2do debate mexico9/8/2023 ![]() ![]() Raman Mama, George Washington University:Īccording to many students, Hillary Clinton bettered Trump in the realm of substantive policy discussion, but several students noted that Trump employed a seemingly effective debate tactic that kept the former Secretary of State uncharacteristically defensive. Ivan Arcila Carranza, junior from Mexico, studies business administration I would like them to answer the questions. And instead of saying what things they do about taxes, they went on and said what the other did or didn’t do about taxes in the past instead of talking about what they want to do if they’re elected. ![]() For example, there was a question on specific things they would do with taxes. I feel like they should be talking more about what concrete things they’re trying, what they would like to do for the country - just answering the questions directly, I feel like that would be nice. I was kind of disappointed at that I was hoping that they be a little bit more neutral. I felt like they were - at least at the beginning of the debate and during part of it - to a certain extent, going after Trump, being to a certain extent aggressive towards Trump, where they weren’t so much toward Hillary. I also felt like the moderators didn’t do a really good job. I was hoping that they will actually talk about policy this time as opposed to just like what is good - just trash-talking each other. Hillary’s not, like, a favorite one either, but I think she’s a lot better than Trump. I don't think Donald Trump is fit to be president. Foreign policy is a big thing and our economy in general. Most of them were talking about personal issues instead of America in general, and I know Trump diverted a lot from the questions. Soumya Kochhari, first-year graduate student in economics from India He’s not a person who really respects the other person’s views. Hillary - she’s talking about her agendas, her plans, what she’s going to do, while Trump is more like a guy with his ego and his attitude, and he’s basically feeling hurt by what she’s saying, and he just wants to get back at her. I have no idea what that was meant to signify. A crazy moment was when Trump just offhand said that Russia is new to nuclear. I think he got more comfortable as it went on and it was obviously chaotic, but she was much more fluid and personable this time than she has before maybe the format suits her much better. He started it very timid for himself which was odd. He came in with an inherent disadvantage there. Trump was coming into it obviously beleaguered by his recent comments on women. In this debate, I think that Hillary killed him. I feel more angry going into this debate, so my mood has changed a lot. This weekend has been kind of rough with the news for Donald Trump. Having the different citizens ask the questions makes a very different environment. I think that she's just in general a more respectful and dignified candidate. ![]() I agree with her just on the basis of my own political standing. ![]() In this debate, the different tones they have, I think Hillary has been a lot more positive and Trump is being more negative. ![]()
