Post-debate: stats and facts

hillary-clinton-talking-points-from-obamaA few points.

Roughly 84 million people watched the presidential debate on CNN, Monday night.

Lester Holt, NBC moderator, interrupted Donald Trump 41 times.

He interrupted Hillary Clinton 7 times.

Holt challenged Trump with follow-up questions 6 times.

Holt had not one challenge question for Hillary Clinton.

Listen to Howard Kurtz speak about the debate and the interruptions here.

Lester Holt was incorrect when he braced — sorry, “fact-checked” — Donald Trump on “stop and frisk,” insisting that the concept is unconstitutional. In fact, Lester Holt is wrong and Trump is correct. “Stop and frisk” is not unconstitutional, as correctly delineated by Rudy Giuliani. He is correct: “Terry v. Ohio.” A court case even all Baby Cops know.

Finally, arguments can be made on both sides that either candidate “won” the first debate. But what is incontrovertible is this: given the “target-rich environment” that Hillary Rodham Clinton’s history provides, in my opinion Donald Trump took little advantage of it.

On Sunday I theorized that the election was Hillary Clinton’s to lose.

After the Monday debate, I theorize this: it is Trump’s election to lose if he continues to not listen to his advisers.

P.S.

Anyone besides me think that Hillary Clinton appeared to be drugged in some fashion?

  1. Lester “the molester” was Hillary’s shill.
    A absolutely terrible moderator, or whatever they called him.
    He should lose his job for what he did!

    • Nah, he won’t lose his job. As far as he was concerned, HE was the epitome of fair and balanced.

      I guess we could have had Candy Crowley all over again, or perhaps Bill Ayers or Noam Chomsky.

      Gnome Chompski?
