As a hard-of-hearing person who uses earphones, it was hard for me to get past Trump's constant sniffing and in the latter half his sucking air, almost wheezing.
Very distracting.
ETA: Well, that's interesting. Post has been deleted. Somebody on Clinton's team posted a tweet in response to Trumps' observation that the Muslim serviceman who was killed in the line of duty would not have died if he had been president, because we wouldn't have gone into Iraq. The tweet said "Donald, go f**k yourself"
I find it absolutely reprehensible that the first 40 minutes of this debate were almost exclusively finger pointing, blaming, shouting, whining, and complaining. The fact that these two were decided by the American people to represent their respective political parties is shameful. Presidential debates are supposed to be about addressing the issues and informing the audience. Instead what we saw was a Jerry Springer episode with a formal dress code. Pathetic.
The Commission on Presidential Debates has lost all credibility by allowing the discussion to degrade to this level. I'm tired of hearing about how terrible Trump/Clinton is. I want to know what they're going to do to address the problems our country faces.
If the Commission on Presidential Debates has an ounce of dignity left, they will invite Gary Johnson to the final debate next Sunday and redirect their focus from a catfight to a forum on issues that will impact each and every one of us for decades.
Despite that finger pointing stuff - which did go on but the moderators (and the questions) were as much to blame as the candidates - there was a LOT of issue discussion coming out of Trump .. not so much out of Hillary. When they allowed the second question to target Trump about the old video ... what was he supposed to talk about?
