Trump’s surrogates in the spin room were downbeat, and the candidate himself has already begun making excuses: “They gave me a defective mic,” he complained to reporters during a gaggle. “Did you notice that? My mic was defective within the room. I wonder, was that on purpose?” There was no clear problem with his microphone during the debate, Jose DelReal notes.

Trump was supposed to stop by the Nassau County Republican Committee’s watch party on his way home. He skipped it. Clinton, meanwhile, celebrated with hundreds of supporters in Westbury.

And Rudy Giuliani, a top Trump surrogate, even suggested that Trump should skip the next two debates unless he gets concessions. “If I were Donald Trump I wouldn’t participate in another debate unless I was promised that the journalist would act like a journalist and not an incorrect, ignorant fact checker,”

Trump was light on her. Next time he will push her buttons.

Timing is everything, just like the paid ads on tv. They had to destroy him at the first debate, and they failed. His job was not to attack her................YET.

Clay Travis: LeBron James' Fear Of Police Is Not Based In Fact
SPORTS | DAVID HOOKSTEAD
VIDEO
Snip:

“And you see these videos that continue to come out, it’s a scary, it’s a scary ass situation. That if my son calls me and said he’s been pulled over, that I’m not that confident that things are gonna go well and my son is gonna return home and my son just started the sixth grade,” the Cleveland Cavaliers star told the media. (RELATED: LeBron James Admits He’s Not Confident In Police Right Now)

Travis responded Tuesday morning on his “Outkick the Coverage” radio show. He said in part:

“That’s an unbelievable statement because it’s completely not supported by any kind of intelligent, rational thought,” Travis said. “I’m a stats guy, all right? I think that when feelings get involved most of the time the majority of us make really dumb decisions. ‘I’m not that confident that things are going to go well,’ LeBron James said and that his son might not come home if he gets pulled over.”

“And a lot of people are nodding right now. They’re saying, I agree with LeBron. That’s because they have no conception of what facts actually exist in this country,” he continued. “These are the statistics in 2016 directly in contravention to what LeBron James said. There have been 42 people, unarmed, shot and killed by police in this country, 42. Nineteen of them are white, 15 of them are black, five of them are Hispanic and three of them we don’t know the race of.

“So more white people have been shot and killed while being unarmed by the police than black people,” Travis said. “And white and Hispanic and unknown represent around 68 percent of all the people who’ve been unarmed, shot and killed. In this same year, 35 people have been struck and killed by lightning.”
