Hillary Clinton's Persuasive Speech
Donald Trump’s microphone during Monday’s presidential debate against Hillary Clinton had audio issues, the Commission on Presidential Debates said Friday, providing a measure of vindication for the Republican nominee.
Trump had complained that his microphone was “defective,” suggesting that the debate may have been rigged by floating a conspiracy theory that his microphone had been tampered with.
“They gave me a defective mic!” he told reporters in the spin room Monday night. “[I] wonder, was that on purpose?”
He echoed that sentiment Tuesday during a phone interview with “Fox and Friends.” “I don’t know if you saw that in the room, but my microphone was terrible. I wonder, was it set up that way on purpose?” he asked.
In the same interview, he also denied having …show more content…
sniffles, instead commenting that “the mic was very bad” and “maybe it was good enough to hear breathing. But no sniffles. No cold.”
Clinton tried to ding Trump for his complaints about the microphone, telling reporters Tuesday, “Anybody who complains about the microphone is not having a good night.”
But the debate commission partially validated Trump’s claim Friday. “Regarding the first debate, there were issues regarding Donald Trump’s audio that affected the sound level in the debate hall,” it said in a statement.
According to a source with knowledge of conversations with the debate commissioners, part of the issue rested with Trump touching his microphone, something candidates had been told not to do because the microphones were "calibrated exactly" to the candidate's voices.
A spokesperson for the Commission on Presidential Debates and one of the commissioners did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Monday’s debate it was clear that Clinton’s campaign was delivering heavy blow after heavy blow to the Trump party.
On Several occasions during the debate Clinton talked about Trump’s sexist commentary using logos to make the crowd understand that he wasn’t worthy of their vote. Clinton also used logos when answering questions that had to do with the economy saying, “I also want to see more companies do profit-sharing. If you help create the profits, you should be able to share in them, not just the executives at the top.” When it was Trump’s turn to rebut he in turn spoke about Clinton’s marriage using logos to try to tarnish Clinton’s credibility in sustaining a marriage. Both candidates expressed a lot of pathos, with their hand gestures and raising of their voices to create emotion and connection within the crowd. As per the norm in these types of debates, both of the candidates’ ethos were tarnished. Clinton’s Husband, and well Trump never had any ethos to begin with, but with the continuous reiteration of Trump’s poor choice of words about the female gender,his “rep” seemed to take a major blow. All in al I think Hillary dominated this debate and swayed some more voters to the democratic
side.
