Thanks for joining us! The debate is over. The next - and last - is on October 19th in Nevada. Make sure to join us again for Impact Tap's ongoing election coverage.
Good night...and (in terms of dealing with the final stretch of this election cycle) good luck!
Trump compliments Clinton's drive. Plays well to the audience.
Last question: can you name a positive characteristic about your opponent?
Clinton plays it safe, compliments Trump's "able" children.
Trump....
Can't spot it. Clinton alludes to clean energy, talks of economic matters, but doesn't address the science behind dirty fossil fuels which is driving man-made climate change.
The only question relating to the environment is on how to defend energy jobs. Trump has a launching point to discuss "clean coal."
Clean coal does not exist. The economic plight of the coal belt need government action, but the environment simply does not need further resource extraction on this front.
Our children cannot afford it.
Trump talks about how the EPA is putting businesses out of business. Awaiting Clinton's response.
Trump makes a conservative play on a question on the Supreme Court, discussing how his appointees would follow in the tradition of Anton Scalia. Targets Clinton on Second Amendment. The moderators are pushing for movement forward.
A question on energy?....
Trump then goes on to repeat that "she has tremendous hatred," and that Clinton will be an extension of Obama's campaign, implying that the Obama administration is, too, a vehicle of hatred.
He then flails to deflect question on Miss Universe sex tape tweets, abruptly begins talking about Benghazi.
Concludes with "I'm not unproud" of using Twitter. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Clinton owns the line, saying that she apologized right after. Redirects question to discuss Trump's divisive rhetoric.
Proceeds to discuss how proud she is of the campaign she and Sanders ran.
When pressed on whether or not Trump agrees with his running mate Pence's stance on Syria: “He and I haven’t spoken and I disagree.”
Sounds like poor teamwork.
Note, tonight's debate commenced sans the customary handshake. Politico.com is calling this debate the "ugliest ever." Do you agree? Let us know on Twitter: @KeyElementsGrp @ImpactTap
