The debate did not change my mind on any of the issues, however.

Was your mind swayed or changed by the debate and/or do you know of anyone who changed their mind?
No. I was going to vote for Johnson, but can't do it after all the Aleppo moments, and speaking with his tongue out.

So, I won't vote at all.

Out of the two in the debate Trump would be the more harmful one. He does not seem to understand even the basics, and yet he thinks he is smarter than anyone, including generals in military matters. He would handle ISIS exactly the same way Hitler handled Stalingrad, and make a big mess out of it.

Oh boy, a politician promising to fix something that we already can't afford. Cha Ching! Gets you're wallets out!

It would be helpful if the moderator didn't think she was part of the PRESIDENTIAL debate when she's not a nominee. You can't cut someone off, talk over them, and then tell them that you're moving on...she was way out of line, and Trump still made them all look bad.

If we want candidates to follow the rules, the moderators need to set examples.

Anyone who has to check Snopes should not be voting. Do your own research.
I am not lying...you are denying the truth because you may have to give something up.
Lord love a duck.

RWNs have been repeating these conspiracy theory accusations for decades now. No proof, no evidence, not a clue.

Countless investigations that go on and on run by those who would love to pin her to the wall. Yet they never come up with anything. It's crazy.

The venom and hate spewed by RWNs is tearing our country apart.

Put up or shut up.

I guess you haven't heard about Trump's tax cuts. They will add 10 trillion to the national debt.

Wow, I know that is NOT true in my hometown! A non episode? wow. Incorrect! And thank God!, because what that means is there actually *is a basic respect for others that most people eventually insist on, long as it took so many, regardless of party.

Can't wait 'til this sickening fiasco is over with.

If anyone is going to be jettisoned from their long-held positions of power, it's these nauseating, feckless party pooh-bahs.
This.

If anyone claims their mind was changed, they're lying, especially those posing as independents who are suddenly voting for the woman who defended the rapist of a 12 year old and laughed about it. The woman who claims she is for women who've been assaulted, unless, of course, they were assaulted by Bill Clinton. The woman who sold influence as a senator and secretary of state to foreign countries.

Please, take it somewhere else.
