Clinton re-iterates her call for a no-fly zone in Syria (does that apply to Russian planes? If so it's insane) and a "safe zone" which would require a large force of US ground troops to secure.

Overall nothing ground breaking at this debate. Trump looked like he was going to get absolutely railed over his tape at the beginning, but it didn't really go anywhere. Clinton has awful foreign policy so her weaknesses were really drawn out tonight. Her answer on the Goldman Sachs transcripts was terrible as well. I suppose she still "wins" just by virtue of not being a full blown fascist like Trump but I'm not confident that the US public will see it like that, especially after it's run through the US media spin machine.

Which part of her foreign policy answers did you disagree with and why?
No-fly zone and a "safe zone" in Syria. Both because of the risk of drawing the US into direct military conflict with Russia. The latter especially because forming a "safe zone" would require committing thousands of US ground troops

I mean she didn't really answer the question directly but if that's your takeaway from her answer then you have poor cognitive skills so hey
Uh, her answer was an incoherent mess that sloppily transitioned to red-baiting over Russia.

What this has to do with being a two faced politician? Nobody knows

Pointing out the Kremlin's sloppy attempts to influence US electoral politics isn't red-baiting because modern Russia is not a communist regime you hack.
This is what you're going to try to cling on to?
