We all want her destroyed, but it won’t happen in a debate. It’ll happen when Trump wins.
Trump did OK. He didn’t hurt himself. He got in some zingers. He didn’t look scary. He talked very knowledgeably about economics, trade, taxes, etc.
I chalk this up as a WIN for Trump. We’ll see what the ratings actually are, but if 100 million people really saw Trump tonight, with a lot possibly for the first time, great! This was a great exposure for him.
Yes, he had opportunities to really crush her, and he may have missed them, but he didn’t say anything that will come back to haunt him, he kept his composure, and he looked the part.
Hillary didn’t do terribly, but she did look medicated and a bit off. She faded throughout the debate, didn’t look terribly steady at the end going down the stairs to her family/audience, and didn’t really do anything to help her case.
Everyone knows who Hillary is, supporters, detractors, and undecideds. There are a lot fo people who still believe the lies about Trump, and tonight should be a step in the right direction countering them.
Net WIN for Trump, nothing ground breaking. Trump should continue to gain in the polls.
