Spoiler: Trump doesn’t come out too well.

Uh, about your link?..
Well, hell. Sorry about that. Don’t bother clicking on that.
Here it is:
That’s weird, because I posted the same link to facebook and it worked, there.
I never imagined that Rick Kitchen had long, blond hair.
Thanks! Who doesn’t like strawberry blondes?
I’ve just started watching this in the UK. Trump has just said to Clinton “No wonder you’ve been fighting ISIS your entire adult life.”
What in the fucking fuck is that crazy fucking motherfucker smoking? He’s just throwing words around and hoping they make sense.
P.S. He just said “We’re stuck in a big fat ugly bubble.” He’s talking about the stock market, but it occurs to me he could just as easily be talking about his own teeth.
I don’t think this makes sense. What you describe in your first paragraph contradicts the rest of your post. Getting caught saying stupid things and “out in the weeds” is what makes him not seem like a presidential contender. You’re saying he looked like a buffoon compared to Clinton, who I presume you think looked Presidential.
I just hope the regression to the mean creates a narrative that Clintons polls are going up. (I’m rather skeptical that debates actually do anything to the polls directly.)
I didn’t watch, so this is an honest (but leading) question: did Trump repeat himself, as in your parody, during the debate?
I fully expect an epic Donald Trump tweetstorm within the next 48 hours.
Saw her on MSNBC. Didn’t look at all composed with Matthews pressing her on Iraq, birtherism, and income taxes.
Now MSNBC is running the Hillary “girl” ad. Nice touch, that.
To be fair, I have a vague recollection that he said his usual campaign trail stuff like that a couple of times, but I couldn’t tell you in connection with which issue. And he didn’t use it as often as I expected he would. But that was ok. He came unhinged more than once and reacted predictably.
I was so pleased.
Hell, why not, Trump does!
Trinopus, if you’re interested, C-SPAN is rerunning the debate now.
Yes.
Yes, he did.
He did that.
Yes.
I’m sure he did but his strategy is to make shit up, and say it confidently. This works well when speaking to low information voters and true believers. It doesn’t work too well with your opponent standing right there to contradict you confidently, and a moderator doing some of the same.
Trump’s difficulty however is that he doesn’t really have a plan B. There is nothing behind the smoke and mirrors. Someone like say GWB could talk folksy, but had at least some substance to fall back on in more serious situations. Trump has nothing. The only thing he could practice was throwing out extra smoke and installing a few more mirrors in the hope that he could at least hold his supporters.
