** SDMB live coverage thread, 2nd POTUS debate, 10/09/2016 **

“Hillary did noting about health care!” - El Trompo.

:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Taxes to ISIS, that’s connecting the dots Trump.

Is the tax code bad? If so, then yes.

I did not realize that Hillary Clinton was our dictator for the past 30 years.

How many times has Cooper had to remind Trump not to interrupt Clinton?

“Well, here we go again.”

Trump doesn’t know what Senators do, and he can’t help but interrupt.

In Clinton’s favor, if you’re going to rely on coaching to get through a debate, at least be coachable. Trump is reciting his talking points, but clumsily. He’s obviously listened to his people but he just throws the talking points out there randomly.

So annoying. She has not been a law maker for 30 years. She was a senator for 8 and a secretary of state for 4. Even when she was first lady, she did try to get laws past (healthcare, hello!). Why is this charge even allowed…

One hour and three audience questions.

Cool, he just gave Hillary a perfect opening for discussing her public service.

I’m telling you guys- there are an awful lot of people who will see this as a Trump win.

“Mister Trump, we’re going to move on.”

1 hour in. Hillary the clear winner.

Trump interrupting again. Moderators are doing a great job

It is a dumb charge, although if he was effective he’d note that her experience argument is vastly overrated. She was a junior Senator and Secretary of State and that’s the sum of her actual experience. That’s mediocre for a Presidential candidate.

only his core, so it does him no good

“Mr. Trump, shut the fuck up so we can talk about Syria”. OK, the Moderator didn’t actually say that.

No. It’s always about temperament at these debates and Trump is failing as badly as last time. And Clinton’s performance has improved.

Trump has landed some punches(you can tell because she smiles when he does), but his performance is just terrible.

55:45 though. Not a blowout.

Trump probably doesn’t know Allepo is in Syria. Let’s see what he says when it’s his turn to speak.

Explicitly comparing Aleppo to the Holocaust. Good tack.

I can’t wait to see how Trump fucks this one up.
