As one who does not support Trump I am trying my best to give an unbiased opinion on how the debate went. I don't care what the Trump supporters say or the Hillary supporters for that matter, both are expected to claim their candidate won.
But for me, did Trump draw me in a little closer, or did he push me further away? He clearly pushed me further away and convinced me even more that he has not changed his NY Liberal spots, nor that he was ready to sit behind the Presidents desk. He was not prepared for questiones that he knew was coming his way. His Tax Returns, Supply Side Economics, Tax cuts for the Rich, Gun violence. All of which he should have had a brilliant well rehearsed answer in his pocket. He admitted twice he didn't pay any federal tax? How is that a winning answer? And admitting a couple of times that he agrees with Hillary except on a few details.
I went into the debate hoping to see Hillary faint or cough or do something else that would end the Clinton legacy right there and then. What I saw was Hillary holding her ground, and Trump the one faltering. What I saw was a clear Hillary win.
In any case, the winner will be determined by which way the polls move over the next 10 days. Or will they remain the same?
