You can tell who won a debate by which one does the best trolling the next day. Here's Trump:

I won every poll from last nights Presidential Debate - except for the little watched @CNN poll.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 27, 2016

Yeah, that would be the 62-27 ass-whomping he got in the CNN poll (and the 51-40 PPP poll, as long was we’re counting). As opposed to all those freeped internet polls he pays attention to. Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton is taking a victory lap, savoring the moment with some expert trolling.

Whatever the poor, desperate Trump has to do, she can handle. That includes two more debates, which her unworthy opponent might just not be able to handle.

Hillary Clinton will be at the next debate in St. Louis and the one after that in Las Vegas, regardless of whether Donald Trump decides to show up, she maintained Tuesday.
Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, a top Trump surrogate, suggested that the Republican presidential nominee forgo the remaining presidential debates unless he's assured by the moderators that they will "act like a journalist and not an incorrect, ignorant fact-checker."

"Well, I'm gonna show up," Clinton told reporters Tuesday during a gaggle aboard her campaign plane in White Plains, New York. "He gets to decide what he's gonna do, but I will be there at Wash U in St. Louis and then after that in Las Vegas. If I'm the only person on stage, well, you know, I'm the only person on stage."

Since Trump decided to skip two of the primary debates, it's an open question whether he will show at the next two. The whomping he got—and by a girl!—this round might just chase him away again. But he's on notice now: Hillary won't let up, no matter what he decides to do.
