:00:14. > :00:18.The White House hopefuls clashed over jobs, tax and race relations
:00:19. > :00:21.in what could be the most watched debate in TV history,
:00:22. > :00:26.with just under 100 million viewers.
:00:27. > :00:30.His cavalier attitude about nuclear weapons is so deeply troubling,
:00:31. > :00:34.so a man who can be provoked by a tweet should not have his
:00:35. > :00:44.against my lawyer's wishes when she releases her 33,000 emails
:00:45. > :00:51.And the attacks turned personal as Donald Trump accused his rival
:00:52. > :00:56.of not being able to handle the demands of presidency.
:00:57. > :00:59.You have so many different things you have to be able to do
:01:00. > :01:03.and I don't belive that Hillary has the stamina.
:01:04. > :01:06.He tried to to switch from looks to stamina,
:01:07. > :01:26.but this is a man who has called women pigs, slobs and dogs.
:01:27. > :01:29.Good morning and welcome to BBC News.
:01:30. > :01:36.Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have clashed over jobs, trade,
:01:37. > :01:40.taxes, race relations and security in their first of three televised
:01:41. > :01:43.debates of the US presidential campaign.
:01:44. > :01:47.The showdown, broadcast from New York, lasted 90 minutes
:01:48. > :01:51.and could be the the most watched debate in TV history,
:01:52. > :01:56.Each candidate tried hard to discredit the other.
:01:57. > :02:00.Mr Trump said only he had the right temperament to be president.
:02:01. > :02:04.Mrs Clinton said her rival was too easily provoked to serve
:02:05. > :02:09.Over the next hour we'll bring you extended highlights
:02:10. > :02:18.of the debate, which was hosted by the US TV Network NBC's Lester Holt.
:02:19. > :02:25.Beginning with you, Secretary Clinton, why are you a better choice
:02:26. > :02:30.than your opponent to create the kind of jobs that will put more
:02:31. > :02:33.money into the pockets of American workers? The central question in
:02:34. > :02:38.this election is really what kind of country we want to be and what kind
:02:39. > :02:41.of future we will build together. Today is my granddaughter's second
:02:42. > :02:45.birthday so I think about this a lot. First we have to build an
:02:46. > :02:51.economy that works for everyone, not just those at the top. That means we
:02:52. > :02:56.need new good jobs with rising incomes. I want us to invest in you,
:02:57. > :03:02.I want us to invest in your future. That means jobs in infrastructure,
:03:03. > :03:05.advanced Manufacturing, innovation and technology, clean renewable
:03:06. > :03:09.energy and small business because most of the new jobs will come from
:03:10. > :03:13.small business. We also have to make the economy fairer. That starts with
:03:14. > :03:21.raising the national minimum wage and also guarantee finally equal pay
:03:22. > :03:25.for women's work. I also want to see more companies to profit-sharing. If
:03:26. > :03:30.you help create profits, you should be able to share in them, not just
:03:31. > :03:34.the executives at the top. I want us to do more to support people who are
:03:35. > :03:39.struggling to balance family and work. I have heard from so many of
:03:40. > :03:44.you about the difficult choices you face and the stresses that you under
:03:45. > :03:52.cover so let's have made family leave, and sick days, affordable
:03:53. > :03:57.child care and debt free college, by having the wealthy pay their fair
:03:58. > :04:04.share and close corporate loopholes. Finally, we, tonight, are on the
:04:05. > :04:08.stage together, Donald Trump and I. Donald, it is good to be with you.
:04:09. > :04:12.We are going to have a debate where we are talking about the important
:04:13. > :04:17.issues facing our country. You have to judge us, who can shoulder the
:04:18. > :04:22.immense awesome responsibility of the presidency. Who can put into
:04:23. > :04:25.action plans that will make your life better. I hope that I will be
:04:26. > :04:32.able to earn your vote on November eight. Secretary Clinton, thank you,
:04:33. > :04:36.Mr Trump, the same question, putting more money into the pockets of
:04:37. > :04:41.American workers. Our jobs are fleeing the country. They are going
:04:42. > :04:45.to Mexico, they are going to many other countries. You look at what
:04:46. > :04:49.China is doing to our country in terms of making our product, they
:04:50. > :04:52.are devaluing their currency and there's nobody in our government to
:04:53. > :04:56.fight them. And we have a very good fight and we have a winning fight.
:04:57. > :05:01.Because they are using our country as a piggy bank to rebuild China and
:05:02. > :05:05.many other countries are doing the same thing. So we are losing our
:05:06. > :05:10.good jobs, so many of them. When you look at what is happening in Mexico,
:05:11. > :05:13.a friend of mine who build plants says they are building some of the
:05:14. > :05:17.biggest plants anywhere in the world, some of the most
:05:18. > :05:22.sophisticated, some of the best plants. With the United States, as
:05:23. > :05:28.he said, not so much. Ford is leaving. You see this, the small car
:05:29. > :05:31.division, leaving. Thousands of jobs leading Michigan, leaving Ohio. They
:05:32. > :05:35.are all leaving and we can't allow it to happen any more. As far as
:05:36. > :05:40.childcare is concerned, and 70 other things, I think Hillary and I agree
:05:41. > :05:43.on that, we, B disagree a little bit as two numbers and amounts and what
:05:44. > :05:49.we're going to do but perhaps it will talk about that later. But we
:05:50. > :05:55.have to do stop our jobs from being stolen from us, we have to stop our
:05:56. > :05:59.companies from leaving the United States and with it, firing all of
:06:00. > :06:05.their people. All you have to do is take a look at the air conditioning
:06:06. > :06:09.company in Indianapolis, they fired 1400 people and they are going to
:06:10. > :06:16.Mexico. Hundreds of companies are doing this. We cannot let it have.
