She’s calling him on his lies, and he brings up the fact she’s actually competent.

So yeah, let’s dig into the history. Let’s do that. You wanna do that, Donny? Let’s do that.

And after interrupting her dozens of times in this and the other debates, Trump now has the gall to say, “My turn”? God almighty.
