I think Trump was coached by his handlers to not go into personal insults. Was it a good strategy? Only time will tell.

There are three debates. No one will remember this one. No one will remember the second one. The last one is where Trump will take off the gloves.

Trump was pretty much a gentleman last night. Clinton was pretty much a smug bitch. It showed.

The debate was clearly rigged to make Trump look bad and Clinton look good.

IMHO - FAIL!

I concur 100% with your post.

I agree. 2 more debates.

A wise general doesn’t shoot all his ammo on the first engagement with the enemy.

Trump did not give her a chance to spin on some issues he could have brought up. He will not allow her to inoculate herself with some lame excuse.

He’ll hit her with explosives in each of the next 2 events.

I thought his Bernie Sanders cheated comment last night was a home run. Her emails revealed she cheated each and every Sanders supporter. So, they might come to Trump and might not. But there’s a good chance they stay home, go to Stein, or go to Johnson. It’s their only honorable response.