:06:17. > :06:25.Under my plan, will be reducing taxes, come on, from 35% to 15% for
:06:26. > :06:29.companies, but will be a job creator like we haven't seen since Ronald
:06:30. > :06:35.Reagan. It will be a beta full thing to watch. Companies will build, they
:06:36. > :06:40.will expand, new companies will start and I look very much forward
:06:41. > :06:44.to doing it. We have two renegotiate our trade deals and we have to stop
:06:45. > :06:49.these companies from stealing our companies and our jobs. I think that
:06:50. > :06:54.trade is an important issue. We are 5% of the world's population, we
:06:55. > :07:00.have to trade with the other 95%. And we need to have smart, fair
:07:01. > :07:04.trade deals. We also need to have a tax system that rewards work, and
:07:05. > :07:08.not just financial transactions. And the kind of plan that Donald has put
:07:09. > :07:13.forward would be trickle down economics all over again. In fact it
:07:14. > :07:17.would be the most extreme version, the biggest tax cuts for the top
:07:18. > :07:22.percent of the people in this country, than we have ever had. I
:07:23. > :07:27.call it trumped up trickle-down because that is exactly what it will
:07:28. > :07:33.be. That is not how we grow the economy. We just have a different
:07:34. > :07:36.view about what is best for growing the economy, how we make investments
:07:37. > :07:39.that will produce jobs and rising incomes. I think we come at it from
:07:40. > :07:46.different perspectives. I understand that. Donald was very fortunate in
:07:47. > :07:50.his life and that's all to his benefit. He started his business
:07:51. > :07:54.with $40 million borrowed from his father. And he really believes that
:07:55. > :07:59.the more you help wealthy people, the better off we will be and
:08:00. > :08:03.everything will work out from there, I don't buy that. I have a different
:08:04. > :08:07.experience. My father was a small businessman, he worked hard, you
:08:08. > :08:11.printed fabrics on long tables where he pulled out those fabrics and went
:08:12. > :08:17.down with a silk screen and dumped the pain in an cook the sponge and
:08:18. > :08:22.kept going. -- paint in and took the sponge and kept going. The more we
:08:23. > :08:29.can do for the middle class, the more we can invest in you, your
:08:30. > :08:32.future, the better we will be and the better we will grow. You have
:08:33. > :08:36.talked about creating 25 million jobs and you have promised to bring
:08:37. > :08:39.back millions of jobs from Americans, how are you going to
:08:40. > :08:44.bring back the industry that have left this country for cheaper labour
:08:45. > :08:48.overseas? How specifically are you going to tell American manufacturers
:08:49. > :08:52.that they have to come back? For one thing, before we start on that, my
:08:53. > :08:57.father gave me a small loan in 1975 and I built it into a company which
:08:58. > :09:00.is worth many billions of dollars with some of the greatest asset in
:09:01. > :09:04.the world, I say that only because that is the kind of thinking our
:09:05. > :09:09.country needs, our country is in deep trouble. We do not know what we
:09:10. > :09:12.are doing as it comes to devalue, and all of these countries all over
:09:13. > :09:17.the world, especially China are the best ever at it. What they are doing
:09:18. > :09:20.to us is a very sad thing. So we have to do that, we have to
:09:21. > :09:23.renegotiate our trade deals. They are taking our jobs, giving
:09:24. > :09:28.incentives, doing things that frankly we don't do. Let me give you
:09:29. > :09:33.the example of Mexico. They have a tax, we have a different system.
:09:34. > :09:39.When we sell into Mexico, there is a tax, when they sell, automatic, 16%.
:09:40. > :09:46.When they sell to us, there is no tax. It is a defective agreement. It
:09:47. > :09:49.has been detected for a long time but the politicians have not done
:09:50. > :09:54.anything about it. With all fairness the secretary Clinton, yes, if K?
:09:55. > :09:59.Good. I wanted to be very happy. It is very important to me. In all
:10:00. > :10:03.fairness to Secretary Clinton, 20 started talking about this, it was
:10:04. > :10:07.very recently, she has been doing this for 30 years, why hasn't she
:10:08. > :10:13.made the agreement is better? The agreement is defective because of
:10:14. > :10:18.the thick -- the tax and other reasons. Let me interrupt you.
:10:19. > :10:23.Secretary Clinton should have been doing this years, they should have
:10:24. > :10:26.been doing this the years, not now because we have created a movement.
:10:27. > :10:32.What has happened to our jobs and our country and our economy
:10:33. > :10:39.generally is, we don't $20 trillion. -- we owe. Back to the question, how
:10:40. > :10:43.do you specifically bring back jobs? American manufacturers, how do you
:10:44. > :10:46.make them bring the jobs back? The first thing you do is do not let the
:10:47. > :10:49.jobs leave. The companies are leaving. There are thousands of
:10:50. > :10:54.them, they are leaving in bigger numbers than ever. And what you do
:10:55. > :10:58.is say, fine, you want to go to Mexico or some other country, good
:10:59. > :11:01.luck, we wish you luck. But if you think you are going to make your air
:11:02. > :11:05.conditioners or cars or cookies or whatever you are going to make, and
:11:06. > :11:09.bring them into our country without a tax, you are wrong. Once you say
:11:10. > :11:13.you're going to have to tax them coming in, and politicians never do
:11:14. > :11:15.this, because they have special interests and they want those
:11:16. > :11:24.companies to leave, because in many cases, they only -- own the company.
:11:25. > :11:33.So we have to stop them from leaving and that is a big factor. Let's stop
:11:34. > :11:42.for a second and remember where we were eight years ago.
:11:43. > :11:44.We had the worst financial crisis, the Great Recession,
:11:45. > :11:48.That was in large part because of tax policies that slashed
:11:49. > :11:50.taxes on the wealthy, failed to invest in the middle
:11:51. > :11:53.class, took their eyes off of Wall Street, and created
:11:54. > :12:00.In fact, Donald was one of the people who rooted
:12:01. > :12:04.He said, back in 2006, "Gee, I hope it does collapse,
:12:05. > :12:07.because then I can go in and buy some and make some money."
:12:08. > :12:23.Nine million people -- nine million people lost their jobs.
:12:24. > :12:25.Five million people lost their homes.
:12:26. > :12:27.And $13 trillion in family wealth was wiped out.
:12:28. > :12:29.Now, we have come back from that abyss.
:12:30. > :12:33.So we're now on the precipice of having a potentially
:12:34. > :12:35.much better economy, but the last thing we need to do
:12:36. > :13:08.is to go back to the policies that failed us in the first place.
:13:09. > :13:10.Independent experts have looked at what I've proposed and looked
:13:11. > :13:12.at what Donald's proposed, and basically they've said this,
:13:13. > :13:15.that if his tax plan, which would blow up the debt by over
:13:16. > :13:17.$5 trillion and would in some instances disadvantage middle-class
:13:18. > :13:20.families compared to the wealthy, were to go into effect,
:13:21. > :13:22.we would lose 3.5 million jobs and maybe have another recession.
:13:23. > :13:25.They've looked at my plans and they've said, OK,
:13:26. > :13:28.if we can do this, and I intend to get it done, we will have
:13:29. > :13:31.ten million more new jobs, because we will be making
:13:32. > :13:32.investments where we can grow the economy.
:13:33. > :13:36.Some country is going to be the clean- energy superpower
:13:37. > :13:39.Donald thinks that climate change is a hoax
:13:40. > :13:58.I have tried to be very specific about what we can and should do and
:13:59. > :14:01.I am determined that we are going to get the economy really moving again.
