Mr. Trump, what good are clean coal and fracking for natural gas when our air and water will be too polluted to breathe and drink?

Energy companies are being driven so out of business that profits for the Big Six energy companies increased tenfold from 2007 to 2013.

Well, let me put it this way. o wo/ I have a crazy goddess of paradoxes that I pretend is in my head, and it was this easy for her to get distracted whenever Trump spoke. Mostly because, as usual, he was doing a lot of projecting. Also lots of repeating attacks over and over and over. XD I'm looking forward to the fact checking.

yeah there were multiple answers that I just full out "I have no idea what you are talking about" from Trump. Didn't have that problem at all with Hillary.
I personally feel a bit insulted by the "it's just locker room talk" Can I go on record as saying, as a straight male, I have never whatsoever said some of the things Trump has said with my male buddies?

Well..Trump fared better than last time. Definitely not enough to give him a boost in polls but enough to keep Republican support for the time being (at least until another debate or scandal happens).
Better than last time but I still an overall Clinton victory. I think Trump missed a huge opportunity to redress Martha Raddatz when she started answering rhetorical questions he was posing about Obama's current ISIS strategy. He should have come right back with something like, "I'm sorry, am I debating Secretary Clinton or am I debating you?!"
Happens a little after the 1 hour mark.
I really wish that the moderators had given him enough rope to hang himself. Instead they pushed on him to an extent that showed their clear bias and allowed him to come out looking like a victim rather than a fool.

I think I'm rather relieved that I didn't watch the debates this time around.
Then again, that was probably because I was busy having Thanksgiving...

The skulking and pacing didn't help him and could have avoided so easily. It just makes it clear that he doesn't like to prep/practice, cause that would be admitting he doesn't know how to do the thing already.
When not answering a question, Hillary did the smart thing. Sit down and occasionally write something down on her pad of paper.
Someone really needed to tell Donald to do the same thing. When it's not your turn, sit down and jot something on the paper. Even if it's just stick figure drawings, it doesn't matter. It'll make you look calm, composed and smart. Instead, the pacing and glaring made him look awkward and agitated.

could also be the desire to be on camera at all times.
Honestly the channel I watched the debate on mostly had split screen and was focused on the candidates. So it took me a long while to notice that.

Eh, probably because he'd never in a thousand years be granted coverage under it.

At one point, when the CNN camera was tracking him, his pacing made it look like he was turning his back on the audience. That is something that could so easily have been avoided.

Wow Trump actually answered that last question okay
Clinton has a lot of trouble expressing nuanced opinions in a relatable way. She respects his family, and the relationship he has with his children. At least, that's what I imagine she meant to express. Respecting "his children" is just awkward.
Trump did offer the more human answer, respecting her drive and determination. But, tactically, that undermines his narrative that she doesn't have the stamina to be President.
That question was an interesting microcosm of this contest.

Something that didn't happen tonight.
As you may know, the Trump campaign had brought several women who had accused Bill Clinton in the past of various degrees of sexual misconduct. The campaign is furious because their plan to have them go up and accuse Bill Clinton on these past incidents on national TV was derailed.
