As far as I know, which isn't a whole lot - "junk polls" - i.e. those by drudge report and poo poo, the ones that don't mean anything at all - have trump winning by a lot And betting markets on which is going to be president had Trump rise slightly during the debate, though not even close to making up for the crater that happened when the tapes were revealed.

Chelb posted:I'd like to see what the post-debate polls say first, tbqh. The media's spin on things and the public's perception of things aren't always in lockstep. Correct, but as we've repeatedly seen, "who won the debate" is a fairly meaningless question. Debates are context sensitive like all other political events, and the bar for this one was set very low for Trump. It was a referendum on his ability to inspire enough confidence in his own base to keep the calculus for the majority of the GOP leaning towards jumping ship being a bad play. I think he's done that - the GOP who unendorsed are going to come out the losers, he's successfully held his own party at gunpoint, set his terms, and his demands are met.

Even Trump loses disastrously and noone remembers him fondly, they'll remember the names of people he calls out, and they'll get hurt in primaries. That's the power of demagoguery in the GOP - anyone can pick it up and use it as a weapon, and it remains effective even if the one who pulled the trigger is long gone.

Like any collapsing market the Trump market was on meltdown five-alarm mode and him cratering at the debate was already priced in at least slightly, now that Trump barely held it together for 90 minutes, Clinton's merely at 77 cents.

If you make spooky noises with your mouth while talking about Russia, bring up the Cold War, or mention commies, then you're red-baiting. Merely bringing Russia up or correctly pointing out actions it has taken in violation of international law doesn't count.

Honest question: Do people think Trump flubbed his attack against Bill Clinton? It seemed like he was expecting it to be more of a thing and then he just kind of dropped it? Did Clinton do the right thing just not rising to his bait there?

Apparently within that poll, 63% think Trump did better than expected, which makes those numbers a bit funnier imo (and in line with this thread, i think)

Trump was all over the place. Any attack line he could get you saw him pull out even when it was in a bad or wrong spot. Look at ISIS or bengazhi, just pulled out of nowhere. Hillary just ignoring it was that the best thing she could have done because it made him come off as flailing even more then he was.

Yeah, the way she teed up her initial answer, tying the tapes to being more of the same of everything else he's said and what it says about who he is took a lot of wind out of the potential sails of "they're just words, not action like what Bill Clinton did". It wasn't an awful way to introduce Bill's past into the issue as a debate strategy but it lost its impact because Hillary had everyone thinking about more than just the tapes when Trump gave that response.