:14:02. > :14:05.Building on the progress we have made over the last eight years but
:14:06. > :14:10.never going back to what got us into trouble in the first place. User
:14:11. > :14:13.anywhere you want, Secretary Clinton, and you will see
:14:14. > :14:19.devastation where manufacturing is down 30, 40, 50%. It is the worst
:14:20. > :14:25.trade deal ever signed anywhere, certainly in this country. Now you
:14:26. > :14:28.want to improve transpacific partnership will stop you were
:14:29. > :14:31.totally in favour of it, then you had me say how bad it is, and you
:14:32. > :14:37.say, I cannot win the debate. You know that if you win it will improve
:14:38. > :14:47.it, and that will almost be as bad as NAFTA. That is not accurate. I
:14:48. > :14:52.was against it when it was... You called it the gold standard of trade
:14:53. > :14:56.deals. He said it was the finest deal you've ever seen. And then you
:14:57. > :15:00.had what I said about it and all of a sudden you were against it. I know
:15:01. > :15:05.you live in your own reality, but that is not the facts. I did say I
:15:06. > :15:10.hoped it would be a good deal, but when it was negotiated... Not. When
:15:11. > :15:19.it was negotiated I concluded it was. Is the President Obama fault?
:15:20. > :15:27.Look... Is a President Obama's fault? There are different views
:15:28. > :15:30.about what is good for our country, our leadership in the world. I think
:15:31. > :15:34.it is important to look at what we need to do to get the economy again.
:15:35. > :15:40.That is why I said, new jobs with rising incomes, investments, not in
:15:41. > :15:47.what -- more tax cuts which would add $5 trillion... But you have no
:15:48. > :15:50.plan. You have no plan. I do, I have written a book about it, you can
:15:51. > :15:56.pick it up tomorrow at a book store or at an airport near you. It is
:15:57. > :16:04.because I see this, we need to have strong growth, said gross, sustained
:16:05. > :16:07.growth. -- strong growth. You are going to approve one of the biggest
:16:08. > :16:10.tax raises in history, you're going to drive business ad, radiation
:16:11. > :16:18.oceans are a disaster and by the way, my tax cut is the biggest since
:16:19. > :16:22.Ronald Reagan. I am very proud, it will create jobs. But regulations,
:16:23. > :16:27.you are going to regulate these businesses out of existence. I have
:16:28. > :16:32.been all over and when I go around, despite the tax cut, the things that
:16:33. > :16:38.businesses and people like the most is the fact that I am cutting
:16:39. > :16:41.regulation. You have regulations on top of regulations and new companies
:16:42. > :16:45.cannot form and old companies are going out of business and you want
:16:46. > :16:52.to increase regulation and make them even worse. I am going to cut
:16:53. > :16:56.regulations. I'm going to cut taxes, big league, do a thing to raise
:16:57. > :17:02.taxes, and a story. We are going to move on. That cannot be left to
:17:03. > :17:10.stand. I kind of assumed there would be a lot of these charges and
:17:11. > :17:14.claims. Facts. We have taken the home page of my website and turned
:17:15. > :17:18.it into a fact checker. So if you want to see in real time what the
:17:19. > :17:26.facts are, please go and take a look. And take a look at mine also.
:17:27. > :17:34.We will not add a penny to the debt and your plans would add $5
:17:35. > :17:37.trillion. Look at your website, no different than this, go to her
:17:38. > :17:41.website, she tells you how to fight I sit on the website, I do not in
:17:42. > :17:46.general Douglas MacArthur would like that. -- Isis. At least I have a
:17:47. > :17:52.plan to fight Isis. You are telling me anything everything you want to
:17:53. > :18:00.do. We are not. Their wonder you have been fighting Isis your entire
:18:01. > :18:06.adult life. -- no wonder. Go to the, please, fact checkers, go to work!
:18:07. > :18:14.We are still on the issue of achieving prosperity. I want to talk
:18:15. > :18:16.about taxes. The fundamental difference is concerning the
:18:17. > :18:20.wealthy, Secretary Clinton is calling for attacks increase for the
:18:21. > :18:26.wealthy, and Mr Trump is calling for tax cuts, defend that. I am really
:18:27. > :18:32.calling for major jobs because the wealthy will create Canada's jobs.
:18:33. > :18:36.They will expand the company, they will do a gym in this job on getting
:18:37. > :18:41.rid of the carried interest provision, if you look, it is a
:18:42. > :18:45.great thing for the middle-class, it is a great thing for companies to
:18:46. > :18:50.expand. When these people put billions of dollars in companies,
:18:51. > :18:54.and bring $2.5 trillion back, I happen to think it is double that,
:18:55. > :19:00.probably $5 trillion, that week can't bring into our country, with a
:19:01. > :19:04.little leadership, you will get hit in here very quickly and it could be
:19:05. > :19:08.put to use on the inner cities are not of the other things and it would
:19:09. > :19:14.be beautiful. But we have no leadership. And that started
:19:15. > :19:19.Secretary Clinton. -- starts with. You need to defend tax increases for
:19:20. > :19:22.the wealthy Americans. I think I will be blamed for everything that
:19:23. > :19:31.has ever happened by the end of this evening. Why not? Why not, join the
:19:32. > :19:35.debate by saying more crazy things. There's nothing crave this about not
:19:36. > :19:40.letting our companies bring our money back this is secretary
:19:41. > :19:46.Clinton's two minutes. Let's start the clock again. We have looked at
:19:47. > :19:54.your tax proposals. I do not seek changes in the corporate tax rates
:19:55. > :19:57.or the kinds of proposals you are referring to that would cause the
:19:58. > :20:04.bringing back of money stranded overseas. I happen to... Then you
:20:05. > :20:11.didn't read it. I happen to support that in a way that will work to our
:20:12. > :20:15.benefit. When I look at what you have proposed, you have got the
:20:16. > :20:21.Trump loophole which it would so advantage you and the business you
:20:22. > :20:25.do. You gave it that name? This is secretary Clinton's question. It
:20:26. > :20:36.would be a tax benefit for your family. ... How much of my family?
:20:37. > :20:39.It is Trumped up, trickle-down. Trickle-down did not work, it got us
:20:40. > :20:44.into the mess we were in into thousand and eight. Slashing taxes
:20:45. > :20:48.on the wealthy has not worked. And a lot of really smart and wealthy
:20:49. > :20:52.people know that. And they are saying, we need to do more to make
:20:53. > :20:56.the contributions we should be making to rebuild the middle-class.
