Elections First Presidential Debate Discussion: 9/26/16

Who won the debate?


  • Total voters
    495
  • Poll closed .
Trump called out Hillary extremely clearly on her emails, and on how big ISIS got because of the govt she was part of.

Her response: laughter and denial

She did not deny anything. She did laugh though. The emails are so fucking old. Been addressed a million times. I deleted 89 emails today. Based on a 5 day work week that comes to 92,560. None of them implicated me of wrongdoing.

Trump got wrecked. Everyone knows it.
 
People are going to remember the stupid stuff. He harped too much at times and it didn't make him look good.

At least that's my opinion.

maybe, but I don't look at who won a debate by who will get more support, personally. I think the average voter is a moron regardless of who they vote for.

I think in terms of actual debating content he won. but I see what you mean.
 
what I saw was an unimpressive but convincing victory for Trump.

He won and hit her hard on the points that really mattered--the economy and foreign relations.

He fumbled stupidly on topics that shouldn't actually be very relevant (like the birther issue)

I think Trump won but in the eyes of undecideds or people that don;t watch politics I am willing to bet many saw Hillary as the winner.

he missed so many openings and opportunities. Part of the reason is because Lester kept letting Hillary ramble on but Trump had to fight for 20 seconds here and there.

Much of it was on him though for not clarifying his attacks and defenses. Even with the emails...talk about the bleachbit, them being erased after the subpeona, the hammering of Blackberries, Obama's pseudonym etc
 
Hillary said a bunch of nothing and make little jabs at trump. Trump did good the first 20 minutes or so and then went off the rails and said all sorts of stupid shit.
Was it entertaining though? Not sure I want to watch the whole thing if there weren't some zingers in it.

"haha yeah i was secretary of the state and according to the FBI I had some really important emails that I deleted from an illegal private server but it was a couple months ago, who cares?"
 
Polls are irrelevant, and biased. Read the posts.

Posts or not, they're not representative of the numbers on here, which is what you're talking about right?

Edit: Unless we're to say there's Hillary-supporting users with multiple accounts voting for Hillary multiple times?
 
All the online polls have Trump winning the debate.

Crazy. As a Trump supporter, what the hell were you guys watching? That's just a popularity contest poll.
Trump had the trade portion going hard, but the rest was fairly even I'de say. Each had their moments.

I think the thing on hilary is like you watch a high volume fighter that does a ton of offense but little damage. The fact that trump was so high volume would lead you to believe slight advantage. Hilary did start off very lethargic and emotionless. "Check my website".... that's so lame.
 
Voted tie because I haven't watched the debate yet, but wanted to see the poll results. So did Trump get steamrolled or something?

I sort of like Trump and hate Clinton so perfect to sum it up fair and unbiased :-)
If this would have been a normal debate with two normal candidate Clinton would have clearly won. Trump was Trump a bit toned down. Hillary said nothing new but a solid performance.
Remains to be seen if the whole Trump appeal worked in this debate.

Seriously?

That's pretty shocking if true. If the majority of people think he won that debate, then he is pretty much free to do what he wants from here on out.

Call her a cunt next time. Fuck it.

I was being sarcastic about him doing nothing different, i thought he started out well and then became a trainwreck. Many of his supporters seem to disagree though.

Trump tried to use emotional appeal, Hilary tried to appeal to robots.
 
Most online polls are being brigated by Redditors on the donald. Hillary won this debate. Still things can change on the next debate.
 
Thats the whole quote nothing removed, you can go back and watch it again. Every word Trump said is in that quote.
You are right, sorry, i did not read your quote closely.

She responded to the personal insult. I see nothing wrong with that, except with how lame it was.
