According to a reporter who was keeping track, Trump interrupted Hillary fifty-five to times to her fifteen. It may have seemed more because she was trying to use her allotted time, and he kept interrupting her. Yet a so-called independent voter said he couldn't vote for either of them because they acted so "childish." This sort of childishness worked for Romney during the first debate in 2012. Polls claimed he won by 44%. In the ensuring debates Obama, who was criticized for looking disinterested, adopted Romney's style and salvaged the election. Trump must've been paying attention, but apparently you don't do that to a woman. A CNN poll had her winning 62% to 27%; yet Trump had one of his biggest days collecting donations from the basket of ignoramuses who seem to think a debate should be a slug fest. He looked tired toward the end. apparently his comments about her lack of stamina don't apply to him. We see the same kind of thing going on in polls on congressional approval. Republicans went home for three weeks rather than pass Zika funding. They still haven't passed it. The holdup involved a last minute poison pill, defunding Planned Parenthood. This time the democrats voted it down, upset by a lack of funding for Flint, Michigan, residents besieged by lead poisoning in their drinking water. Republicans claim they will pass that in a separate bill, but these people need help now, not when the Republicans feel like it. Flint residents don't vote Republican, so there's a slim chance that'll happen. Back to Congressional approval. Republicans, especially the Tea Party, has a non-negotiation stance. Obama had a deal with Boehner on the budget, but he couldn't get enough votes, thanks to the Tea-boners. Boehner himself seemed to think he was president of the United State when he decided not to bring the immigration bill passed by the senate up for a floor vote. Republicans were in the mood to pass it because they'd just been slaughtered by the Hispanic vote. The democratic congressmen have a slight edge, about 20-10, but the people who say they hate congress keep voting for the same do-nothings.