:20:57. > :21:00.I don't think top-down works in America. I think building the
:21:01. > :21:04.middle-class, investing in the middle class, making college debt
:21:05. > :21:09.free so more young people can get their education, helping people
:21:10. > :21:14.refinance their debt from college at a lower rate, those are the kinds of
:21:15. > :21:17.things that will really boost the economy. Broad-based, inclusive
:21:18. > :21:26.growth is what we need in America. Not more advantages for people at
:21:27. > :21:30.the very top. Mr Trump... Typical politician, all talk, no action,
:21:31. > :21:34.sounds good, doesn't work, never going to happen. Our country is
:21:35. > :21:39.suffering because people like Secretary Clinton have made such bad
:21:40. > :21:44.decisions in terms of our jobs and in terms of what's going on. Now
:21:45. > :21:49.look, we have the worst revival of an economy since the great
:21:50. > :21:52.depression and believe me, we are in a bubble right now. And the only
:21:53. > :21:55.thing that looks good if the stock market but if you raise interest
:21:56. > :22:01.rates even before that, that will come crashing down. We are in a big,
:22:02. > :22:05.fat, ugly bubble and we better be awfully careful, and we have the Fed
:22:06. > :22:09.which doing political things, Janet Yellin of the Fed, the Fed is doing
:22:10. > :22:15.political by keeping interest rates at this level, and believe me, the
:22:16. > :22:18.day Obama goes off and leaves and goes to the golf course for the rest
:22:19. > :22:21.of his life, when they raise interest rates, you are going to see
:22:22. > :22:26.some very bad things happen because the Fed is not doing their job. The
:22:27. > :22:31.Fed is being more political than Secretary Clinton. Mr Trump, we are
:22:32. > :22:37.talking about the burdens that American have to pay, you have not
:22:38. > :22:43.released your tax returns. The reason nominees have released their
:22:44. > :22:47.return to the decades is that voters know if their potential president
:22:48. > :22:52.owes money and any potential business complex, don't Americans
:22:53. > :22:55.have a right to know if there is any conflicts of interest? I am under a
:22:56. > :22:57.routine audit and it will be released as soon as this are
:22:58. > :23:02.finished. You will learn more about Donald Trump by going down to the
:23:03. > :23:09.Federal elections where I filed a 104 page financial statement of
:23:10. > :23:14.sorts, the form they have, it shows income, in fact, the income, I just
:23:15. > :23:20.looked today, the income is filed at $694 million for this past year. If
:23:21. > :23:23.you would have told me I was going to make that 15 or 20 years ago, I
:23:24. > :23:26.would have been very surprised. But that's the kind of thinking that our
:23:27. > :23:31.country needs. When we have a country that doing so badly, that is
:23:32. > :23:34.being ripped off by every single country in the world, it's the kind
:23:35. > :23:40.of thinking that our country needs because everybody, we have a trade
:23:41. > :23:46.deficit with all of the countries that we do business with, of almost
:23:47. > :23:50.$800 billion a year. You know what that is? That means, who is
:23:51. > :23:57.negotiating the trade deals? We have political hacks negotiating our
:23:58. > :24:03.trade deal. The Iris says an audit of your taxes, you are perfectly
:24:04. > :24:06.free to release taxes during an audit, so does the public's write a
:24:07. > :24:12.note out where your personal... I will release them as soon the audit.
:24:13. > :24:17.I have been and ordered for 15 years, I know a lot of people who
:24:18. > :24:21.have not been audited, I get audited every year. In a way I should be
:24:22. > :24:26.complaining, I do not complain, it is almost a way of life, I am
:24:27. > :24:32.audited by the IRS. Other people do. Top other people do not. We have a
:24:33. > :24:36.situation in this country that has to be taken care of. I will release
:24:37. > :24:42.my tax terms, against my lawyer's wishes, when she releases her 33,000
:24:43. > :24:47.e-mails that have been deleted. As soon as she releases them, I will
:24:48. > :24:50.release, I will release my tax returns and that is against my
:24:51. > :24:56.lawyers, they say, don't do it. I will tell you this, in fact,
:24:57. > :25:00.watching shows, reading the papers, almost every lawyer says, you do not
:25:01. > :25:07.release your returns until the audit is complete. I would go against them
:25:08. > :25:17.if she releases her e-mails. So it is negotiable? Know, why did she
:25:18. > :25:21.delete... Let me admonition the audience, you were meant to be
:25:22. > :25:27.silent. I think you have just seen another example of bait and switch.
:25:28. > :25:31.For 40 years, everyone running for president has released their tax
:25:32. > :25:35.returns. You can go and see 39 or 40 years with tax returns but everyone
:25:36. > :25:39.has done it. We note the IRS has made clear there is no probation, on
:25:40. > :25:45.releasing it, when you're under audit. You have got to ask yourself,
:25:46. > :25:49.why will he not release his tax returns? And I think there could be
:25:50. > :25:54.a couple of reasons. First, maybe he is not as rich as he says he is.
:25:55. > :25:57.Second, maybe he is not as charitable as he claims to be.
