"I said very tough things to her and I think that everybody would agree that she deserves it and nobody feels sorry for her," he said about his comments that O'Donnell is "disgusting" and "a pig." Trump then inexplicably injected Rosie O'Donnell into the final moments of the debate. He loves beauty contests, supporting them and hanging around them. "And one of the worst things he said was about a woman in a beauty contest.
And someone who has said pregnancy is an inconvenience to employers," she said. "This is a man who has called women pigs, slobs and dogs. "As soon as he travels to 112 countries and negotiates a peace deal, a cease-fire, a release of dissidents, an opening of new opportunities in nations around the world or even spends 11 hours testifying in front of a congressional committee, he can talk to me about stamina," she said to cheers from an audience that was repeatedly admonished to stay quiet.Ĭlinton continued to dig the knife into Trump over his comments about women.
Perhaps the worst segment for Trump was when Holt pivoted to gender and asked the GOP nominee about his comments that Clinton doesn't have "a presidential look." Trump ignored the question and instead questioned Clinton's stamina for the job. The security aspect of cyber is very, very tough. He is so good with these computers, it's unbelievable. could be better at cybersecurity: "I have a son. And this was his response on how the U.S. Trump went on to suggest maybe it was not Russia that hacked the Democratic National Committee despite uniform consensus in the national security community that it was, in fact, Russia. He should have produced it a long time before. Trump's response: "I say nothing, because I was able to get him to produce it. Moderator Lester Holt gave Trump an opportunity to explain to Americans, especially African-Americans, why he built his political career around birtherism despite the complete debunking of that particular conspiracy theory. Trump had no answer for why he pushed birtherism for five years after President Barack Obama released his long-form birth certificate other than to double-down on the canard that Clinton somehow "started" the birther controversy even though she never raised it and immediately endorsed Obama after it became clear she couldn't win the nomination in 2008. Instead he offered this when pressed over an unpaid contractor: "Maybe he didn't do a good job and I was unsatisfied with his work." Undecided voters who dutifully pay their taxes every year probably didn't love that line.Ĭlinton also ripped Trump for stiffing contractors. Did Trump protest and say of course he pays taxes? No he didn't.
Clinton launched into a litany of things Trump could be hiding, including the fact that he has paid little or no federal taxes for years. Then the debate shifted to Trump's refusal to release his tax returns and things got ugly for the Republican nominee. And he attacked Janet Yellen and the Fed for "doing political" with its reluctance to raise interest rates. He accused Clinton of "fighting ISIS your entire adult life" something that's impossible given that ISIS formed after the Iraq invasion of 2003. Ask Rick Lazio how that went in his Senate campaign against Clinton. That's not something that will play especially well with college-educated suburban women who tend to loath "mansplainers" who won't let a woman talk. A clearly agitated Trump then began repeatedly interrupting Clinton and continued doing so roughly 50 times during the debate.
