Lets not lose sight of the fact that basically admitted that he has not paid ANY federal taxes. So far, THAT is the thing that is going to stick after this debate. ---

What’s depressing is that, to me, Trump is falling apart. Shitting his pants in front of an audience of 100 million. But tomorrow, the media will probably go on about how presidential he was because he didn’t get into a fistfight with Holt. ---

Well if I didn’t have to get up at 5:30am to go to physical therapy before work I’d be totally shitfaced by now. Time to write another check to the Hillary Victory Fund. ---

By the way, both candidates use dog-whistles: Trump using “law and order” and Clinton referring to Trumps “rallies”. ---