:25:58. > :26:03.Third, we do not know all of his business dealings, but we have been
:26:04. > :26:09.told through investigative reporting that he owes about $650 million to
:26:10. > :26:13.Wall Street and foreign banks. Or maybe he doesn't want the American
:26:14. > :26:18.people, all of you watching tonight, to know that he's paid nothing in
:26:19. > :26:22.federal taxes, because the only year is that anybody has ever seen were a
:26:23. > :26:25.couple of years when he had to turn them over to state authorities when
:26:26. > :26:29.he was trying to get a casino licence and they showed he didn't
:26:30. > :26:38.pay any federal income tax. That makes me smart. That means 04
:26:39. > :26:43.troops, 04 veterans, 04 schools or health. -- that means zero, four
:26:44. > :26:50.troops, of actions, for schools and health. It is but he is not
:26:51. > :26:54.enthusiastic for the country to see what the real reasons are, it must
:26:55. > :26:58.be something terrible he is trying to hide. The financial disclosure
:26:59. > :27:03.statements do not give you the tax rates, all the details that tax
:27:04. > :27:07.returns to. And it seems to me that this is something that the American
:27:08. > :27:12.people deserve to see and I have no reason to believe that he is ever
:27:13. > :27:16.going to release his tax returns. Because there is something he is
:27:17. > :27:21.hiding. And we will guess, we will keep guessing at what it might be
:27:22. > :27:25.here is hiding. But I think the question is where he ever to get
:27:26. > :27:31.near the White House, what would be those conflicts? Who does he owe
:27:32. > :27:35.money to? Well, he owes you the answers to that and he should
:27:36. > :27:41.provide them. He also raised the issue of your e-mails, do you want
:27:42. > :27:45.to respond? I do. I made a mistake using a private e-mail... That is
:27:46. > :27:49.for sure. And if I had to do it again, I would obviously do it
:27:50. > :27:52.differently. But I'm not going to make any excuses, it was a mistake
:27:53. > :27:59.and I take response will achieve that. Mr Trump? That was more than a
:28:00. > :28:04.mistake. That was done purposely. That was not a mistake. That was
:28:05. > :28:08.done purposely. When you have your staff taking the fifth Amendment,
:28:09. > :28:11.taking the fifth, so they are not prosecuted, when you have the man
:28:12. > :28:15.that set up the illegal server taking the fifth, I think it's
:28:16. > :28:21.disgraceful. And believe me, this country thinks it's, really thinks
:28:22. > :28:25.is disgraceful also. As far as my tax returns, you don't learn that
:28:26. > :28:29.much on taxidermist, that I can tell you. You learn a lot from financial
:28:30. > :28:34.disclosure. And he should go down and take a look about. The other
:28:35. > :28:40.thing, I am extremely under leveraged. The report that says
:28:41. > :28:45.accountant and 50, by -- that said 650, a lot of friends of mine said
:28:46. > :28:50.they'll did not think that was a lot of money, the building that were
:28:51. > :28:55.mentioned, it was not even bad story, the buildings were worth 3.5
:28:56. > :28:59.billion dollars. The 650 was not on that, it is much less than that. I
:29:00. > :29:03.could give you a list of banks, if that would help you, I would give
:29:04. > :29:08.you a list of banks, very fine institutions, very fine banks, I can
:29:09. > :29:12.do that quickly. I have a great company, tremendous income and the
:29:13. > :29:18.reason I say that is not in a bag of vicious way, it is -- bragging way,
:29:19. > :29:23.it is about time that this country has somebody running at that has an
:29:24. > :29:29.idea about money. When we have $20 trillion in debt and our country is
:29:30. > :29:34.a mess, it is wanting to be in debt and our roads and bridges are good,
:29:35. > :29:41.and everything are in great shape and our airports, our airport like a
:29:42. > :29:45.third World country. You land in New York and we do not have the money
:29:46. > :29:48.because it has been squandered on so many of your ideas. And maybe
:29:49. > :29:52.because you have not paid any federal income tax for a lot of
:29:53. > :29:57.years. And the other thing... It would be squandered too, believe me.
:29:58. > :30:00.If your main claim to be president of the United States is your
:30:01. > :30:05.business, then I think we should talk about that. Your campaign
:30:06. > :30:11.manager said that you built a lot of businesses on the backs of little
:30:12. > :30:18.guys. And indeed, I have met a lot of the people who were stiffed by
:30:19. > :30:22.you and your businesses, Donald. I have met dishwashers, painters,
:30:23. > :30:28.architects, alas installer is, marble installers, -- blasts
:30:29. > :30:36.installers, drapery installers like my dad, who you refuse to pay when
:30:37. > :30:42.they finished their work. We have an architect that designed one of your
:30:43. > :30:45.clubhouses at a golf course. It is a beautiful facility, it immediately
:30:46. > :30:51.was put to use. And you would not pay what the man needed to be paid
:30:52. > :30:55.what he was charging you... Maybe he didn't do a good job and I was not
:30:56. > :30:59.satisfied with his work, which our country should do. The thousands of
:31:00. > :31:04.people that you have stiffed over the course of your business, do they
:31:05. > :31:10.not deserve some kind of apology? From someone who has taken their
:31:11. > :31:13.labour, taking the goods they produce, and then refused to pay
:31:14. > :31:17.them? I can only say that I am certainly relieved that my late
:31:18. > :31:21.father never did business with you. When we talk about your business,
:31:22. > :31:29.you have taken business bankruptcy six-pack -- six times.
:31:30. > :31:31.There are a lot of great businesspeople that have never
:31:32. > :31:35.You call yourself the King of Debt. You talk about leverage.
:31:36. > :31:38.You even at one time suggested that you would try to negotiate
:31:39. > :31:43.Well, sometimes there's not a direct transfer of skills from business
:31:44. > :31:46.to Government, but sometimes what happened in business would be
:31:47. > :31:56.And we need to be very clear about that.
:31:57. > :31:58.Look, it's all words, it's all sound bites.
:31:59. > :32:07.Some of the greatest assets anywhere in the world, real estate assets
:32:08. > :32:09.anywhere in the world, beyond the United States,
:32:10. > :32:20.But on occasion, four times, we used certain laws that are there.
:32:21. > :32:22.And when Secretary Clinton talks about people that didn't get paid,
:32:23. > :32:31.first of all, they did get paid a lot, but taken advantage
:32:32. > :32:35.Now, if you want to change the laws, you've been there a long time,
:32:36. > :32:38.But I take advantage of the laws of the nation because I'm
:32:39. > :33:04.Stop-and-frisk was ruled unconstitutional in New York,
:33:05. > :33:07.because it largely singled out black and Hispanic young men.
:33:08. > :33:10.It went before a judge, who was a very against-police judge.
:33:11. > :33:15.And our mayor, our new mayor, refused to go forward with the case.
:33:16. > :33:19.If you look at it, throughout the country, there are many places
:33:20. > :33:22.The argument is that it's a form of racial profiling.
:33:23. > :33:26.No, the argument is that we have to take the guns away from these
:33:27. > :33:28.people that have them and they are bad people that
:33:29. > :33:33.These are people that are bad people that shouldn't be...when
:33:34. > :33:35.you have 3,000 shootings in Chicago from January first,
:33:36. > :33:37.when you have 4,000 people killed in Chicago by guns,
:33:38. > :33:40.from the beginning of the presidency of Barack Obama, his hometown,
:33:41. > :33:44.You need a better community, you know, relation.
:33:45. > :33:46.You don't have good community relations in Chicago.
:33:47. > :33:49.It's terrible what's going on in Chicago.
:33:50. > :33:52.But when you look...and Chicago's not the only...you go to Ferguson,
:33:53. > :33:56.I agree with Secretary Clinton on this.
:33:57. > :33:58.You need better relationships between the communities
:33:59. > :34:14.and the police, because in some cases, it's not good.
:34:15. > :34:15.But we need...Lester, we need law and order.
:34:16. > :34:18.And we need law and order in the inner cities,
:34:19. > :34:20.because the people that are most affected by what's happening
:34:21. > :34:21.are African-American and Hispanic people.
