And for gods sake Trump, stop sniffing into the microphone.
Maybe he coked up before the show?
Maybe he grabbed too much pussy and got pubes in his nose somehow?
Not watching this, but following updates. I'm thinking that Clinton doubling down on Trump being a misogynist, sex offender isn't the best tactic when married to Bill Clinton.

Bit hard to go too far down that road with your husbands rape victims in the audience

@Rancid-Schnitzel And then claiming to take a high road??? Clinton lecturing anyone on being on a high road is just ludicrous. She is right roadside of the low road rolling around in the muck with Trump.. and Bill.

Yes and yes.

I am looking around at a few sites to see reactions and the variations are quite amazing. FiveThirtyEight are providing the most critical appraisal of Trump and most complimentary view of Clinton.

People talk about a mud slinging match but both these candidates entered the debate already covered in mud. Just incredible, I'm not Obama's biggest fan but a candidate like him would have a field day with these two.

Winning moment in a debate that resembled 4chan at times.

His hands are too small to allow him to grab too much pussy.

Clinton is painful to watch at times. Her talking doesnt flow.
Trumps low voice, simple choice of words and steady rhythm carry much better.
His walking around will be viewed negatively by many. I'm not sure it was up there with the "Gore/Bush handshake" but I imagine some will focus on it as a further example of his lack of respect for women.Trump did better than the first debate. The initial onslaught seemed to rattle Clinton.
He certainly scored the hit of the night with his "because you'd be in jail" quip to her "we dont want a man like this in charge of law" -
Anderson Cooper's opening line of questioning about Trump's comments being "sexual assault" was fucking ridiculous, I was cringing hard. Way to show your obvious bias from the get go "moderator".. lol.
It was a dirtier debate then the first and I think a lot of what Trump said will appeal to large portions of Americans. Of course the SJWs will get their hashtags going but I think Trump is back on even stevens after that. There is a pretty obvious distrust of Hilary among the general public and Trump fanned those flames today.
The third debate will be interesting. I've always followed American politics but this particular election has been fascinating watching from afar. "Scary" is probably the word you'd use if you live in the States.

This is what the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said in response to "no-fly-zone" proposals last month:
"Right now, senator, for us to control all of the airspace in Syria it would require us to go to war, against Syria and Russia. That's a pretty fundamental decision that certainly I'm not going to make."
The proposals are insane.

@hydro11 Because it hits perfectly on the narrative that she's the recipient of some very odd leniency from the FBI.
I thought Comey's explanation made it very clear. There was no way you could convict Clinton. You would have had to prove that she deliberately made her server easy to hack into.
The line is also terrible because, if taken seriously, it suggests that Trump would use the presidency to settle personal vendettas. If taken as a joke (as Trump surrogates say it should be), then why is he even making that joke? Where is Trump's comprehensive plan to reform the American justice system? If the system is so corrupt shouldn't Trump want to fix it? Trump's whole plan essentially comes down to "I am smart. I will pick good people." Well, that's a terrible system because a good system needs to withstand a dumb person.

The actual question:
"We received a lot of questions online, Mr. Trump, about the tape that was released on Friday, as you can imagine. You called what you said “locker room banter.” You described kissing women without consent, grabbing their genitals. That is sexual assault. You brag that you have sexually assaulted women. Do you understand that?"
Absolutely grabbing a woman's genitals without her consent is sexual assault. If it is not, then how do you define what sexual assault is?
