Hillary looked like she was *forbidden topic*. She was swaying and had that goofy, arrogant grin the whole time. She repeated mainly memorized talking points with no substance. She was not fully present. That being said, Trump had several opportunities to deliver knockout blows, but he didn't. Trump was disappointing, but he was much more on top of real world problems than Hillary, but he could have done much better.

I don't recall once where Clinton interrupted Trump.
If you look at my numerous post, I have said numerous times that Trump is a terrible debater he doesn't have poise or temperament.
The big problem Trump has- is who you saw Monday was the real Trump- if he comes back on debate 2 and becomes more relaxed it wouldn't be the "real" Trump and he will look artificial. Just look at the press conference when Trump was in Mexico and he gave a "Presidential" type speech, but he didn't look comfortable and looked out of his element and that's going to hurt Trump.