:34:22. > :34:24.And it's very unfair to them what our politicians
:34:25. > :34:27.Well, I've heard...I've heard Donald say this at his rallies,
:34:28. > :34:30.and it's really unfortunate that he paints such a dire negative
:34:31. > :34:31.picture of black communities in our country.
:34:32. > :34:34.You know, the vibrancy of the black church,
:34:35. > :34:36.the black businesses that employ so many people,
:34:37. > :34:38.the opportunities that so many families are working
:34:39. > :34:43.There's a lot that we should be proud of and we should be
:34:44. > :34:47.But we do always have to make sure we keep people safe.
:34:48. > :34:50.There are the right ways of doing it, and then there are ways
:34:51. > :34:53.Stop-and-frisk was found to be unconstitutional and, in part,
:34:54. > :35:13.And it's just a fact that if you're a young African-American man
:35:14. > :35:16.and you do the same thing as a young white man,
:35:17. > :35:18.you are more likely to be arrested, charged,
:35:19. > :35:21.So we've got to address the systemic racism in our
:35:22. > :35:42.along with the gun lobby...right now, we've got too many military-
:35:43. > :35:45.In a lot of places, our police are outgunned.
:35:46. > :35:48.We need comprehensive background checks, and we need to keep guns out
:35:49. > :35:50.of the hands of those who will do harm.
:35:51. > :35:53.And we finally need to pass a prohibition on anyone who's
:35:54. > :35:55.on the terrorist watch list from being able to buy
:35:56. > :36:23.If you're too dangerous to fly, you are too dangerous to buy a gun.
:36:24. > :36:25.But I will tell you, I've been all over.
:36:26. > :36:27.And I've met some of the greatest people I'll ever meet
:36:28. > :36:31.And they are very, very upset with what their politicians have
:36:32. > :36:33.told them and what their politicians have done.
:36:34. > :36:35.I think...I think...I think Donald just criticized me for preparing
:36:36. > :36:39.And you know what else I prepared for?
:36:40. > :36:49.Mr Trump, for five years, you perpetuated a false claim
:36:50. > :36:51.that the nation's first black president was not
:36:52. > :36:56.In the last couple of weeks, you acknowledged what most Americans
:36:57. > :36:58.have accepted for years: The president was born
:36:59. > :37:01.Can you tell us what took you so long?
:37:02. > :37:03.I'll tell you very...well, just very simple to say.
:37:04. > :37:05.Sidney Blumenthal works for the campaign and close...very
:37:06. > :37:08.And her campaign manager, Patti Doyle, went to...during
:37:09. > :37:10.the campaign, her campaign against President Obama,
:37:11. > :37:16.And you can go look it up, and you can check it out.
:37:17. > :37:19.And if you look at CNN this past week, Patti Solis Doyle
:37:20. > :37:23.was on Wolf Blitzer saying that this happened.
:37:24. > :37:26.Blumenthal sent McClatchy, highly respected reporter at McClatchy,
:37:27. > :37:38.She failed to get the birth certificate.
:37:39. > :37:42.I got him to give the birth certificate.
:37:43. > :37:45.And I'll tell you why I'm satisfied with it.
:37:46. > :37:49.Because I want to get on to defeating Isis,
:37:50. > :37:51.because I want to get on to creating jobs,
:37:52. > :37:54.because I want to get on to having a strong border, because I want
:37:55. > :37:58.to get on to things that are very important to me and that are very
:37:59. > :38:03.But I just want to get the answer here.
:38:04. > :38:05.The birth certificate was produced in 2011.
:38:06. > :38:07.You've continued to tell the story and question the president's
:38:08. > :38:15.So the question is, what changed your mind?
:38:16. > :38:17.Well, nobody was pressing it, nobody was caring much about it.
:38:18. > :38:20.I figured you'd ask the question tonight, of course.
:38:21. > :38:25.But I was the one that got him to produce the birth certificate.
:38:26. > :38:33.I mean, you know...now, everybody in mainstream
:38:34. > :38:35.is going to say, oh, that's not true.
:38:36. > :38:38.Sidney Blumenthal sent a reporter...you just have
:38:39. > :38:40.to take a look at CNN, the last week, the interview
:38:41. > :38:51.But just like she can't bring back jobs, she can't produce.
:38:52. > :38:55.I'm just going to follow up...and I will let you respond to that,
:38:56. > :38:59.But we're talking about racial healing in this segment.
:39:00. > :39:01.What do you say to Americans, people of colour who...
:39:02. > :39:06.I say nothing, because I was able to get him to produce it.
:39:07. > :39:08.He should have produced it a long time before.
:39:09. > :39:24.And clearly, as Donald just admitted, he knew
:39:25. > :39:26.he was going to stand on this debate stage,
:39:27. > :39:28.and Lester Holt was going to be asking us questions,
:39:29. > :39:31.so he tried to put the whole racist birther lie to bed.
:39:32. > :39:34.But it can't be dismissed that easily.
:39:35. > :39:37.He has really started his political activity based on this racist lie
:39:38. > :40:08.that our first black president was not an American citizen.
:40:09. > :40:10.Well, first I have to say one thing, very important.
:40:11. > :40:12.Secretary Clinton is talking about taking out Isis.
:40:13. > :40:15.Well, President Obama and Secretary Clinton created
:40:16. > :40:18.a vacuum the way they got out of Iraq, because they got
:40:19. > :40:20.out...what, they shouldn't have been in, but once they got in,
:40:21. > :40:29.She's been trying to take them out for a long time.
:40:30. > :40:32.But they wouldn't have even been formed if they left some troops
:40:33. > :40:34.behind, like 10,000 or maybe something more than that.
:40:35. > :40:39.Or, as I've been saying for a long time, and I think you'll agree,
:40:40. > :40:43.because I said it to you once, had we taken the oil...and we should
:40:44. > :40:45.have taken the oil...ISIS would not have been able to form
:40:46. > :40:48.either, because the oil was their primary source of income.
:40:49. > :40:51.And now they have the oil all over the place, including the oil...a lot
:40:52. > :40:53.of the oil in Libya, which was another one
:40:54. > :40:58.Well, I hope the fact-checkers are turning up the volume
:40:59. > :41:00.Donald supported the invasion of Iraq.
:41:01. > :41:03.That is absolutely proved over and over again.
:41:04. > :41:06.He actually advocated for the actions we took in Libya
:41:07. > :41:09.and urged that Gadhafi be taken out, after actually doing some
:41:10. > :41:17.But the larger point...and he says this constantly...is George W.
:41:18. > :41:21.Bush made the agreement about when American troops
:41:22. > :41:53.When Isis formed in this vacuum created by Barack Obama
:41:54. > :41:57.And believe me, you were the ones that took out the troops.
