Discussion about the third--and thankfully final--presidential debate.
Only the bad drug lords? Is there a good drug lord?
Wall was mentioned!!! (curious that it took so long)
He keeps playing with the microphone...
Word of the evening is apparently "rip"
There's the water drinking.
The camera makes Trump look like he has some sort of censorship blur right above his forehead. This is the weirdest damn thing.

CHOKED! TWITTER WAR!
Hillary just turned it up to an 11 needling trump. He takes the bait immediately.

That's his hair.

Yeah. "Choked". I snorted.
He's losing his cool slowly, but it's steady.

His hair exists only partially in this dimension.
"Big league" is such a stupid phrase.
Clinton doubles down on abortion, refuses to concede. Which will be popular with her core base, but not the Evangelical wing, which is really shaky on supporting Trump but is torn because they're single-issue voters on abortion. Of course, I really, really doubt that anything will "happen automatically in my opinion because I am putting pro-life justices on the court". That's not how the Supreme Court works. Though it may sound convincing enough for him to gain their votes.
We're going to speed up the process, bigly.
Edit: oh, "big league"...
Obama is secretly deporting people, no one knows about it.
Except Trump!
Immigration:
Trump: They're coming into the country. Weapons are flowing into the country, people are being brutally killed by people coming in to the country illegally. We have no country if we have no borders. I was in New Hampshire and heroin is the biggest problem pouring across our southern border. We're getting the drugs they're getting the cash. We need the wall, I'm building the wall. I'm going to get all the druglords, all the bad people out. We're going to secure the border, then make a determination as to the rest.
Clinton: Met a young girl Carla that was worried her parents would be deported, she was a citizen, they aren't. I don't want to rip families apart. I don't want a deportation force active. We have 11 million people with 4 million American citizen children. To do this we'd need a massive presence going home to home, school to school, work place to work place. I don't think that's keeping with who we are as a nation and would tear the nation apart. I voted for strong borders. I believe in border security but want to put our resources where they are most needed: getting violent people out of this country. Introducing comprehensive immigration reform within 100 days with a pathway to citizenship.
Trump: I had a great meeting with the Mexican President, we're going to have much better deals with them. Clinton wanted the wall, she was in favor of it, but she can't accomplish anything so she couldn't do it.
Clinton: I have voted for border security, but we have different opinions on how the borders should look. ... Donald used undocumented workers to exploit them and do work cheaper.
Trump: Under Obama millions of people have been deported. That's what's happening, but they don't talk about it.
So he started pretty well, but right here at the end he is trying to simultaneously attack Obama and Clinton for not deporting enough people and wanting borders that are too weak, and for deporting too many people and making borders too strong. I don't think that's going to work.
The questions are extremely slanted against Hillary. Not just the topics, but sliding in false premises in the phrasing.

Sniiiiiiiiifffffffff
Moderator needs to work on how he phrases questions. He's not sounding impartial. At least try man.

Opening any question with wikileaks as a source is ridiculous.
Obama is simultaneously bringing in thousands and thousands of totally unvetted immigrants while deporting illegal immigrants big league.
The turnstile of America, folks.
They hired a better sound guy, but the sniffs are still there.
#You're the puppet!
You're the puppet!
Good grief, is he 5 years old?
She literally just explained how her policy isn't an open border and here's why... And he says it totally still is.
Also, did she just call him a puppet? Daaaaaaaamn.
"He wants a puppet..."
NO U
"YOU'RE THE PUPPET"
amazing
Wallace: You (Clinton) said you wanted open borders in this quote.
Clinton: That sentence was taken out of the larger context of talking about the need to have import and export relationships to do energy generation in ... ... ... policy stuff.
Trump: You heard it, she wants Open Borders. Open Borders.
...
Russia
...
Trump: You're the puppet. You're The Puppet!
Also less funny, is Trump pretty much saying we need to go back to cold war type nuclear stockpiling.
Yup. About 30 minutes in and trump has lost his shit.
Condemns the attacks? How can he condemn them when he encouraged them a few weeks ago?
Wallace has no control. They're talking at the same time.
