Let's stop looking at debates as "contests" to "win or lose"...what they show about the candidates
The cable/print/internet news is wasting time and diverting attention from the substance of the debate by talking about who "WON the debate" or that "Trump says he did'nt LOSE" the debate, or that x number of voters say who won.
The real important items from the debate, regardless of who "WON" or "LOST" are things like:
1. Trump revealed that he pays no taxes (smart),
2. Trump rooted for the housing crisis (just business),
3. Trump screws contractors (not happy with work),
4. Trump insults women
***MOST IMPORTANT***
Trump does not apologize or feel any remorse for hurting people.
