My take on the second half of the debate, all I have seen so far (and most of it just listening in the car):

Hillary was talking for looooooong stretches, Donald was interrupted by Wallace far more. This was apparent in the car especially.

Donald didn’t finish his statements clearly enough. “She’s broken a huge law” and then he didn’t get around to which law (I too was wondering which one of many he meant) for too long.

The “final statement” was very telling. She spoke right into the camera to the American people. I know everything she said was lies, but butter couldn’t melt in her sugary mouth. He should have looked into the camera and addressed us too. He was a tv star. I liked what he said, but I felt put off by his not looking at us or even speaking positively about his own campaign other than repeating the slogan.

I don’t think he won a single new vote tonight, unless I missed anything. I don’t think he counteracted her well-spoken, perfect sentence LIES. (Her sentences were so perfectly said with such complicated words that I still think she is wired) He got some good shots in, though.

Here’s a funny for you: we were listening in the car, and Grandma was with us. She has Alzheimer’s. She heard three voices talking at one point and asked, who is that little annoying man? I said, “That is the moderator. Chris Wallace, the son of Mike Wallace.”

Mom said, “No, not him. THIS annoying man.” I just started laughing.

“Mom, that’s Hillary Clinton!”
