Wrong.

Wrong.

Donald Trump… Wrong… when he speaks, it sounds like someone reading off the words of a completed Scrabble game.

Donald, muttering “wrong” into your mic repeatedly is not an argument.

I don’t think Wallace has lost control. Weren’t there tons more interruptions in the first debate? And he’s playing hardball with both of them. Bring it. Hillary can handle anything he can throw at her without losing her cool. Donald, not so much.

Pretty sure Gary Johnson could out debate Trump on Mosul.

Now, back to the element of surprise.

True (since the first ten minutes or so – he started out enforcing well, but not so much since then).

He’s doing well now, calling Trump out on his previous Aleppo mistake.

Wallace just giggled after Clinton’s comment about Berne being right?
