Rolling Stones counted 19…. Let's delve into them. It was clear who prepped and who decided to watch Thundercat reruns. And although the first betting projections have swung on hillary’s favor…. We should realize that this could move the needle in her favor just a few points, this is what debates do… They don't move the decideds.
On the housing crash
Clinton: "Donald was one of the people who rooted for the housing crisis. He said, back in 2006, 'Gee, I hope it does collapse, because then I can go in and buy some and make some money.' Well, it did collapse —" Trump: "That's called business, by the way." Clinton: "Nine million people — nine million people lost their jobs. Five million people lost their homes. And $13 trillion in family wealth was wiped out."
So, Mr. trump, as President , as long as you get your way and gain something... Casualties don’t matter
On climate change
Clinton: "Donald thinks that climate change is a hoax perpetrated by the Chinese. I think it's real." Trump: "I did not. I did not. I do not say that." (He did.)
Yup, click the link as Chinese created it to make us buy their stuff?????
On the TPP
Trump: "You called it the gold standard of trade deals. You said it's the finest deal you've ever seen, and then you heard what I said about it, and all of a sudden you were against it." Clinton: "Well, Donald, I know you live in your own reality, but that is not the facts. The facts are: I did say I hoped it would be a good deal, but when it was negotiated which I was not responsible for, I concluded it wasn't. I wrote about that in my book —" Trump: "So, is it President Obama's fault?" Clinton: "—before you even announced." Trump: "Is it President Obama's fault?"
Seriously, from I’m rubber and you're glue to… When all else fails say “Obama"
On Clinton’s plan to fight ISIS
Trump: "Just go to her website. She tells you how to fight ISIS on her website. I don't think General Douglas MacArthur would like that too much." Clinton: "Well, at least I have a plan to fight ISIS."
....
Trump: "You're telling the enemy everything you want to do." Clinton: "No, we're not. No, we're not." Trump: "See, you're telling the enemy everything you want to do. No wonder you've been fighting — no wonder you've been fighting ISIS your entire adult life." Clinton: "That's a — that's — go to the — please, fact checkers, get to work."
Just.no.words
On the contents Trump’s tax returns
Clinton: "You've got to ask yourself, why won't he release his tax returns? And I think there may be a couple of reasons. First, maybe he's not as rich as he says he is. Second, maybe he's not as charitable as he claims to be.Third, we don't know all of his business dealings, but we have been told through investigative reporting that he owes about $650 million to Wall Street and foreign banks. Or maybe he doesn't want the American people, all of you watching tonight, to know that he's paid nothing in federal taxes, because the only years that anybody's ever seen were a couple of years when he had to turn them over to state authorities when he was trying to get a casino license, and they showed he didn't pay any federal income tax." Trump: "That makes me smart." Clinton: "So if he's paid zero, that means zero for troops, zero for vets, zero for schools or health. And I think probably he's not all that enthusiastic about having the rest of our country see what the real reasons are, because it must be something really important, even terrible, that he's trying to hide.”
Thisxthe one for the history books…. I tweeted it like crazy… Zero for student debt relief, zero for renewable energy,,, listen that Millenials?
On the country’s problems
Trump: "Our country has tremendous problems. We're a debtor nation. We're a serious debtor nation. And we have a country that needs new roads, new tunnels, new bridges, new airports, new schools, new hospitals. And we don't have the money, because it's been squandered on so many of your ideas." Clinton: "And maybe because you haven't paid any federal income tax for a lot of years." Trump: "It would be squandered, too, believe me."
Aaaaaaand you verify you didn't pay federal taxes '
On Stop-and-frisk
Holt: "Stop-and-frisk was ruled unconstitutional in New York, because it largely singled out black and Hispanic young men." Trump: "No, you're wrong. It went before a judge, who was a very against-police judge. It was taken away from her. And our mayor, our new mayor, refused to go forward with the case. They would have won an appeal. If you look at it, throughout the country, there are many places where it's allowed." [Trump is wrong; it was ruled unconstitutional.] Holt: "The argument is that it's a form of racial profiling." Trump: "No, the argument is that we have to take the guns away from these people that have them and they are bad people that shouldn't have them. These are felons. These are people that are bad people that shouldn't be — when you have 3,000 shootings in Chicago from January 1st, when you have 4,000 people killed in Chicago by guns, from the beginning of the presidency of Barack Obama, his hometown, you have to have stop-and-frisk."
NRA.… Drops jaw… And it didn't stop there... NRA must've been drunk by then
this made my nerd self boil and then the fat joke just brought him down
On "the cyber"
Trump: "As far as the cyber, I agree to parts of what Secretary Clinton said. We should be better than anybody else, and perhaps we're not. I don't think anybody knows it was Russia that broke into the DNC. She's saying Russia, Russia, Russia, but I don't – maybe it was. I mean, it could be Russia, but it could also be China. It could also be lots of other people. It also could be somebody sitting on their bed that weighs 400 pounds, OK?"
So... This is just racism that benefited the POC? I mean… Someone stop him, fake a lower GI problem '
On who Trump's "birther" crusade benefitted
Trump: "I feel that [the African-American community] really wanted me to come to that conclusion. And I think I did a great job and a great service not only for the country, but even for the president, in getting him to produce his birth certificate."
Trump hearts Hannity '
Trumpian word salad, invoking the Hannity defense
Trump: "The record shows that I'm right. When I did an interview with Howard Stern, very lightly, first time anyone's asked me that, I said, very lightly, I don't know, maybe, who knows? Essentially. I then did an interview with Neil Cavuto. We talked about the economy is more important. I then spoke to Sean Hannity, which everybody refuses to call Sean Hannity. I had numerous conversations with Sean Hannity at Fox. And Sean Hannity said – and he called me the other day – and I spoke to him about it – he said you were totally against the war, because he was for the war." Holt: "Why is your judgment better than..." Trump: "And when he – excuse me. And that was before the war started. Sean Hannity said very strongly to me and other people – he's willing to say it, but nobody wants to call him. I was against the war. He said, you used to have fights with me, because Sean was in favor of the war.
"And I understand that side, also, not very much, because we should have never been there. But nobody called Sean Hannity. And then they did an article in a major magazine, shortly after the war started. I think in '04. But they did an article which had me totally against the war in Iraq.
"And one of your compatriots said, you know, whether it was before or right after, Trump was definitely – because if you read this article, there's no doubt. But if somebody – and I'll ask the press – if somebody would call up Sean Hannity, this was before the war started. He and I used to have arguments about the war. I said, it's a terrible and a stupid thing. It's going to destabilize the Middle East. And that's exactly what it's done. It's been a disaster."
This takes the cake… We should post the best split screen moments of the night
On whether Clinton looks "presidential"
Trump: "She doesn’t have the look; she doesn’t have the stamina. I said she doesn’t have the stamina. And I don't believe she has the stamina. To be president of this country you need tremendous stamina." Holt: "The quote was: 'I just don't think she has a presidential look —'" Trump: "Wait a minute, Lester, you asked me a question — did you ask me a question? You have to be able to negotiate our trade deals, you have to be able to negotiate. That's right. With Japan, with Saudi Arabia. I mean can you imagine, we're defending Saudi Arabia — with all the money they have, we're defending them, and they're not paying? All you have to do is speak to 'em — wait. You have so many things you have to do, and I don't believe that Hillary has the stamina. Holt: "Let's let her respond." Clinton: "Well, as soon as he travels to 112 countries, and negotiates a peace deal, a ceasefire, a release of dissidents, an opening of new opportunities in nations around the world — or even spends 11 hours testifying before a congressional committee, he can talk to me about stamina."
