Trump just wished Hillary lots of luck in the coming years! I think he is admitting Hillary will win.

By saying “lots of luck, Hillary”, is he showing subconciously that he knows he’s going to lose?

“Assad is a bad guy.”

Trump makes foreign policy so _easy_-peasy. It’s all words of one syllable.

Yeah, he did some homework.

At this point the words are kind of flowing together. He’s yelling and sounds angry and frustrated. She sounds balanced and calm.

She’s Presidential, he’s completely out of it. He’d do better as a spaghetti salesman, but I think he’d even screw that up.

Mrs. Clinton, IMO, has been about the closest to eloquent I’ve ever seen her. Certainly better than the first two events.

Yeah, you can make the economy grow, Trump. Sure. We believe you.

And we can do it with protectionism. Adam Smith wants to strangle this shithead.

She is so smart to just let him ramble without interrupting. Who can follow what he is talking about from one sentence to another. You can practically hear eyes glazing over.
