He's doing ten times better than last debate, and the moderators are being more aggressive against him. That's all that matters for the narrative.

How is he doing better in this debate he keeps trying to interrupt and the moderators just tell him to shut the gently caress up.

It doesn't matter, he will say he won, and people will jump on him and shout about the Trump Train at the debate just like they do everytime he opens his maw. He isn't winning, to us, people with brains. But to the literal retards who are voting for him and eating every word of his up, this is a landslide victory for him.

yeah but everyone else who matters doesn't give a poo poo. He looks like petulent baby, so while he might see a slight bump in the polls, he's not going to gain back all the ground he lost since debate 1.

I think you guys are forgetting in the minute-by-minute passion that Trump opened the debate with saying he'd jail his opponent if he was elected president.

That's how a dictator behaves.

And then he advocated for concentration camps.

He's toast. He's a literal Fascist. He revealed it on live television tonight. None of his soundbites will matter in the face of threatening to jail his opponent and open camps.
that will matter to the people that have been chanting 'LOCK HER UP' at every rally

No, people will see that as being a blowhard rear end in a top hat and a misogynist. The only group he's going to be seen winning with is White Men.

Man, Trump couldn't even wait for the moderator to hand the question over to him, he just started spurting immediately.

He doesn't give a poo poo about the moderators, the numerous times he's argued with them tonight and at the previous debate should show that. The fact that he isn't going to be actually CRUCIFIED for disrespecting the moderators is personally infuriating to me.
