I think all those great expectations were just media hype for ratings.

However, he had lots of untouched material.

But what did he DO with the material he had?

I can't believe he let Lester and Hillary suck him into "who's more worried about the black community" with nothing to answer but "law and order!"

That would have been a PERFECT place to segue into defending the second amendment and how Hillary does NOT have answers for what she claims to want to accomplish. Who cares if it didn't answer Lester's question? It would have put her on the "I've got a program" merry-go-round of political double-talkers.

I’m not expecting to see a grad school lexicon — nor would such even be desirable — but middle school would be nice.

Hey! Crazy cat ladies vote conservative!

Not quite.

See, that's Catch-23. If you vote conservative, you're not crazy.

“I can see that. Yes. Good call!”

The one thing that got Obama the vote was he was out there meeting people everywhere and anywhere. Trump is doing that, too. Hillery isn’t. Her schedule right now has her at one a day at small stops; primarily fundraisers, which are very small events.

I agree. Trump did fine and Hillary didn’t knock him off which means Trump wins. I also expect Trump to continue to move ahead going forward. The undecided are breaking for Trump big time and the base will turn out. Unless he kills a puppy on TV he should win.

Hilary Clinton is a weak, unlikeable candidate.

I don’t think the vocabulary is as much of a problem as the constant repetition of adjectival phrases that bracket every damn answer he gives.

@4442 - point taken and thanks

I suspect many of us are so well versed in how scandalous she is and perhaps we had overly high expectations that more of it would come out.

He MUST bring up the Clinton foundation and ask why the media has little curiosity about it.

I'd like to see some traction on Clinton's claim of a "Trump Loophole" that personally benefitted Trump.

Trump looked perplexed when he heard that, and asked Clinton "Who said that? How much?"

I thought that plus Holts mention of First Strike policy was his Nuclear Triad gotcha but Trump handled it. I thought he did very well and maintained his composure when needed and got forceful & passionate on things that effect America and its citizens. With Trump I saw passion, Hillary was stiff.

Very true. Good observation.

She’s done. And with her defeat the Clinton Crime Family and their ilk can be finally tossed into the garbage can they richly deserve to be in.
