Clinton's best moment in the debate

[BainsBane]

in my opinion, was her effort to reassure our allies. "Words matter . . . "

At that moment, she towered above him. He was acting like a petulant child, while she was not only presidential, but acting as our President.

Here it is:

[BainsBane]

2. Thanks.

3. "Words Matter..."

"I just want to say our word is good."

Thank you Bains. She was brilliant last night.

[Persondem]

4. I liked that moment as well. She thinks like a president ...

Trump thinks (and I use the word loosely) like a middle school kid who just happened to grow before his classmates and thinks he can be tough and get away with it.

5. They had an interview on NPR with undecided college students

and a couple of them said that Trump's schoolyard behavior turned them off. I hope that feeling was widespread. At least 86 million people watched last night.

6. I agree

It was brilliant. She was the adult in the room, reassuring our allies, while Trump pouted like a petulant child.

[Chico Man]

7. 100% agree

She looked to be delivering straight from the Oval Office at that moment.

[frazzled]

8. I thought her best moment was

Wooo ... oh-Kayyy! (knowing little eye-roll)

Summed up Trump's stream-of-consciousness blather in a nutshell. And in a very winning way.

9. Yes. That was a great moment

She blew right past him and stepped seamlessly into the role of national spokesperson assuring NATO and other allies that you can trust the US to honor its commitments.

He just stood there and glowered.

10. yes, words do matter.

and Donald Trump knows that. He carefully chooses his words for the destruction or ridicule of others. Has he said a nice thing about anybody or anything?
Even America is not "great".

[livingonearth]

11. Yes

liked that too.

[Akamai]

12. Very, very responsible, sobering, and a reminder of the danger of Trump. Well done!
