I listened on the radio—NPR—so I wasn’t seeing facials or body language.
Trump showed more preparation with facts, was good on his comebacks, played rope-a-dope with finesse. Didn’t let her lead or entrap him. Yay!
Was wonderfully punchy——he got under her skin and made her defensive and flustered several times.
Nailed her on every transgression, called out her pay for play, she created ISIS, takes money from women-oppressing regimes, weakened military, and “we’re treating illegal aliens better than our veterans” was a great punch that I loved.
She was well rehearsed as usual. She blew my mind when she started accusing Trump of collusion with Russian hackers, and even used the word espionage. Unfreakin’ beleeeevable!
I thought Chris Wallace was comparatively more fair than prior moderators.
The operative word being ‘comparatively.’
He didn’t softball Hilly, and he let Trump finish even when he rambled on and on. He fussed at both Hilly and Trump for not answering the specific question.
Trump’s finale nailed it, especially the appeal to blacks: the Dems come around when they want your vote, but your life never gets any better. Zinger! Good one.
The NPR moderators at the summation were falling all over themselves trying to sound unbiased, saying very grudgingly that Trump sounded “more disciplined” and “focused” (translation: he was nailing her) but then insisting it wouldn’t do any good because Hilly represents everybody.
Barf. Yeah, they’re worried.
Good points and we agree on them.
Meanwhile, the commentators are busy twisting Trump’s meaning about accepting the results. Classic misdirection. They mischaracterize his statement and then attack it. Perry on FBN did a commendable job pinning Cavuto, the turd down, but he just kept comming back with his whinny questioning technique which I hate. Hey Neil: he shut you down twice so what did you do, you restate the answer again and then bid Perry goodnight, asshole.
‘Was wonderfully punchy——he got under her skin and made her defensive and flustered several times.’
Yeah, Trump had been thrown off balance more in previous debates when she attacked his business practices. He took it in his stride this time and turned the tables: “If you allow me to run this nation the way I run my business ...”
Yeah!
And he pointed out the ‘stupid’ trade deals, the stupid Iran deal, Russia ate their lunch in Syria, Iran will be nuked up ...
And the way he turned the tables with the Chicago riot — big zinger there.
