He actually said:

He used the word “more” twice in that sentence. He’s not even listening to himself.

Grommit.

In the interest of not having a heart attack, I decided not to watch the debate and follow it here. Thank you, my brave mine canaries.

Heh, Trump was nodding in agreement when Clinton was talking about Trump running a divisive campaign, but his reptilian brain told him to nix that and he reacted to the other bad things Clinton was adding to the list and Trump then began to shake his head in denial.

Hmm. Clinton dodging question on ‘pay for play’ in Clinton Foundation.

On the other hand, Trump: Clinton Foundation is a criminal enterprise? Please.

I keep waiting for him to whip out a cigarette and start off a response with “Hickory dickery dock…”

His speaking style is just so…trashy.

Wallace is by far the weakest moderator of the bunch. He’s having a very hard time controlling the debate.
