1. Trump insists: I’m #winning
Two days after the debate, Donald Trump continued to tweet that he had won, citing online surveys so unreliable that Fox News warned its journalists to ignore them. Meanwhile, the first post-debate scientific polling emerged …
‘I didn’t want to embarrass her’
Did she win by 11 points – or 35?

3. Trump ditches the script
Since the debate, Trump has attacked a beauty queen’s weight, waggled his fingers at Bill Clinton’s infidelities, bragged about owning “great property in Europe” and gone on a Sheen-like Twitter tear about #winning. Why?
'He's swinging'
The control that helped Trump recover after August has escaped him since the debate. He's swinging wildly, blindly.

4. Michelle Obama on ‘birther’ bushwa
The first lady said “hurtful, deceitful questions” about Barack Obama’s birthplace “cannot be blamed on others or swept under the rug by an insincere sentence uttered at a press conference”. She did not name Trump.
5. ADL labels Pepe the Frog a hate symbol
Pepe the Frog has been labelled an “online hate symbol” by the Anti-Defamation League after his adoption as an icon of the white supremacist movement. Which just happened to coincide with the political rise of Donald Trump.
Why is Pepe wearing Trump’s haircut?
6. Sanders to Bern-storm for Clinton
Vermont senator Bernie Sanders appeared with Clinton in New Hampshire on Wednesday and planned a weeklong push to pitch young voters, especially, on the Democratic nominee.

The D women Senators have talked & we're concerned about Donald's weight. Campaign stress? We think a public daily weigh-in is called for.
