determination.

As I have said elsewhere, if he'd stuck to the standard jokes and skipped the mean-spirited shit, he'd have had something approaching a tie if not a win. Instead, he snatched defeat from the jaws of -- if not victory--a draw.

Once again, he departed the venue as a LOSER. 4 strikes and you're out, Conald!

I bet I know what he's thinking right now. He was actually talking to Hillary at the worst parts, seeming to try to give her some distraction.

His wide eyed expression was hilarious.

The guy on Trump's left was sweating profusely. Ok, ok it was probably the lights but you never know.

white dresses she wears) but for the Al Smith, she wore funeral black.

I think she understands that this idiot is trying to LOSE because he doesn't have enough support to win, so he wants to crash/burn and play the conspiracy card.

I'm in love.

Pretty much everyone else please put me out of my misery. Look at the other faces one by one. Especially the bottom pic. Most trying to look away from the train wreck. And thinking they will be in the same picture as that thing. And what did I think coming here tonite. Bloomberg looked like he would like to meet dipshit around back for a "friendly" chat.

A "You are shitting me look." And the folded hands is a defensive posture - it is the formal dinner version of folded arms - look at how many people there have folded hands, including Cardinal Dolan, who is also trying to turn his back on Donald.

But watching the whole speech you could tell she was thrilled. When others were looking away she was smiling and did a little clapping. I can't remember her name but she is a rw radio talk host or commentator? Something like that. Pretty much the same ideology as the trump groupies.

She was shocked some of the stuff he said but loved it.

Look at how many people have their hands folded in front of them. And the look on the lady in red behind Donald is priceless. Cardinal Dolan is actually trying to turn his back on Donald while Hillary is the only one who is actually willing to look at him - "Well Donald I didn't think even you would actually go there but am I surprised? - No."
