Hillary: "I want to ask Donald when he thinks America was great. [...] He was criticizing our govt for decades. Back in 1987 he took out a $1000 ad in the NYT during President Reagan's time. This is the way Donald thinks about himself, puts himself into the middle and says I only can fix it."

 

Wallace has hit Hillary with a number of FOX/Breitbart memes, but overall he has been very fair and held Trump to the fire like no other moderator. He's done the best job of the three debates.

 

Hillary: "I will raise taxes on the wealthy, assuming Donald doesn't figure out a way to get out of it."
Trump: "Such a nasty woman."

Well, this is gonna be a blowout election. And he had another very bad night.

 

Time for closing statements. Let's see what Donald comes up with.

 

Trump hides behind his lectern as Hillary comes down to thank Wallace and then into the audience.

 

The defining moments: Trump calling her "a nasty woman" and announcing he will "keep [America] in suspense" about not contesting the election. The audience gasped. It's over.

I haven't felt this way so strongly until tonight but man I was so proud of Hillary Clinton. Even with a couple of bumps on her end she kept hammering and outclassed him totally. She looked the most presidential I have seen her yet. Even after the debate and he left and she made her way through the crowd greeting people, she was awesome. I am so proud that a woman this qualified will most likely be our next president.  I wasn't sure I would feel this way again after President Obama was elected, but she was awesome.

Don Jr. was embarrassing himself in front of the press pool, rambling a mile a minute. He and Reince Priebus (the last GOP man standing?) are trying to quantify Trump's ruinous comments, claiming "only if there is real evidence" they'll contest the election.

 

Oh God, it's Rudy and Kellyanne! They both insist that he will accept the results unless there is evidence.

As much as Trump tried to keep himself in check, there were several times where he reverted back to nature and became unhinged. The Putin puppet talk, the Bad Hombres garble are two examples. He really sounds as if he is stanning Putin, which is disturbing but far from the most disturbing he's said tonight.

      Doctor Who

      They're neither great nor terrible AFAIK, but it is more a question of the streaming numbers in this day and age vs. actual TV airings. The Chibnall era reminded me much more of the crisis years, but I do think it's a very real possibility now as well due to the streaming bubble collapse affecting the show and its prospects.

      ANYTHING to get her off the screen..she COULD have been interesting if she and Van had a few face offs..(there was a mild one of her going back to work...but I wanted something meatier "Bitch, I am Vanessa Chamberlain and I don't take advice from someone who followed the..career path you did!" I did like Alex's outright disdain for her.

      Doctor Who

      Thanks @Vee for the commentary.    I haven’t even watched this season yet after  I couldn’t get past the couple episodes last season…like it was too Disneyified for my taste, although I did think it was a least better than the Chibnall era (but so is a lot of things). I’ll probably go back and binge it now. Hoping this season ends on a high note. I did read the ratings are terrible. As it stands I’m beginning to feel like what long time DW fans felt with S26 in 1989.

      I also never understood Alex's friendship with Sonni or keeping the secret of Marah's paternity.  Not exactly heartbroken about Ms. Sally being ushered to the Hereafter.

        I'm sorry but I'm a glutton for punishment. Would love to see this woman OWNING the canvas. Telling off Leslie who tells her she's the head b!tch.

      And in case anyone is confused; Rusty was hired by HB to work undercover and infiltrate some gang sabotaging Lewis.

      Looking back...Primetime Ratings from the 80's

      By kalbir · Posted

      40 years ago this month, the best and most pivotal television season of the 1980s came to an end. Here’s how the rookie breakout and the four soaps wrapped up the season. The Cosby Show – Cliff’s Birthday (season 1 finale, May 9): Clair and the children surprise Cliff by planning a birthday celebration around a Lena Horne concert. Dallas – Deliverance (May 10): Bobby seeks evidence to free Jenna. The Ewings go confidently to court. Mitch asks Lucy to move in. J.R. wants Sue Ellen hospitalized. Dynasty - The Heiress (May 8): Krystle learns Daniel is dead. King Galen courts Alexis. Amanda sees Michael with Elena. Sammy Jo learns Krystle will handle her money and is furious about the decision. Knots Landing – One Day in a Row (May 9): Ben aids in Karen's search for Val's babies. Mack replies to the governor's offer. Ruth uses Abby to break up Laura and Greg. Falcon Crest – Cold Comfort (May 10): Fugitive Lance desperately searches for Lorraine, who lies comatose in a San Francisco hospital. Robin returns with startling news.   Dallas – Swan Song (season 8 finale, May 17): Jenna's release from jail depresses Pam. Sue Ellen thinks she saw Dusty. Donna tells Ray about her pregnancy. Cliff consults an attorney about an annulment. Lucy and Mitch remarry. Sudden tragedy strikes Bobby. Dynasty – Royal Wedding (season 5 finale, May 15): Sammy Jo makes her roommate look like Krystle. Elena reassures Amanda about her upcoming marriage. Terrorists come for the royal wedding of Prince Michael and Amanda. Falcon Crest – Confessions (May 17): Melissa confesses to framing Lance. Pamela gives Maggie proof that Richard bribed Judge Holder. Connie reveals her love for Chase. Knots Landing – Vulnerable (May 16): Ruth wants Abby to break up Greg and Laura. Karen makes a breakthrough in her hunt for Val's babies. Joshua hampers Val's recovery. Knots Landing – The Long and Winding Road (season 6 finale, May 23): Abby fears being linked to the disappearance of Val's babies. Laura leaves Greg. The Fishers are determined to keep Val's babies. Falcon Crest – The Avenging Angel (season 4 finale, May 24): Lorraine dies. Angela throws a victory party. Cassandra's mother arrives. An explosion rips through Richard's house. 1984/85 was the season the primetime soaps pulled out all the stops to out-do each other and everything culminated in the spring. May 1985 was the zenith of primetime soaps as a genre.
