    Oh, Hillary very deliberately didn't shake Trump's hand after. I don't like that. It's just rude.

    It is amazing how terrible they both are. He was more terrible then her tonight. But for these terrible times I still think he is the more appropriate terrible candidate.

    God help us all
  • Even to Donalds final day it is amazing that he still takes her crap.
    Hillary will be the next POTUS, why is he entertaining this?

    Are you wondering why he doesn't drop out of the race?
    If so, I figure it's just because his ego won't allow it. And maybe because it would be an even worse shit show than he's already got going.
    If that's not what you meant, what did you mean? That he should just tell her to shut the fuck up and walk outt of the room? (I am genuinely asking without an attitude, lol)

    Or complimenting Putin while criticizing Obama, Reagan, Clinton and both Bushs. He never days anything positive about any potus.

    I didn't see that. She walked towards Wallace while he stayed back and waited. He didn't put himself in the position to shake hands.

    Interesting how the pundits are making such a big deal out of Trump's refusal to say he'd accept the election results. I didn't find that surprising at all. That he wouldn't say it is a big deal because it shows us how ridiculous he is, but I didn't think for a second that he'd concede that during the debate. The "rigged election" thing is the only thing keeping him going at this point.

    The fact that Conway and Pence both this week said he would makes it even more of a story. He could have qualified it with Florida 2000 and he could have got away with it.

    One of my fears coming out of these debates is that Clinton may well plunge us (ok, I'm Canadian, so you Americans, really) into another Cold War with Russia, given her rhetoric against Putin and his hackers. At least we'll have to pray it stays cold.

    One other point of interest was how often it's being said "nowhere in history" has such-and-such happened, when some things could only have been possible in the last couple decades (such as Russians hacking Clinton's email, or Trump's refusal to commit to accepting the election results-how often was that a question in previous debates, especially since Al Gore?).

    A cyber war is already happening. It won't be a military war.

    Ironic that Hilliary mentions trump being a puppet for Putin, isn't that precisely what the US does? Anyone who isn't a puppet Putin isv the enemy.

    Why would anyone commit to accepting election results 3 weeks prior? I'd question anyone's judgement that would commit without knowing the circumstances.

    C'mon... are you just trying to be a contrarian here?

    The peaceful xfer of power is the rock on which our republic stands. If he would have said.."Of course I will concede if I lose, barring something extraordinary like the situation in Florida in 2000 where it takes some time to work out the rightful winner". Had he said that, this wouldn't be a problem.
