about not letting our companies bring their money back into the country,” before the moderator reminded Trump, "This is secretary Clinton's two minutes, please."

The democrat/communist media/entertainment propaganda complex is burning the midnight oil right now, tweaking and “nuancing” the collective talking points they will all “spontaneously” spew tomorrow morning. It will all be pro-Hillary, and they will all use the same phrases and mantras.
They will push their narratives no matter what. It’s what they do.
Trump looked perplexed when he heard that, and asked Clinton "Who said that? How much?"

What did Hillary call the hundreds of women who accused her philandering husband of sexual abuse and harassment?
Hmmm. OK ... maybe you are right. I thought she actually meant that women should get the same pay for not doing as good a work as a man. I was thinking in the context of physical labor and Hillary being a socialist and all that. But you may be right. God I do hope it was a misspeak and we haven't devolved that far down. :-)
Handy repartee, you’ve got me shaking in my —how did you put it..?
CRINOLINE..?
Lulz..!
Antediluvian, I tell ya.
If people are still truly “undecided” after everything that has come out about Hillary, then they are probably beyond hope. And if they don’t know about Hillary then they haven’t been paying attention and they’re not going to pay attention to this debate either.
That's what she said. She said Trump's position was that a woman should not get equal pay, unless she did equal work.
If called on it, she'll claim that isn't what she meant.
Whenever she wants to demonize him for being sexist - I always go back to her laughing about representing the child rapist & winning even though she knew he was guilty as sin
I noticed that too, but this is his first debate and he's not a career politician. With that said, he held his own in ...hostile territory. Lester Holt got owned a few times....which made me chuckle.
The LA Times sent me a link to their after debate analysis.
Clinton won absolutely everything according to them.
I only browsed it quickly, but it was a very lopsided assessment.
I laughed and left the site.
It’s time for a change, and there’s nothing any of them can do about it. Hillary could be masterful at the debates and really mop the floor with Trump, and I don’t believe it would make any difference.
Strangely enough, people don’t want a third Obama term.
I almost wish he was running so we could watch him just get pulverized.
Who has said women don’t deserve equal pay unless they do as good a job as men.”
This comment should not have gone unchallenged. If a woman can not do as good a job as man why should they get equal pay?
This should also be challenged, because it is against federal law to pay a woman less for the same job. It has been against the law since 1963.
Trump could ask Hillary, what did she and her husband do about women’s allegedly unequal pay? This law was in place when she was in the White House before.
Ditto, regarding what has her good buddy Obama done about this subject, if there is still a crisis of women allegedly not being paid equally???? The law is on their side, so why would good Democrat presidents allow this situation to fester? And what exactly would Hillary do differently than these other good Democrat presidents, besides bitch about this alleged inequality???
I didn’t see where she ever really drew blood but he did on several occasions and all got to see her grin replaced by a sick look - like getting kicked in the gut.
