She wasnt perfect but she didnt talk about dead golfers genitals or give people juvenile nicknames as the rapist/felon/fraud would have done.
She also came across as normal. Trump cant come across as normal.
There is no way Trump could have survived those same questions without coming across as completely unhinged.

(25,588 posts)She definitely didn't do herself any harm. She may have accomplished what she wanted.
The headline seems to be her unequivocal labeling of tsf as a fascist.

(13,835 posts)I doubt the audience members were pre-screened beforehand unlike that town hall Trump held on Fox last week. However, the organizations moderating these town halls aren't going to let some bizarre, off-topic question make it on air.

(2,892 posts)She's done enough of them. For now until election day She should only go out on the stump. Go on the offensive and stay on the offensive. The more She has to explain her policy positions is the more She's on the defensive and whatever explanation She gives is never good enough for the media anyway. So I don't see any value in them. She should go out on the campaign trail and remind people what a piece of garbage Trump is everyday.

(41,163 posts)I thought she did fine, but it wasnt particularly memorable. But I am not a fan of town halls anyway, so maybe that influenced my opinion.
I do think the CNN panel was insufferable and too critical. I turned them off.

(34,196 posts)I won't feel an ounce of sympathy for them if trump gets in. Abby Phillip, Dana Bash, Kaitlan, Jake Tapper.... surely they understand they're included as the enemy from within. Seriously, good luck with that.

(671 posts)One of the comments was when she was passionate about a topic she did great and I agree.
When she doesnt want to answer a question she talks around the question or moves to a different topic altogether. She needs to just be more honest and get to the point of the question. One of the things that I get frustrated about is the LONG drawn out answers ESPECIALLY when she never answers the question asked in the first place.
OMG am watching the 5 audience members and them talking about the school yard bullying. Its like they dont even realize the jeopardy Trump is to our country!! 🤦♀️
