Jesus christ, “she doesn’t want to use the words law and order?” WTF? Is that the new “Radical Islamic Terrorism”? ---

> [@shantih](#): > > BTW, mad props to Lester Holt for his moderation so far. He’s been calm but firm about sticking to the agreed-upon format as closely as possible and hasn’t let the interruptions get out of hand. Agreed. I’m very happy with his performance so far. ---

I don’t think Hilary is doing quite as well as some here think. She’s had a goofy smug grin now and then. Her sing-song “at least I haaaave a plaaan” was cringe-worthy. She’s really not charismatic. That said, Donald Trump is completely barking mad, lying like lies are on sale, and making word salad like he’s taking a SlapChop to a Webster’s. He’s had a couple of zingers but no actual coherency. He keeps whipping out his bank account like we’re all impressed at its size and want to suck it. Hilary isn’t giving an amazing debate, but it’s still on a different level to Trump. She at least seems more like a human being than a cartoon. ---

> [@ElvisL1ves](#): > > “Law and order” is a code phrase. His supporters know what it means. I don’t think it’s a code phrase in the sense that it’s hiding something specific. I think it’s just a “fill in your understanding here, because that’s what I want” kind of deal. ---

“Our police are afraid to do anything…” DT Trump just told Holt he was wrong about stop and frisk. And it was the judges fault because he didn’t like police? ---
