Trump Choked




...


So, after the first fifteen minutes, Trump didn't take advantage of his ability to box Clinton in as a defender of the status quo. Instead, she made her arguments. She isn't great at that--her little mini-speeches are dull and canned. But Trump never was able to get back on the offensive all night, and couldn't resist defending himself against every charge, often unconvincingly, rather than prosecuting the simple case against Hillary that she won't change anything and will keep the country on the wrong track. Clinton mostly seemed calm and collected and more than held her own for the rest of the evening.

...


I'm not positive Hillary actually won the debate. But I'm sure Trump lost it. He choked

Speaking of Marco Rubio: "He's drinking water, water, water,” Trump told ABC News in September. “I never saw anything like this with him, with the water.”
