17. Well, independents definitely learned something about Trump, and it was not good.

As the article at the link notes, that same poll showed that 22% of independents had a worse opinion of Trump after the debate, as opposed to only 9% who had a better opinion of Trump. That is more than a 2 to 1 margin. Not good.
