Only an asshole would look at insults thrown in the middle of a mud slinging match and pretend they were policy positions.
Here's a clue. Stop slinging mud. It adds nothing to the debate and the guy slinging it looks like an asshole.
For example, Donald Trump made a big public deal of inviting Gennifer Flowers to the debate. What is the point of inviting Bill's ex-mistress to the debate. Bill Clinton had an affair with her 25 years ago, but Bill isn't running for President. The whole point was to embarass and humiliate Hillary Clinton. And it backfired, big time.
First off, Trump announced it before the debate, allowing Hillary time to prepare her response, and her response was Alicia Machada, whose abuse at the hands of Donald Trump was well documented, publically.
Then somebody released the Access Hollywood tape, in which Trump publically admits sexually assaulting women. It should be noted that this tape was owned by Access Hollywood and released by a pro-Clinton PAC, followed by the Howard Stern Show tape, which showed that Trump is every woman's worst nightmare.
Trump keeps repeating that "Nobody has more respect for women than I do". Has he never heard the expression "Actions speak louder than words"? I notice how frequently Trump calls women "fat". The man is morbidly obese, which he covers with slumpy looking suits.
Seriously - Donald Trump lumbered into every debate wearing an oversized black suit and a skinny red tie. Does he only own one tie? Does he think that the red is a nice contrast to his orange spray tan? Does he not button his jacket because to do so would make you notice his fat gut even more than you already do?
Trump lumbers around like an old baboon, sour faced and miserable, because he knows he's lost. He's blown it, and just in case he hasn't blown it thoroughly enough, he says something so assinine and offensive, that anyone who might has considered voting for him, is repelled, like he wouldn't have sexually assaulted a woman because she wasn't pretty enough.
With Trump, women are always judged, first and foremost, on their looks. Anyone who says nice things about him, regardless of how heinous a human being, is always welcome with Trump - like Putin, or David Duke. Anyone who disagrees with him, is vilified, reviled, insulted and abused.
A President needs a thick skin, a cool head, and a calm rational mind. A President is not a dictator, or a boss, he is a servant of the people, and their leader in crisis, not the other way around.
Conservatives keep look for a someone to "save the country". Look in the mirror. It starts with you. Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country. Your country needs infrastructure, it needs working class jobs, and it needs liveable wages.
What it doesn't need is pointless trade wars that it can't win. Look at Brexit. The Britons have shot themselves in the foot with their isolationist vote. The pound has lost value, jobs are fleeing the country, and voters have expressed buyers remorse as the Brexit leaders have walked back every promise they made to secure their votes.
Americans who are voting for Trump as a form of protesting the establishment should take a long look at that vote before doing something similar. GB has two years to disentangle itself with the European Union, and to negotiate trade deals with more than 70 separate countries. The clock is ticking.
I look forward to November 9th, and the continued whining of the Trumpbots.
