Trump won’t accept the result if he loses. Couldn’t be clearer. ---

After Wallace points out that Trump was fined because of a contribution from his foundation: Trump: “BTW that money was used for veteran housing” Clinton: “Of course, there is no way to now if Trump is telling the truth because he has not released his taxes.” Well, that will leave a 3rd degree burn. ---

Trump is not going to stand by the election results. He is not standing with Pence. ---

> [@oft\_wears\_hats](#): > > Wallace is by far the weakest moderator of the bunch. He’s having a very hard time controlling the debate. I don’t agree. The format is pretty open, and Wallace is letting them sound dumb (interrupting or tanning or avoiding the subject) just enough to let us compare their temperaments. Wallace has directly and fully asked many critical questions – now, about how Trump is unnecessarily undermining confidence in US democracy with his “rigged” crap. ---

Let me respond to that, because that’s… horrifying. That’s amazing. ---

Yes, when Trump doesn’t get what he wants, then the game is rigged. Point all that out. Sent from my HTC6525LVW using Tapatalk ---

> [@GIGObuster](#): > > … > Trump: “BTW that money was used for veteran housing” > > Clinton: “Of course, there is no way to now if Trump is telling the truth because he has not released his taxes.” > … Fisher House isn’t exactly veterans _housing_. > [@](#): > > Fisher House Foundation is best known for a network of comfort homes where families can stay at no cost while a loved one is receiving treatment. These homes are located at major U.S. military and VA medical centers nationwide, close to the medical center or hospital it serves. Fisher Houses have up to 21 suites, with private bedrooms and baths. Families share a common kitchen, laundry facilities, a dining room and a living room. Fisher House Foundation ensures that there is never a fee. Since inception, the program has saved military and veteran families an estimated $200 million in out of pocket costs for lodging and transportation. > > [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher_House_Foundation) I’m guessing Trump has no idea what it is. Similar to Ronald McDonald Houses. ---

Clinton had an opportunity for a kill shot there and really kind of fumbled it. She said the right things in response to his refusal to accept the election results but it wasn’t ordered right and wasn’t simple enough. Oh man, what a miss. ---

I agree he’s been good with the questions. Not so much in enforcing the rules. ---

> [@AnalogSignal](#): > > Clinton showing real emotion on Donald denigrating democracy. Good stuff! That was her best moment in all three debates, in my opinion.
