I wish they would turn off the mike for the time the other candidate is speaking. Trump did himself little good with his behavior. I think his arguments were sound.....but his attitude and rudeness got in the way. It's who he is.....and sometimes it's not pretty.

At those debates he called Rosie O’Donnell a fat pig and everyone loved it.

In 2016 when Trump got the nod he did the same shit and I thought he was trying to lose the election. edit (Mo and I must have been typing at the same time)

I voted for Trump the first time because I could NOT vote for Hillary and I knew voting for a Libertarian was throwing my vote away. A lot of middle of the road people don't hate Joe Biden

We all see what we want to see. People have hated Hillary Clinton since Slick Willy got elected. Biden was pretty much unobtrusive and unknown outside of his district until Obama tabbed him for VP.

I think there is a difference. There was nothing to like about Hillary, her history was bad particularly the way she behaved with her emails and her attitude that laws did not apply to her. People did not like who she was/is. Hillary was disliked like Jane Fonda, there was not going to be any forgiving Jane or Hillary. Joe is much more likeable similar in some ways to Bill Clinton. You know Joe can be bumbling but I don't sense there is a dislike of him like there was for Hillary. That means for those independents particularly women character makes a difference and Trump needs to show his policies reflect that he cares about people. Hard to understand why he was not better prepared with some scripted messaging. In my opinion a huge missed opportunity.

Never count Trump out! He’s been on the ropes many times, and ends up winning!

Never count Trump out! He’s been on the ropes many times, and ends up winning! I'm not counting him out, I just wish he'd do more to not shoot himself in the foot. Picking up a bunch of latino votes in the next 5 weeks could push him over the edge. I still can't figure out why both parties worry so much about the black vote and largely ignore latinos. Republicans are doing themselves a disservice by doing so IMO. Latinos are overwhelmingly Catholic (though a bit different Catholicism I guess) and they should be voting red in blocks.

Is there enough Latino votes to count for much? I think I read somewhere that less than 50% of them vote. What percentage of the total population do they compromise? Maybe not a lot of reward for the effort. I don't know...

I don't deny what your saying at all, because it is true. I just can't fathom being a person that is torn between the 2. I'm sure all here or most here totally understand what I mean, I knew I was voting for Trump within the first week he announced he would be running for President in 2016.
I can't imagine going through this life, but this year specifically and not KNOWING what you believe.
I think there are an awful lot of people in the middle who have no interest in socialism, but who also cannot stand Trump. These are those people.

I don’t remember his source but Limbaugh read something today stating Latinos think Trump won. Rush guessed that they like a fighter.

One of the White House talking heads posted last night that the Telemundo Network had Trump winning 63% to 37%. That is likely where that came from. That said, Trump needs to take it down about 20% to keep from alienating any more voters who are on the fence. He needs all the votes he can get. I personally want him to win in a landslide, so the Dems can eat shit and die.
