First Trump/Clinton debate

[tombogan03884]

Remember how people, especially liberal, made fun of J. Edgar Hoover for standing on a box to appear taller ?
 During tonight's debate, even before you check for coughing, or freeze ups indicating another Hillary seizure, look at the comparative heights of the candidates.
 Then consider that Donald Trump is 6'3" while Granny Nasty is 5'4".

Well, further to fall if she locks up from a seizure.

Or that Woody The Woodpecker head bobbing thing she does.....

I'm going insane.  This is so bad.  Miss Kitty insist we watch the debate.  I'm mentally climbing the walls.

Well, she didn't "Woody Woodpecker" last night.  Trump missed his chance to clinch the election by linking economic recovery with race relations...his law and order message was too strong and he should have tempered it and put it behind providing inner city jobs.  He has a plan to bring the $2 trillion back into the US with the stipulation that a percentage be spent in the inner cities....I never heard that last night...duh.  It was his chance for everyone to hear it now only some of his supporters know.  That would have gotten some percentage of inner city voters and caused others to stay home.

If he would have linked monetary repatriation to the race relations it would have won the election for him.  Instead he responded defensively most of the night when he could have put this election away.  Correcting what is right and wrong in the media is nice but ultimately non-productive.  What the unwashed masses come away with should have been his focal point not bickering.  Not getting into an argument about who is right and who is wrong was, in my opinion, far less important than explaining how he was going to employ and keep inner city males out of jail and to train them in jail for the jobs he was bringing in.  Whether that will work or not is not relevant...winning the election is.

He defended himself because that is what a rich guy does to be accepted so he can show he's one of the guys too and you will like him.  Don't get me wrong, he had good points...but when the income tax thing came around stick with the simple message.  Emails for income tax..and don't brag about being smart about not paying tax you dumb ass....most of us on the bottom down here can't access that because we are EMPLOYEES.  She ripped him and he took the bait when he should have asked her about her charitable donations that is really money laundering into the Clinton foundation.  Also link that her paid taxes were from huge corporations and special interests paying her to show up for a meeting and grace their presence for future payoffs....but no word on that dumb ass.   

Security...what about how she "reset" the relations with that idiot button and was ridiculed in the Russia for it.  Lost that opportunity.  Or how the Clinton's had that sweet uranium deal with Russia when nukes were talked about.  He even fell short on putting her away on the Iran issue which should have been a slam dunk....and what about Benghazi?  Chaos in Libya she is responsible for and he could not find the Benghazi club to use on her.

He's focused on a rich guy being accepted.  That's not the job here.  Getting elected is.

Now it's uphill again when he had the wind at his back.

Didn't watch it for more than a few minutes.  Woke up in the early morn and watched a few points being made but watching that hag for more than a few moments makes me nauseous!

I'm not his target audience, I've made up my mind to vote for the Constitution so that's Trump...

Listening to the local talk station this morning and it appears he missed a few chances to slam her good and didn't.

[tombogan03884]

Trump supports gun rights and national concealed carry, Hillary supports confiscation.
Nothing else matters.

[alfsauve]

It was a horrible train wreck. 

Hillary managed to pull off a real suave appearance.  Didn't loose it, didn't cough one (medicated?) and kept her patented, maternal smile on all night.

I threw up in my mouth...


On myself...


On the chair...

On the floor.

I didn't see any reason to watch. It isn't going to change my vote, and I really don't need a reminder of how bad my choice really is.

What I don't understand is how folks are still undecided between the two. At least verbally, they are almost polar opposites. How can you not already know where you stand?

I will say that I could understand still being on the fence about voting third party. I  may not think it's the best move, but I can understand not wanting to vote for either of them.

[tombogan03884]

I'm voting for a PRESIDENT, not a BFF.
I want some one who considers leg breaking an acceptable form of diplomacy, I'll settle for some one who says mean things.
Trump supports "stop and frisk" ? Good. It worked.
Just like racial profiling always works.
