Debate analysis

In the next few months the next president will be elected. This will determine the future of the county and our kids. Donald trump and Hillary Clinton, trump is aggressive and says what he means and doesn't cut it short. Trump is smart he chose a calm person to run with him so people get the best of both worlds. There are many ways you can choose or like one candidate mode. One being listen and watching the debate. There are 3-4 presidential debates, the candidates will have questions asked to them and they have to answer accordingly. The first debate was very hectic, a lot of fighting, back and fourth and interrupting. It was definetly fun to watch. The debate last night was a great debate. It was entertaining and fun to watch. Both candidates were attacking each other and they had  good points. There were very few points where it was boring. The moderators were a joke and super biased. They only let Clinton refute and talk longer, it was clear who's side they were on. They were definetly democratic and biased. I thought after watching it Hillary Clinton made more mistakes than trump. Clinton is more defensive and doesn't relax yhave responses to turmps comments, she tries to laugh it off but I don't think that works for her, she seems like she has no idea what so say back.  Trump was definitely the better at the end. He had better responses and had a lot more of comebacks. He was attacking her at the right moments and knew when to tone it down and apologize about his past or just let it go. Hillary clinton committed the fallacy of obfuscation more than ever. She evaded the question asked more than others and attempted to redirect the line of inquiry to talking points with which she was more comfortable. This helped trump win and she took the heat all night and had nothing to say. In march hillary Clinton spoke about her emails and how they were delayed. She said to the moterator "Colin Powell summed it up well, he was told that some of his emails from more than 10 years ago were going to be retroactively classified, and he called it an absurdity." Here she used appeal to authority, she is very manipulative and know one notices it really. She is very good at dodging questions and changing it around. I think even though she uses fallacies, sometimes it works. I think the appeal to authority maybe worked, some of the fallacies she uses don't work. When she doges a question or changes the topic, it's obvious you can tell that she doesn't like it or has no response. Overall, I thought that both candidates had a lot of good moments, and some not so good. Debates are hard but they definetly have figured it out and they now have a bigger picture and ideas of what they can do.  Debate 3 is soon we'll see how both candidates react and what they have to sAy.
