Debate: Trump gives weak showing against Clinton

She clocked him. He unraveled over time - no stamina! He chugged water, interrupted Hillary Clinton constantly and couldn’t refrain from insulting Rosie O’Donnell again.

Trump referred to President Obama as “YOUR president” — not his. He refused to apologize for years of promoting the birther lie. His responses regarding racism and gun violence were abysmal. He promotes stop and frisk, which is biased and unconstitutional. Trump wouldn’t recognize the constitution if it bit him on the patootie.

He adamantly dodged the tax release issue. Clinton suggested he may have paid zero taxes. He didn’t deny it and claimed that was just smart. He also said it is simply great business that he profited off the housing crisis that devastated so many Americans.

Trump had no cogent reply when Clinton pointed out his economic policies are trickle-down theory once again.

He showed a shallow knowledge of matters, in sharp contrast to Clinton’s calm, astute grasp of national and world issues.

There is good reason why world leaders are aghast over the Republican nominee. There is good reason why Obama has called Clinton the most qualified presidential candidate ever.