:41:58. > :42:02.They sat back probably and said, I can't believe it.
:42:03. > :42:06.When they formed, when they formed, this is something that never
:42:07. > :42:09.Now, you're talking about taking out Isis.
:42:10. > :42:12.But you were there, and you were Secretary of State
:42:13. > :42:19.A lot of these are judgment questions.
:42:20. > :42:21.You had supported the war in Iraq before the invasion.
:42:22. > :42:26.That is a mainstream media nonsense put out by her,
:42:27. > :42:28.because she...frankly, I think the best person
:42:29. > :42:33.Why is your...why is your judgment...
:42:34. > :42:43.When I did an interview with Howard Stern, very lightly,
:42:44. > :42:45.first time anyone's asked me that, I said, very lightly,
:42:46. > :42:50.I then did an interview with Neil Cavuto.
:42:51. > :42:52.We talked about the economy is more important.
:42:53. > :42:54.I then spoke to Sean Hannity, which everybody refuses
:42:55. > :42:57.I had numerous conversations with Sean Hannity at Fox.
:42:58. > :42:59.And Sean Hannity said...and he called me the other day...and
:43:00. > :43:02.I spoke to him about it...he said you were totally against the war,
:43:03. > :43:11.Sean Hannity said very strongly to me and other
:43:12. > :43:13.people...he's willing to say it, but nobody wants to call him.
:43:14. > :43:18.He said, you used to have fights with me, because Sean was in favor
:43:19. > :43:22.And I understand that side, also, not very much,
:43:23. > :43:24.because we should have never been there.
:43:25. > :43:27.And then they did an article in a major magazine,
:43:28. > :43:37.But they did an article which had me totally against the war in Iraq.
:43:38. > :43:39.And one of your compatriots said, you know, whether it was before
:43:40. > :43:42.or right after, Trump was definitely...because if you read
:43:43. > :43:47.But if somebody...and I'll ask the press...if somebody
:43:48. > :43:52.would call up Sean Hannity, this was before the war started.
:43:53. > :43:54.He and I used to have arguments about the war.
:43:55. > :43:56.I said, it's a terrible and a stupid thing.
:43:57. > :43:59.It's going to destabilize the Middle East.
:44:00. > :44:05.My reference was to what you had said in 2002, and my question was...
:44:06. > :44:10.Why is your judgment...why is your judgment any different than Mrs.
:44:11. > :44:13.Well, I have much better judgment than she does.
:44:14. > :44:18.I also have a much better temperament than she has, you know?
:44:19. > :44:22.I have a much better...she spent...let me tell you...she spent
:44:23. > :44:26.hundreds of millions of dollars on an advertising...you know,
:44:27. > :44:28.they get Madison Avenue into a room, they put names...oh,
:44:29. > :44:30.temperament, let's go after...I think my strongest asset,
:44:31. > :44:39.I know how to win. She does not have a...
:44:40. > :44:44.The AFL-CIO the other day, behind the blue screen,
:44:45. > :44:46.I don't know who you were talking to, Secretary Clinton,
:44:47. > :44:51.I said, there's a person with a temperament that's
:44:52. > :45:04.Let's talk about two important issues that were briefly mentioned
:45:05. > :45:14.You know, Nato as a military alliance has something called
:45:15. > :45:17.Article five, and basically it says this: An attack on one
:45:18. > :45:20.And you know the only time it's ever been invoked?
:45:21. > :45:24.After 9/11, when the 28 nations of Nato said that they would go
:45:25. > :45:25.to Afghanistan with us to fight terrorism, something
:45:26. > :45:34.that they still are doing by our side.
:45:35. > :45:36.With respect to Iran, when I became Secretary of State,
:45:37. > :45:38.Iran was weeks away from having enough nuclear material
:45:39. > :45:46.They had mastered the nuclear fuel cycle under the Bush administration.
:45:47. > :45:52.They had stocked them with centrifuges that
:45:53. > :45:58.I voted for every sanction against Iran when I was in
:45:59. > :46:04.So I spent a year-and-a-half putting together a coalition that included
:46:05. > :46:12.Russia and China to impose the toughest sanctions on Iran.
:46:13. > :46:14.And we did drive them to the negotiating table.
:46:15. > :46:17.And my successor, John Kerry, and President Obama got a deal that
:46:18. > :46:20.put a lid on Iran's nuclear programme without firing
:46:21. > :46:28.That's diplomacy. That's coalition-building.
:46:29. > :46:33.The other day, I saw Donald saying that there were some Iranian sailors
:46:34. > :46:37.on a ship in the waters off Iran, and they were taunting American
:46:38. > :46:46.He said, you know, if they taunted our sailors,
:46:47. > :46:54.I'd blow them out of the water and start another war.
:46:55. > :46:59.That is not the right temperament to be commander-in-
:47:00. > :47:09.Of what we heard Donald say has been about nuclear weapons.
:47:10. > :47:12.He has said repeatedly that he didn't care if other nations
:47:13. > :47:14.got nuclear weapons, Japan, South Korea, even Saudi Arabia.
:47:15. > :47:16.It has been the policy of the United States,
:47:17. > :47:18.Democrats and Republicans, to do everything we could to reduce
:47:19. > :47:23.the proliferation of nuclear weapons.
:47:24. > :47:25.He even said, well, you know, if there were nuclear
:47:26. > :47:29.war in East Asia, well, you know, that's fine...
:47:30. > :47:38.And, in fact, his cavalier attitude about nuclear weapons
:47:39. > :47:46.That is the number-one threat we face in the world.
:47:47. > :47:47.And it becomes particularly threatening if terrorists
:47:48. > :48:04.ever get their hands on any nuclear material.
:48:05. > :48:06.Earlier this month, you said she doesn't have,
:48:07. > :48:17.And I don't believe she does have the stamina.
:48:18. > :48:21.To be president of this country, you need tremendous stamina.
:48:22. > :48:23.You have to be able to negotiate our trade deals.
:48:24. > :48:26.You have to be able to negotiate, that's right, with Japan,
:48:27. > :48:29.I mean, can you imagine, we're defending Saudi Arabia?
:48:30. > :48:31.And with all of the money they have, we're defending them,
:48:32. > :48:39.You have so many different things you have to be able to do,
:48:40. > :48:41.and I don't believe that Hillary has the stamina.
:48:42. > :48:49.Well, as soon as he travels to 112 countries and negotiates a peace
:48:50. > :48:52.deal, a ceasefire, a release of dissidents, an opening
:48:53. > :48:58.of new opportunities in nations around the world, or even spends 11
:48:59. > :49:00.hours testifying in front of a congressional committee,
:49:01. > :49:17.Hillary has experience, but it's bad experience.
