What exactly happened? They piped his vocals into a secret control room where Democrats changed his words to make him look stupid?

Its the same with the media, they make him say dumb stuff all day long, those evil liberals, there so good.

So did the mic make trump say dumb #?

Must be one of those MK Ultra mics. Wait....he says dumb # daily. So, not the mic.

I think mr X might have finnaly found the truth, those evil liberal mics are here to take over the world.

Because she sucks too.

Pretty much.

If Trump did not come across as an unhinged nutbar he could have trounced her since she is so unlikeable.

But mah microphone iz brokenz.

As someone who despises both candidates I cannot see how his microphone caused him to have a poor debate. If the commission said his head was 'messed up', then I could understand.

What does it matter about the microphone? I heard him just fine on my television.

The point is - Trump said his mic was messed up. Everyone thought he was making up excuses. Reality is, his mic was messed up.

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

The fact that his mic was messed up inside the debate hall doesn't negate the fact that he was making excuses.

Trump was making excuses, because he lost and his ego doesn't know how to handle that.

That's your opinion. It's not like there were points scored.

Debate commission bent over backwards to give Hillary everything she wanted.

Couldn't even be bothered to give Trump a normal working microphone.

Sure, it's not rigged.

It's also the opinion of most of the rest of the country.

Though I'm sure you'll tell me this poll is rigged or some nonsense like that.

Yeah I heard him just fine too.
Every word...


& every sniff.

It's called inhaling, something normal people do.

Daily caller. Nope nope.
I watched the debate from start to finish. There was nothing wrong with his Mic. I heard every word that came out of his mouth. Loud and clear.
When he argued with the moderator, loud and clear.
When he constantly sniffed, loud and clear
And when he interrupted Hillary 69 times we heard him loud and clear.
There wasn't a blasted thing wrong with his Mic.
The big baby.

Is a fottball kicker who discovers he was handed a deflated football "making excuses" for missing a field goal?

Is a pro pool player "making excuses" when he discovers the table is not level?

A debate is all about the speakers voice being heard and the mic is the most important tool for conveying the voice.

Breathing through the nose is a foreign concept to Hillary's mouth-breathers.

Well yeah that's true enough.

So who was in charge of sound testing the mics before airing?

lemmee guess...

Once again trump proven right.

Also - check this nugget out -

Even Machado knew she was overweight.

Being overweight and knowing it and losing it is a lot different than calling someone a fat pig. Trump should possibly join the program she followed.

Who cares if he called her a fat pig. Sticks and stones is a rhyme we all learned in elementary school.

This is the 2016 equivalent of Nixon in poor lighting with no make-up as opposed to Kennedy. Many people believe that is why he lost. hillary has 20 minute coughing jags, and lets not forget - she had pneumonia. Maybe Trump caught it from her...

Did he blame the loss on the mic or just say something was wrong with the mike? Seems many of you are combining the two when you should not be.

The mic was screwed up. ANYONE who has even done sound could tell you this. It happens. I have had gigs where I sounded horrible and others where I never sounded better. You are at the mercy of the board in big events.

So, the mic was messed up and they admitted to it. How is this whining? Again, he pointed something out, was bashed for a few days and it came out that he was right.

www.politicususa.com...

Here is video where he says he had a bad mike. I do not hear him say it is why he lost...that is the MSM.

You guys are funny at this point...

*they're

Playing his words out of context only appeals to the low information crowd. People that pay attention can see that the media is biased and full of beans.

I asked that question earlier.
When did trump blame the mic for his performance?

Election Update: Early Polls Suggest A Post-Debate Bounce For Clinton
Though I'm sure you'll tell me this poll is rigged or some nonsense like that.

I'd say cherry picked, not rigged... Regardless, this is from your own link.

The first poll is from Morning Consult (1253 likely voters). . .

The other survey is from Echelon Insights's Twitter feed (1529 likely voters [internet]). . .

Apart from these polls, the only other data we have is from the USC Dornsife/Los Angeles Times and UPI/CVOTER national tracking polls, but I’d discourage people from paying very much attention to them. It’s nothing against the polls themselves — in fact, I’ve defended the USC/LA Times poll’s methodology in the past — it’s just a matter of timing. Each poll uses a 7-day field period, which means that only about one-seventh of their interviews were conducted after the debate. I’d wait a couple of days before making too much of these surveys — until they consist mostly of post-debate interviews.

So out of 2782 likely voters (not most of the rest of the country), Clinton wins by 4 points. And it's a safe bet those are in blue areas, except for the Twitter poll, which I've never even heard of before.
