He’s already sniffed in excess of 15 times, by my count. Not looking good for Trump.

Wow, Trump is actually on a script, repeating talking points and everything. Doesn’t work for him though. And of course he’s changed the subject again. Oh, and there’s “locker room talk” for the third time. Obviously drilled into his head.

Wow, Hillary - questioning Trump’s fitness to serve. What we all saw Friday was what Donald thinks about and does to women. Good shot Hillary.  
Trump is pacing.

Trump’s a rambling old man at best. He’s low-energy. He’s just a tired old man who can’t stick to a topic.

Clinton: I spent a lot of time thinking over the last 48 hours…

Real Clinton: My staff spent a lot of time with focus groups over the last 48 hours and this is what I’ve been told would be the best thing to say at this debate.
