I still cannot get over how Trump made one of the most remarkable comebacks I have seen in any endeavor.

I couldn't believe it when Anderson Cooper went straight for the jugular and grilled Trump about the crude comments Trump made, as well as asking him point blank if he forced himself on women (I believe he asked him if he kissed women; Trump said no which isn't true based on some allegations). And then Hillary went with that momentum and brutally cut Trump down, saying he wasn't fit to be president.

At that point you could tell Trump was totally flustered and humiliated and bad body language. He stammered on endlessly on his first question. I think most people in that situation would have just quit and went with the motions.

But then as the debate wore on, you could tell Trump started to relax as he weathered the storm, and he got more confident and feisty. And Hillary by comparison started strong, but faded and by the end was just rambling on with canned statements.

This is just my opinions.

Not that it changes how I feel about this election and who I am voting for.

When it came to Children, he pivoted to ISIS as that was his SOCO. Clinton did it too but is more practiced and adept at it.
In short, he never answered one question put to him, in every instance he immediately pivoted to his SOCO and did a 3 minute rant .
Pretty much what I observed.

It kept him from rambling all over as he did in last debate and probably impressed his core constituency.

Trump brought the issues that the press has not asked for 30 years. Clinton was dumb founded and angry.
Trump in back in the game!

Trump DESTROYED that lyin' Wall Street witch, that's the Trump we know and love!

He was calm and effectively nullified the leaked audio tape incident (which was a non-issue anyways , ie how REAL MEN talk).

Trump is an alpha male, and that was on display tonight, he handled both crooked Hillary and her moderator lackeys flawlessly. Handled their rigged "debate" like a friggin BOSS

One of the best/funniest parts of the debate was Hillary defending Obamacare.... she's such a pro-Wall Street tool it's unbelievable

And the "cherry on top", the fly landing on Shillary's face on national TV and we all know what flies are attracted to....

Word !!!!

Just might end up in jail with Bill down the cell block. I am so glad Trump spoke to the issue like most of us been waiting for. Trump exposed the massive cover by the president and the press!
