Debate With The World-Class Clown, And The Robot

This debate took me back to high school.

Debate With The World-Class Clown, And The Robot
CBS News

In my humble opinion, no one won the debate.

I felt like I was taken back high school, and honestly, lost interest a few times during this so-called debate. But I persevered, and made the effort to watch most of it. My take on it, as follows.

The debate was nothing short of entertaining. I loved watching Hillary and Trump go at it. What was a bit disappointing though was their solution to some of the issues I find important. For one, our broken criminal system.

Robot chick on criminal system reform

Hillary, like always, begins with a wide smile, showing her "confidence". She then proceeds to state her solution to police brutality, in the most generic way possible: "We gotta get communities together to work on [criminal justice reform, with police] as a mutual goal. And we gotta get guns out of the hands of people who should not have them." And she goes on to say to tackle the plague, that is gun violence. One thing this chick, Clinton, fails to acknowledge is the fact that a lot of things should be a certain way, but they're not. She is only stating the obvious here, anyone can come up with, but fails to mention the ineffectiveness of simply stating what one will do, and how difficult it is to actually implement this, and take action. She fails to state how exactly she plans to take action.

Clown guy on criminal system reform

Trump, animated as usual, also fails to provide an effective plan of action. He takes the opportunity to mention the many endorsements he has from police academies. He goes one to mention his solution for the flaw in the criminal system is "law and order" and "stop and frisk" with no further elaboration. Hillary steps in, and takes advantage to imply that Donald Trump is a racist -- low blow if you ask me. She goes on to state the obvious: systemic racism in our criminal justice system, she stutters a bit, then continues saying some other generic shit.

Other highlights

Other "highlights" for me, in the debate, were when Donald Trump called out Hillary on her experience in politics for 30 years, and only now, according to him, is she coming up with solutions for our economy. You could see her face tighten, trying to hide her clear annoyance with the question. Later on, in the debate, he calls her out again for the thousands of emails, with classified information, she had erased. And she dodges the question. She gives another generic questions, and the debate goes on! At this point she is boiling with frustration, and does a terrible job at hiding it.

Hillary fights back, and stoops down to Donald's level, bringing to light the tax returns he hasn't disclosed to the public, and attempting to undermine his ability to conduct business, and negotiate. Low blow, Hillary, low blow.

All in all, the debate was a disappointment.

Who won for me? No one. But basing it off passion, I would say Trump won for me. He is too emotional, though, and reacts instead of responding. Clearly lacking self-awareness.

Basing it off composure, and self-control, Hillary won. But she seems too seasoned and trained for me, seemingly pretentious and disingenuous.

Honestly, we all lose when either wins. They both have something the other doesn't. The only way we would be ok is if they somehow morph, and become one. Then we'll have a decent president.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you.

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
