How can people not see that Hillary knows her stuff, and would be competent, even if you disagree with her.  While,, Trump knows nothing that would be helpful in being President?

Maybe some people find a simplistic analysis and simple solutions more comforting.  They don't want to face up to the fact that the issues of governing are complex and challenging and messy.

Three debates and not a single question about climate change/global warming.

Yup. And it was WALLACE who thought up the questions. So, no surprise.

[theredhead77]

I had to turn it off after "wait a minute". Did Wallace give Secretary Clinton a chance to respond or just give TantrumTrump the last word?

He actually said, "No, YOU are!" to Hillary at one point so yes, I think he is. When the Republicans send their children, they aren't sending their best behaved. They're sending their tantrum throwers. They're sending their nose pickers. Some, I assume, are good children. 

My husband swears he just saw a nose-pick.

Next time, he should try Make Up Forever which has an ultra HD formula just for occasions like this.  With 41 shades, I'm sure Sephora will find a perfect match just for him.  Oh, and he may try using some concealer that doesn't have him looking like a raccoon.

Please don't let there be a 'next time'. Let him go and start Trump TV.

Hillary keeps bringing it up, but he doesn't respond.

Biggest laugh of the night.  Thank you!

[GHScorpiosRule]

Wallace tells him no, he can't respond, and he ignores Wallace and blathers on anyway!

[LotusFlower]

Her preparation for this debate has really paid off.  She's been on-point and so articulate throughout.

[ChromaKelly]

Aleppo is a humanitarian disaster. But we shouldn't take in any refugees. OK then.

[madmaverick]

Over and over again, Hillary shows she so knows what she's talking about, has done so much homework, and that is reassuring and so important.  She's like the Hermione Granger of politics and I'll vote for a brain any day.

[InsertWordHere]

Disagreeing with Reagan? Bold move to get those republicans back, let's see if it works.

You are very welcome! I couldn't resist. 

[Kromm]

Oooooo-ba-maaaa care.

And again he's flat out making up fictional numbers about it. Not even using the same numbers.

Someone described her as Hermione.  Knowing that she was going to ace the test, but keep going to get every point she could.  I like that.

[backformore]

Can I respond to that? 

Wallace:  NO

Trump talks anyway

And calm.  Which I can't imagine with just a stage separating her from that orange idiotic sack of shit.

[Darian]

He couldn't help himself. "Such a nasty woman." How presidential of him. 

[starri]

"Assuming he can't figure out how to get out of it...."

Who was he talking about?  His aging mail order bride?

[callmebetty]

You know what husbands and wives disagree all the time. I could care less what Bill thinks he isn't running for president .

And Wallace lets him.

"She's such a nasty woman."  With a grimace and a head shake.  Yeah, SHE'S nasty.

I know, right?

Shut up, Wallace. Most of Orangutan going off the rails is YOUR FAULT. And I don't believe it's because he wanted to give him enough rope to hang himself.

Great closing argument.

It's really impressive.  How she can resist rolling her eyes is beyond me.

[InsertWordHere]

"Your husband disagrees with you." The husband you've spent the last two debates disparaging? Wouldn't it be a good thing if he disagrees then?

[car54]

Ha, Wallace springs closing statements and of course Hillary has one ready.
Trump is looking to see if Reince wrote anything on his hand that he can use.

[atomationage]

Hurry up and end.  I have to go to the bathroom.

OMG what a bratty interrupting idiot.

[LotusFlower]

#I'mWithHer!

[callmebetty]

Replace her with me and you have what he wants to do. Control everyone and everything. 

[backformore]

such a nasty woman????   WTF!!!

And they just let him.   We needed journalists to school him. 

[Darian]

Once again conflating African'-Americans/Latinos and inner cities.  

[mythoughtis]

What was that 'nasty woman' comment even about?  She's just trying to answer the entitlement question.  

Although I have never agreed with Social Security being an 'entitlement'.  We all pay into it for years, and expect a return on our investment

Edited October 20, 2016 by mythoughtis

[fastiller]

She actually asked for my vote. He totally did the opposite.

[LotusFlower]

His closing argument is about African-Americans and Hispanics?!

[GHScorpiosRule]

His closing argument? Talking about Hillary. Hey, if getting Hillary gives us four more years of Obama I say BRING IT ON!!!!!

[atomationage]

#I'mWithHer!

[Kromm]

And we end with...

[j5cochran]

She wraps up -- here is why you should vote for me.

He wraps up -- she lies and she's evil and ... and ... and ...

[car54]

Omg, I'm so glad that is over.

[Aquarius]

What is this crap about being shot when you're going to the store?  Where does he get this crap?

[maraleia]

And now one of our long national nightmares has ended with this final debate. Donnie looks so clueless while Hillary is as engaged as ever.

[madmaverick]

I want to smack Trump's smug face so much.  Too much having it in my face on the split screen for 1.5 hrs.   How Hillary's restrained herself all these months I don't know.

And none of the 'family handshake' at the end.

[theredhead77]

Now I have to wait until 11:30 to see Colbert's recap. Stupid Pacific time zone.

There's no reason to at this point.  The gloves have came off in the last debate; there's no need to fake the funk any longer.

I think he was referring to Dwanye Wade's cousin being shot in Chicago

Holy cow, I forgot they have to do the Al Smith dinner together tomorrow and try to be funny.

These are not funny people.

[atomationage]

20 days away.  Please be over soon.  Can I sleep for twenty days?