:49:18. > :49:20.We have made so many bad deals during the last...so she's got
:49:21. > :49:28.Whether it's the Iran deal that you're so in love with,
:49:29. > :49:31.where we gave them $150 billion back, whether it's the Iran deal,
:49:32. > :49:33.whether it's anything you can...name...you almost
:49:34. > :49:37.She's got experience, but it's bad experience.
:49:38. > :49:40.And this country can't afford to have another four years
:49:41. > :49:45.We are at...we are at the final question.
:49:46. > :49:54.You know, he tried to switch from looks to stamina.
:49:55. > :49:58.But this is a man who has called women pigs, slobs and dogs,
:49:59. > :50:07.and someone who has said pregnancy is an inconvenience to employers,
:50:08. > :50:13.Women don't deserve equal pay unless they do as good a job as men.
:50:14. > :50:17.And one of the worst things he said was about a woman
:50:18. > :50:22.He loves beauty contests, supporting them and hanging around them.
:50:23. > :50:26.And he called this woman "Miss Piggy."
:50:27. > :50:28.Then he called her "Miss Housekeeping,"
:50:29. > :50:40.And she has become a US citizen, and you can bet...
:50:41. > :50:52.You know, Hillary is hitting me with tremendous commercials.
:50:53. > :50:56.Some of it's said...somebody who's been very vicious to me,
:50:57. > :50:58.Rosie O'Donnell, I said very tough things to her,
:50:59. > :51:01.and I think everybody would agree that she deserves it and nobody
:51:02. > :51:10.Extremely rough to Hillary, to her family, and I said
:51:11. > :51:20.But she spent hundreds of millions of dollars on negative ads
:51:21. > :51:25.on me, many of which are absolutely untrue.
:51:26. > :51:31.And I will tell you this, Lester: It's not nice.
:51:32. > :51:35.But it's certainly not a nice thing that she's done.
:51:36. > :51:43.And the only gratifying thing is, I saw the polls come in today,
:51:44. > :51:46.We have to move on to the final question.
:51:47. > :51:49.$200 million is spent, and I'm either winning or tied,
:51:50. > :51:54.One of you will not win this election.
:51:55. > :51:57.So my final question to you tonight, are you willing to accept
:51:58. > :51:59.the outcome as the will of the voters?
:52:00. > :52:06.And sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.
:52:07. > :52:10.But I certainly will support the outcome of this election.
:52:11. > :52:13.And I know Donald's trying very hard to plant doubts about it,
:52:14. > :52:15.but I hope the people out there understand: This
:52:16. > :52:22.It's not about us so much as it is about you and your families
:52:23. > :52:24.and the kind of country and future you want.
:52:25. > :52:27.So I sure hope you will get out and vote as though your
:52:28. > :52:34.future depended on it, because I think it does.
:52:35. > :52:37.Will you accept the outcome as the will of the voters?
:52:38. > :52:40.We are a nation that is seriously troubled.
:52:41. > :52:43.We're losing our jobs. People are pouring into our country.
:52:44. > :52:48.The other day, we were deporting 800 people.
:52:49. > :52:50.And perhaps they passed the wrong button, they pressed the wrong
:52:51. > :52:53.button, or perhaps worse than that, it was corruption, but these people
:52:54. > :52:55.that we were going to deport for good reason ended
:52:56. > :53:06.And now it turns out it might be 1,800, and they don't even know.
:53:07. > :53:09.Will you accept the outcome of the election?
:53:10. > :53:20.The answer is, if she wins, I will absolutely support her.
:53:21. > :53:22.That concludes our debate for this evening, a spirit one.
:53:23. > :53:24.We covered a lot of ground, not everything as I
:53:25. > :53:28.The next presidential debates are scheduled for October ninth
:53:29. > :53:31.Louis and October 19th at the University of Nevada Las
:53:32. > :53:39.The vice presidential debate is scheduled for October fourth
:53:40. > :53:41.at Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia.
:53:42. > :53:44.My thanks to Hillary Clinton and to Donald Trump
:53:45. > :53:46.and to Hofstra University for hosting us tonight.
:53:47. > :54:12.Was the first of three presidential debates. It lasted 90 minutes and
:54:13. > :54:17.afterwards, supporters on both sides saw it as a victory. Our reporter
:54:18. > :54:24.has been assessing the mood of both camps. After 90 minutes of trading
:54:25. > :54:31.blows, it was time to find a more welcoming arena. Her fans will see
:54:32. > :54:36.this as a victory lap. But to win, involves some spin. Donald Trump
:54:37. > :54:39.took the unusual step of entering the pressroom himself, as both
:54:40. > :54:48.candidates declared themselves champion. Donald Trump won Leigh Day
:54:49. > :54:52.hands down. Clinton proved she could not be president. The political
:54:53. > :54:58.drama gripped viewers in the United States. They cheered and jeered as
:54:59. > :55:03.the combat continued but it is unclear what impact it will have.
:55:04. > :55:08.Overall, disappointed. I did not hear a lot of reasons to vote for
:55:09. > :55:18.either candidate. I heard a lot of tit-for-tat, a lot of attacks. He
:55:19. > :55:24.did not come off as stupid or insensitive as you normally would. I
:55:25. > :55:30.have to give him some respect on that. It was comical. I got what I
:55:31. > :55:39.expected. Hillary represented totally. She said, check my resume.
:55:40. > :55:48.Trump, on the other hand, made a lot of... People tuned in in China,
:55:49. > :55:53.after searching online. TRANSLATION: I personally like Trump's character,
:55:54. > :55:56.he feels like a fighter. From today's performance, I think Clinton
:55:57. > :56:02.was more like the mature politician, Trump looked like a misfit. There
:56:03. > :56:07.was no humbling as some anticipated. But the debate has made history and
:56:08. > :56:11.not just in viewing figures. Amidst the noise, it has been forgotten
:56:12. > :56:19.that this is the first time a woman has been on the presidential debate
:56:20. > :56:22.stage. There is more on the US presidential debate on our website.
:56:23. > :56:33.For highlights, reaction and analysis, go to our website. Coming
:56:34. > :56:35.up at midday, a Service of Thanksgiving for broadcasting
:56:36. > :56:40.legend, Sir Terry Wogan at Westminster Abbey. We will bring you
:56:41. > :56:49.coverage of that when it begins at midday. Let's catch up with the
:56:50. > :56:59.weather. Thank you. Lots of cloud around. We're seeing some breaks in
:57:00. > :57:00.that and some sunshine coming through. Behind this
