The American people

Most objective folks would likely say Trump. Bnet tends not to be an objective arbiter on this election. Or in general. Trump got flustered, he interrupted, he spouted falsehoods, he rambled - he was Trump. Clinton wasn't flawless. But she owned up to one mistake very bravely, and maintained her composure for the most part. One thing that I personally liked - but was objectively not great-looking - was when she responded to some of Trump's blundering with broad grins, knowing she could twist the knife. Not presidential, but certainly enjoyable.

Watch the debate without sound, you'll get your answer. Body language speaks volume. ;D

Every poll says trump won

If you get rid of all biases you/I have, and look from a staunchly, policy exclusive, and strategy standpoint, Hillary for the most part, destroyed Trump. He got her on trade, but everything else, he was acting was a complete fool, and never really gave an answer to any of the questions. All he did was default to ad homenims and crude comments.

The entirety of Trump's contribution to the debate sounded like a marketing campaign rather than a presidential one. You accomplish the servitude of people who don't put much forethought into their opinions by diminishing everything that goes against your campaign as a tragedy, and elevating everything for your campaign as the only solution. This is a very easily understood advertisement strategy that relies on urgent demand for a product to work. So, Trump consistently argues with language that assumes this country is doomed, and gets favored by many people. Analogously, Apple makes less new iPhones than their previous models and they sell out worldwide as soon as they release. The thought of not being able to ascertain this product drives people to support it. The thought that this is the only phone for them drives people to stay with the product. Apple has been playing this game for a very long time, and have been very successful in doing so. Now, talk to any android fanboy about how he feels about the iPhone, and he'll proceed to give you a list of issues and inadequacies. These are real issues, and the phone is truly inadequate, however, through the ingenuous marketing, the longtime Apple users will receive this information, not care about it, and still purchase or lust after the product. I dislike Hilary, but I'm much more apt to vote for someone who actually speaks on policies when asked about it, than someone who digs for emotional reaction from those who watch, without ever giving clear answers. Don't get me wrong, I like Trump as a person, I just don't like the fate of this election being deduced to how well blatantly obvious marketing tactics work on the American people.

I would like to share my opinion on this but as soon as I do some racist conservative is gonna try to deny every single syllable I say with short sighted "facts" and logical fallacies.

Lmao. I wonder if the moderator has some Hillary pom poms. I cannot stress enough how improper it is for the moderator to play fact checker. Not that I'm surprised.

I think the moderator. Couldn't make the crowd be quiet like he was supposed to lol

Let us not forget, ladies and gentlemen, that Hillary tried to ban violent video games

Trump won. He had much better arguments than Hillary did. And let's be honest here, Hillary is going to do what we've been doing for the last 30 years. Trump would improve our economy so much more. Everything else is kind of sketchy about both of them, but economically, Trump destroys Hillary. He'll actually improve our economy rather than not improving it or even making it worse. Will he make our relations better with other countries? No probably not. Will he make our economy way better? Yes.

I think they are equal. I despise both. Trump got some good burns in though. I'll admit that. This whole election is picking who you would rather burn down your house. My vote is neither. Gary Johnson 2016 lol

Hillary is a liar and Trump is a narracist.

The debate did not go well for Trump, kept repeating himself, wasn't using a powerful vocabulary. He burned HC a bit but that's as far as it went for him.

In the end we all lose.
