Trump is a clown and a laughing stock. People in other countries watch and laugh about how someone of that caliber got where he got and is close to be president of the powerful USA.

Seriously, even if you are right wing and somehow agree with some of his rambles when you can make sense of what he is saying (he contradicts himself a lot and doesnt seem to even understands what he is saying 95% of the time), isnt it a little embarrassing that your candidate is a delusional clown that cant even talk straight? Shouldnt USA have a more put together president? Even republican party deserves better than this guy. I mean, seriously, he is an orange lunatic who just screams crazy things. People laugh at him.

Not even for the ideology (i doubt he has any) but for the dignity...the country will go to a new low if you let a ridiculous clown be your president

Its an easy distinction to understand, whether or not you agree with DT as to the relevance of the point.
I don't remember anything Hillary said. I know she talked a lot but just danced around as the politicians do, talking and saying nothing concrete. Hillary called herself a racist. That was true but not everyone in the country as she said.

That didn't happen. I doubt last nights debates will change anything as far as the election is concerned.
You know, that is exactly what I was thinking. I mentioned it to hubby a couple of days ago: unless one of them had screwed up big time, this debate would not mean that much. The last one will be remembered. I think the same, no winners or losers. Actually that probably did work in Thrump's favor though. So many expected him to screw up. Otherwise I don't see last night changing anyone's mind or helping the undecided make a choice.

If I could afford a loophole through our inefficient government I would avoid paying taxes too. I damn sure would so they would not waste my hard earned money. I would give it to charity where I could see it make a difference.
Could that be equated the same as saying, Slavery is not right, but since it was legal, you would have been a supporter of slavery?

Hillary did fine and looked good. I thought she was confident.

Probably no supporters of either one had their minds changed tonight.
I was actually shocked to hear that up to 30% of voters consider themselves undecided.

thanks for the biased opinion. No one asked you or anyone else if he is respected in other countries, the subject is how the two did in the debate last night. I guess you didn't understand that or maybe didn't watch the debate. If people laugh at him, so be it, we don't see much in So. America to laugh at these days, I would think you would enjoy something to smile about.

A lot of people in USA support slavery and want it back. There was a guy here saying he wanted slavery back and i call him "racist" and got banned for it.

Times are changing and ignorance is winning. Every conquered battle will be lost.
