I was on an airplane during the debate and missed it. I suppose I could watch it on YouTube, but that's kind of like watching the Super Bowl the day after--not much fun. I watched the Today show this morning hoping to hear about the debate outcome. Instead I was treated to fifteen minutes of news and commentary about Trump's refusal to categorically support the results of the election. They could have covered that in five minutes, or even one minute, and told me something about the other questions. Instead they brought in every commentator they could find to criticize Trump, even the venerable Tom Brokaw who we learn after his retirement that he too is a liberal.
This writer argues that Trump won the third debate, but that it won't make a difference except in the lesser election battles.
Update: The real winner of the third debate was Chris Wallace, the first moderator to ask substantive questions. Even reliably liberal media like the New York Times and the Washington Post complimented his performance.
Update 2: Is Trump’s refusal to say he’d accept the results of the election the only thing that happened on earth today?
