We know the talking head media will all go against Trump.
The truth, though, is that Holt was a disgrace at particularly the Iraq War point.
Trump took her down on the economy, jobs, etc.
The Truth: Trump cleaned house
No questions on the Clinton foundation, Ukraine, emails,
“Trump Against BOTH Lester Holt and Hillary Clinton”
It’s Trump against the moderators, Hillary, Big Media, the pundits, and the GOPe.
When Hillary asked him what he was hiding on his tax returns, he should have answered “I’ll tell you what I’m NOT hiding and that is 33,000 emails that were subpoenaed.”
Hillary the robot
I didn’t watch the debate but only followed here on FR. It reminded me so much of the primary debates where many were saying trump was stomping and others were saying he was crumbling. Guess what, Trump won the nomination handily. The proof is in the voting. All else is garbage.
I didn’t catch the beginning, did Lester Holt question Hillary about Benghazi at all?
It is horrific to have to debate against a person that lies and a moderator that tees up the questions for that same person.
A draw. No major knockout on either side. Trump stood up for himself when necessary.
If I were to advise Trump, it would consist of the following:
1) Complete your sentences. You are giving the audience too much credit for figuring out what you mean when you shoot off two or three words.
2) Stop repeating the same point 5 or 6 times. You are wasting time.
3) Speak less to broad concepts and more to the common man.
4) Affability matters. Reagan won on affability. Smile a little more, but not with that forced weird smile Hillary plastered on most of the debatte.
On the whole I give Hillary high marks, an A-, and Trump a B or so. Stylistically Hillary did very well, content Trump nailed it a few times.
He needs to take a reality check and prepare more. Obama had a HORRIBLE first debate and came back strong. Trump wasn’t horrible, but he needs to come back strong. I know he can do it.
When did Lester go black? I always thought he was a white guy.
Why did Trump allow Clinton to wear the ear device? Why does she need it? It’s clearly cheating.
Yeah but Trump had the sniffles. He can’t power thru like our beloved Hillary! < /concern trolls >
Even the introduction was biased. Nice going Lester.
What I would have said . Hope Trump will say it next or this debate?
1. Hillary promised executive amnesty for 40 million illegals in her 1st 100 days in office as President.
2.China is destroying the USA , they make everything . It's time to bring back America's production capability..
3. the debt is skyrocketing 20 trillion federal government debt(look at the debt clock), more than 100 trillion in unfunded liabilities.
4. Politicians are corrupt and Hillary is corrupt. Trump is not owned by soros and China like Hillary is.
5. A house costs 1 million dollars in California and new york . A medical operation costs $100,000. The debt is 20 tilrion $. Politicians and this government, the federal reserve , government regulations have destroyed America . this is why these prices are skyrocketing.Obama , government, government regulations, government control , the fed holding interest rates to near zero to help obama causes the increase in prices like this. country
BAM!!!!
Most of us are on the Trump Train because he is not the traditional kind of politician. The more dissatisfied one is with tonight’s performance, the happier they would be with another Mitt Romney.
She talks about going after ISIS and he drones on about NATO in response! What the hell?! He didn't even bring up how her "taking responsibility" for her illegal server is basically saying "my bad", when it is flat out criminal!
When she's talking about how cyber hacking was such a big deal, he mentioned his ten year old son's computer skills instead of slamming her on her personal, illegal server being hacked and detroying evidence to cover it up!
He is our only option now, but my God I can't believe this performance.
Hillary promised executive amnesty to 40 million illegals
in first 100 days. This proves Hillary is 1 million times worse than Obama.
And Hillary plans to dissolve the U.S. border first 100 days:
that means 10’s of millions of more voters for Hillary/socialism. Hillary is worse than ObAMA AND Chavez combined. If Hillary wins America is done and will become Venezuela . They have no food nor medicine in Venezuela now because of socialism. it doesn’t work. first Hillary will implement single payer healthcare. Google it. it’s true . and all that don’t do everything to stop Hilliary it’s what they are doing is destroying America.
Trump outlined his immigration policy in a speech. Ann coulter said that was the greatest speech she ever heard and I agree. why don’t you all read it or see it? All Americans have to unite to defeat Hillary the communist = Chavez
Help spread all this message above to all Americans . Hillary is 1 million times worse than Obama .
I remember when Donald Trump came out against the war in Iraq. It kinda pissed me off at the time, but in retrospect, what exactly did we gain by going in?
Again Trump was right.
If we are going to go into an oil rich nation, we might as well take the oil. Now ISIS has the oil and Iraq is poised to be overrun first by ISIS and then by Iran.
When you look at what was actually said in the debate, I think you are right, Trump won hands down. But Hillary had all the talking points down. I suspect that she had the questions in advance.
People say that Trump should prepare more for the next debate. From a college debate standpoint, that might be a good idea. But the refreshing thing about Trump is that he is not a polished debater or a wonky politician.
Looking for the “Are you better off than you were four years ago?” moment — the one thing people will remember.
