The debate

Who won the debate?

In my opinion I believe that the winner of the debate from a public speaking point would have to be Hillary Clinton.  She spoke very professionally.  She knew her topics very well and knew how to go on with them.  Although at times she was very monotone she also looked very confident which kind of turned us away from her being monotone.  Unlike Trump she was aggressive and bullied her opponent.  Hillary spoke very clearly while Trump would sniff and his over use of hand motions would distract the audience.  When pressured by Trump she remained very calm and never got nervous.  When pressured she would come up with an answer to what he was asking without pause.
            Although there were many good things about her in this debate there were some things that she could work on.  For example she referred to her family too many times.  Talking about her dads line of work and how he was a middle class man trying to make a living for his family.  She also talked about how her husband was in office and how he could he a great help with her.   She also promoted her book at one point during the debate, which in my eyes I feel that it is unprofessional to do.  Lastly one thing that I think that she can fix is her avoiding some of the questions that Trump asked her.

            I think that Hillary did a great job speaking and stuck to what she believed.  She was never stumped by a question that was asked to her.  Although I don’t agree fully with her campaign I do thing that she seemed a little more prepared during this debate and knew what to say.
