He's not acting super-aggro and shrill, but he's still giving non-answers. Lester holding Trump to the question which is good.

So far this is basically what I expected. Trump talking in circles around the same problems he's based his campaign on, but failing to offer substantive solutions.

"Lie" isn't quite accurate. If she said the 70-whatever cents on every dollar number, that one's a lie. Women get paid less for equal work is at least arguable


"For equal work" is a lie. The wage gap is the average earnings of men and women across ALL fields. Women on average enter less playing fields, get less paying degress, often drop out of the workforce earlier than men, are generally more interested in a stable family life than moving up, etc. Discrimination plays a zero or near-zero role in it.


Wrong. There is an unquantifiable (by economics) wage gap between women and men that's around 5-8%. Its certainly not the 30% spread by one side, but it's also certainly not the zero spread by the others.


Honestly I'm mentally applauding Clinton for not dropping the 30 cents stat

His one attempt to cut her off was just completely ignored by her. That's actually pretty impressive, the way she just acted like it didn't happen. Wonder if he'll act up when she doesn't give him attention

Honestly so far it seems like Trump is doing better than Hillary so far. At least if I look at it from a theoretical "undecided voter" perspective. Trump has a very simple and clear plan while Hillary is doing some poorly pointed bashing.

The less you drop specific numbers in a debate that will be as scrutinized as this, it's better to be be generalized.

Rofl Donald denying he said the Chinese are behind climate change.

Trump seems 100% focused on money and not thinking about the future of energy with this answer.

The most interesting part of this debate is watching Trump slowly go from the mellow serious candidate that they tried to have him rehearse as into the same arrogant blowhard that he really is. Its already happening and we arent even a half hour into the debate. He wont last the entire time.

Which part is looking good on? The interruptions or the 4th grade language or 3rd grade views of the economy?
