She intentionally said an untruth to try to bait him.

Did anyone find this comment incredibly sexist? (Trump's, not yours, PP. )

She blinking once per second. Nerves, but it is distracting.

The $14 million was a lie. It was $1 million - still big bucks - but she lied about the amount and had to attack him personally, right out of the gate.

He didn't correct her $14 mil. If she was wrong, he would've definitely corrected her right there.

Yes, he did correct her. He didn't want to give the exact amount, because he knew even $1 million would look bad.

ONE dollar would look bad to her.
Looks at what SHE'S giving HER daughter.
Hypocrite Hillary!

Trump is taking a different approach regarding bringing jobs back home.

Except that no one with any economic understanding believes his proposals could possibly work. I can keep reading my kids fairy tales, but that doesn't make me Cinderella.

And now he's proving my point -- he can't actually explain how he'd do it. "I'll negotiate better trade agreements." Um, how are you going to force the rest of the world to give you more without expecting anything in return. And doesn't seem to understand the repercussions of imposing new tariffs on imports.

He finally did - taxing goods coming back into the US. I'm not a fan of clinton's response regarding the housing crisis and clean energy. She's too all over the place and needs to focus.

I know he said taxing goods, but he's never acknowledged that there will be significant consequences for the U.S. if we do that. Given how blind he seems to be to it, I can only conclude he doesn't understand at all how tariffs work, and what the consequences of his proposals will be.

Trump is constantly sniffling. He's definitely coming down with something.

How does it compare to trump's weird nose-huff breathing in terms of distracting-ness

[Anonymous]

how did she get them to agree to side by side head filling frame shots? She appears larger than Trump. They are both at least coherent, so...she has already won. Appearance is everything. Nice misdirection to get the Trumpsters worrying about platgorms and podiums.

Donald, I know you live in your own reality...

Priceless.

There's no way congress would pass that. And if they do tax it, that will get past on to you, the consumer.
