Many people are saying that Trump lost the debate. Big league, as they say.

Pre debate: he's going to be better!
During debate: she's kicking his ass.
After debate: will he even do the next two?— Nicholas Thompson (@nxthompson) September 27, 2016
CNN ORC poll: 62 percent say Clinton won debate. 100 million plus watched this debate. MOE 4 points. Now knock on doors and take Congress.

If you didn’t watch last night, rest assured: Hillary did a fine job, and Donald Trump… repeated all his Greatest Hits from the Rallies bits. He didn’t lose a single member of his devoted “base”, but he sniffled, lied, talked over the woman on the stage, claimed that America is a job-leaking hellhole which every filthy brown terrorist can’t wait to invade, lied some more, contradicted the African-American moderator (while lying), sniffled, called President Obama “your president”, took credit for “settling” the birtherism issue, and by every metric and “optic” looked like a coked-up, aging con artist in a bad suit rambling about “the nuclear” and “the cyber”. Vox has a full transcript up, and I’m guessing one of the other front-pagers will be able to post a video later this morning.
But this is the Big Fat Gaffe that will probably attract the most attention…
Clinton speculating why Trump won't release tax returns: maybe he's not as rich and/or charitable as he says, maybe hasn't paid fed taxes…

Clinton says Trump doesn't pay federal income tax. Trump responds: "That makes me smart."

Did Trump just answer his charge that he didn't pay income taxes by saying "it would be squandered anyway?"
