Trump's campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway specializes in pairing women voters with unlikely Republican suitors. She knew it was a tough night when she heard her candidate pull Rosie O'Donnell out of the ether. That Rosie deserved it, was not a stirring defense to comparing women to various domestic and barnyard animals.
Conway's horrors continued. After spending the night sniffling, snorting, yelling and interrupting, Trump's effusive praise of his own temperament provoked uncontrollable laughter, from an audience admonished to show no reactions. Hillary, always in control, merely smiled. In fact she smiled through most of the last hour of the debate, watching her opponent flounder.
The coup de gras was Trump, under attack for his prior sexist statements that Hillary did not look presidential, pivoting to the only slightly less misogynistic claim, that she lacked stamina. The statement was juxtaposed with Trump's tank running out of gas. His national security rants were rambling, babbling brooks of incoherence. He had neither the emotional, physical nor intellectual stamina to go ninety minutes with Hillary.
Kellyanne rushed to the spin room to attempt to repair the irreparable.
