I'll say. He is more than holding his own against this tag team.
Next question is more or less, I think, what are you going to do about Syria? To Hillary first. She says the Russians are trying to desctoy Aleppo to get the rebels allied against Assad. She advocates a no fly and safe zone. Need leverage with Russians (doesn't say what that might be) - emphasizes that Syria is a proxy war with Russia, and has play in Russia's preference for election outcome. She would investigate war crimes.
Trump's turn. Obama's line in the sand (not Hillary's, she correctly corrected Trump on that claim) was a disaster. Trump would strengthen our nuclear ... and Hillary doesn;t even know who the rebels are. Every time we support the rebels, they turn out worse than the regime overturned. Trump says Russia and Iran worked together (and he side remark talks about the awful Iran deal). Trump in closing, Assad is killing ISIS ... Radditz puts him back on the question, what would you do about the humanitarian crisis? Trump says Syria is no longer Syria, it is Russia nd Iran. Trump differs with Pence as to what to do in Syria. [I wish Trump would desscribe humanitarian efforts]. Trump has a problem with annoucning kinetic action in advance. Radditz argues with Trump on this point.
Radditz asks if Hillary would use miliary force beyond no-fly zone (how the devil is she going to enforce no-fly against the Russians?) Hillary comes off as feckless as Kerry.
Question from a black man in the audience - Do you believe you can be a devoted president to all of the people in the US. To Trump. Yes. She calls a large portion of the pople deplorable and irredeemable. Trump will bring back jobs for everybody, good jobs. Inner cities suffer awful. What do you have to lose by voting for me? She's had 25 years. All talk, no action. Look at her promises for jobs in upstate New York.
Hillary says 67% of NY people voted to reelect her to the Senate, and she is proud of that. Right out of schoool she went to work with the Children's Defense (criminal justice). She says she has a deep devotion that every American feels he or she has a place in this country, and maybe they would not have a place in Donald Trump's America. She touts a child from Ethiopia who is worried about being deported if Trump is elected. She cites the Trump effect, bullying is up, kids concerned ... Cooper calls time on her.
Cooper follows up on the deplorables remark. How can you unite a country if you write off tens of millions of Americans? She says it Trump, inciting violence at rallies, what he has said about POWs, African Americans, Muslims, never apologized for any of it. She is proud of the campaign with Bernie, based on issues, not insults.
Trump says we have a divided nation. Look at Charlotte, Wahsington DC, increas in murder, biggest in 45 years, because oof people like her. She has tremendous hate in her heart, and this country cannot take four more years of Barack Obama and that is what you get with her.
Cooper challenges Trump on his twitter activity, especially Machado. Trump riffs off the 3 am ... she had 600 requests for more security in Benghazi, and did not respond when the call came. Trump says Twitter is a form of communication.
Asked "Does Trump have the discipline to be a good leader?" Hillary says No (Trump says "That's a surprise"), and that's not just her opinion. See Republicans. Hillary filibusters against Radditz and Cooper trying to move on. Trump riffs off her filibuster, noting slowest growth since 1935.
Question on SCOTUS justices. To Hillary first. Great closing question for Trump. Hillary wants justices who know how the real world works. Reverse Citizens United. Voting Rights (Trump is going to bring up Heller and the 2nd amendment ... count on it] Marriage equality, Roe v. Wade. Trump would nominate justices who might reverse homo marriage and abortion. She regrets Senate not voting on Obama's nominee. She finds it a dereliction, and hopes they vote soon.
Trump - notes Scalia. He would appoint judges in the mold of Scalia, and has picked 20 candidates (here is your transparency) who will uphold the constitution. He brings up the 2nd amendment, but does not mention the Heller case and her finding that it should be reversed.
Trump wants to know why she is not putting her own money into her own campaign? She's made lots of money.
Hillary says she respects the 2nd amendment, close the gun show and online loopholes (I wish Trump had mentioned Hillary's Heller stance).
Last question is also in Trump's wheelhouse. Energy, ecology and jobs balance.
