The people around him and in the random shots are upset and unhappy. Trump has now lost the New York elite.

Hillary was laughing - but I think she was laughing more at Trump digging himself a deeper hole than at anything he said.

My opinion without hearing a word of his speech.

He was saying (as I was trying to read it running along the bottom of the screen as there is no sound), that Hillary should apologize to the catholics of what she said on the wikileaks. Ugh......got no time for that man. Catholic or not...... ugh.
