The First Boring Debate

Like many AmericanÃÂÃÂs, I eagerly awaited the first presidential debate, hoping that Donald Trump would pulverize Hillary Clinton. Within the first 30 minutes it was obvious that was not going to happen. The old Trump was back at the podium the one without the teleprompter. Compared to Hillary, Trump did not seem to do his ÃÂÃÂhomework and his ÃÂÃÂperformance suffered as a result. Opportunities to annihilate her were numerous, yet he failed to take advantage of the Clinton treasure trove of misdeeds and doings. He seemed annoyed and irritated and his constant sniffling did not help to improve his hoped for presidential image. Clinton on the other hand was well prepared, too well prepared. A Broadway play couldnÃÂt have produced a better actress. Each question answered sounded as if she had repeated it over and over again. Even her tone of voice and facial expressions remained the same throughout the debate with the exception of her occasional snarky sneers at Trump. Do you agree or disagree?
