Poll - Who won the first Trump/Clinton debate?

[Willie-T]

You posted "paid contributors" while I was talking about hosts and reporters - As I said, we all know Fox occasionally has lib guest contributors. But its hosts and editors remain right wing as you well know.

It's clear you never watch any of Fox's programing. Many of those people are hosts on regular shows.

In the next 8 years, based on the ages of the current Supreme Court justices, the next president will appoint 4 or 5 Supreme Court justices with life-time terms. Their liberal interpretation of the US Constitution will render that document to be basically worthless. This will erode and weaken the legal and moral rights of all citizens.

In 8 years the Democrats will be so entrenched in power that it will be virtually impossible to undue the damage that will be caused. It is critical that the Republicans regain the White House or all will, in all probability, be loss. Living conditions and erosion of religious liberty will become intolerable.

During this 8 year period the economic system of the United States will collapse and with that will come anarchy with no sense of law and order. There will be riots and shortages of basic life necessities. It is a nightmare scenario and it will happen if Hillary Clinton wins the election.

I understand and you are right,I just can't vote for someone that IMO Is so unGODly as Trump,I'm going to write-In my vote and I'm sticking to that option.

CONSERVATIVE Arizona Republic, like the equally CONSERVATIVE Dallas Morning News endorses Hillary. They both know she is far more qualified than is Trump who is highly emotional, spews hate, and is totally unqualified for the job in the White House.

I'm watching Hannity at this very moment - streamed on youtube.

It was not insults it was the truth. The world is aghast at America for having chosen two candidates who are both completely unsuitable for the presidency! I was at church last night, and people could only wonder how any intelligent Christian could support Trump.

Tell me in what way he was articulate last night? A kid in grade 6 with some preparation could have debated better than Trump did! How is he not self serving, in it to lower his and his cronies' taxes! How was he not rude? He constantly interrupted both Hillary and the moderator, kept cluelessly repeating himself when the moderator wanted to move on!

Once it got personal, Trump started ranting and raving! He lost it! Wow! That would go over great on an international stage! He was obnoxious, and infantile. Did you even watch the bizarre facial features he kept making when it was not his turn to speak? He varied between confused, impatient, nasty and just plain idiotic!

I was just boggled to read people here thinking that Trump won the debate because he didn't get pushed around. No, he was the rude boor!! Trump is not a statesman, he is a spoiled brat.

As as for my right to comment, sorry but the debate was on 4 American networks in my living room. FB was filed with posts, reports and blogs. All of which said Trump lost and is not material to be president. One FB friend, ex military and supportive of Trump from the beginning has decided he wants to see Gary Jondon in the next debate. He was embarrassed and sheepish at how badly Trump performed!

The thing is, Canadians know so much more about the US than you know about us. I've lived in the US for 2 years. I lived 48 blocks from the border and cross border shopped weekly for 16 years. I have 9 American cousins, and their spouses and children, as well as American aunts and uncles. The border has been pretty fluid.

And if you want to start a thread saying Trudeau is singularity unqualified to be the Prime Minister of Canada, I will support you 100%. The media drove our election. Trudeau used Obama's slogan "time for a change" like Hillary stole Justin's slogan last night about helping the middle class! Like he is not!

If if the truth hurts, then reconsider what you believe. The only thing I can think that would be worse than Hillary becoming president would be Trump becoming president. Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Trump does not have the maturity to handle power. He proved himself incompetent last night. And if you don't see, well, there are none so blind as those who cannot see!

EXCELLENT description of speaking what Is true.

The whole "qualified" tid-bit was thrown out 8 years ago when Obamanable was elected.

Left-wingers can't use that anymore, as it made no difference to them 8 years ago.

Obama had held political office before entering the White House and has done a great job of clearing up the mess left by Bush. By contrast, Trump has never held office, has gone through bankruptcy repeatedly, and has been bailed out by taxpayers. And, unlike the past, this time as you have seen from my sources, it is the right wing who is saying the Republican candidate is unqualified.

Yeah doubling the debt cleared things up

What accomplishments did President Golf Cart have before being President Obamanable?

What'd he get done as an Illinois Senator or as Senator in the District of Corruption.

You talk about Trump's taxes. Give me some details on Osama Obama's college transcripts.

How's that war against ISIS? How's that inner city violence coming along?

How's that "change" and uniting the country coming along?

How are those salaries and wages coming for Minorities?

How about those family values? Where do I learn about LBGTQRSTUVWXYZ marriage in the Bible?

Scary stuff and for some reason, people still don't get it.

Okay so I've finally watched the entire debate...

I would love to just say he won or she won, but here's what my observations were....

Trump's performance:
I felt that trump was very honest and passionate about most of the things he talked about (except maybe his tax return, but he did say his lawyers told him not to release it..not sure what the deal is, myself) and I think he held his tongue quite a bit in order to be on his best behavior, and he does seem to have a genuine desire to fix things... but I think that due to the moderator pressing him on several issues, and the fact that they were brought up at all when Hillary wasn't pressed on anything, made trump appear defensive and probably a bit humiliated and I believe that was the moderator's goal.

Hillary's performance:
Hillary seemed to be an absolute master at keeping her composure throughout the whole thing, and I'm sure that is something that a lot of folks will see as a plus, but she didn't seem to have any passion at all about the things she says she is going to do. Her answers actually felt rehearsed like she was reciting a speech (even they didn't know the actual questions beforehand). Also, the moderator wasn't pressing her on scandalous subjects like he did to trump.

My Conclusion:
So in conclusion, I think that most people will say it was a draw or close to it... BUT if you take out the scandalous issues that the moderator unfairly dumped on trump and not on hillary, I would say that trump did a more convincing job of winning over those who might have been on the fence because he seems to be truly determined to fix things, whereas Hillary seems more like she's giving a sales pitch.


And... I have heard both candidate's policies and views and I am much more in favor of trump's, but that really has nothing to do with who won a debate.

 

[BruceWayne]

I'm rooting for Trump, but that wasn't great. I won't say he lost the debate, but he sure didn't win it. Tbh, the two of them remind me of an ex bf/gf who can't stand each other lol. Also, if Judge Judy could moderate one of these debates, that would be awesome.
