mate mike pence on how to deal with the situation in syria. that led to a lot of chatter about whether there was more division at the top of gop tickets and many maybe have thought before, but pence later tweeting after the debate his support and congratulations for trump and what he said that he won the debate. also that moment that you played at the top of the segment, trump calls himself a gentleman as he and they get out about who would answer questions from the audience. trump said hillary would be in jail if he were to make it into the white house over her use of private e-mail server and debate over her e-mail. as far as topics, differed on whatever social media channel you were watching last night. on facebook the five topics were isis and trump's tapes and treatment of women, government, ethics and health care. on twitter totally different topics. we saw conversation around

terrorism, foreign affairses and the economy which didn't get a lot of play nearly as much for sure as it did in the first debate. also health care and guns were front and enter on twitter as far as the conversations. and as trump has through campaign season he dominated on social media throughout the night even though he himself wasn't tweeting, he certainly got the bulk of the mentions. he took up 64% of the conversation to clinton's 36% although she gained more twitter followers as we went through the debate. on facebook, trump leading with 76% of the conversations to clinton 24%. so certainly there was no shortage of things to talk about as the campaigns ramped up and the rhetoric becomes more heated, that's for sure. nicole: you broke it down for us very well and we enjoyed all the topics. this was the most tweeted about in the 2016 campaign overall so

i wonder if that will actually resinate and bring it back to the polls for the voters. foxbusiness.com reporter, thank you so much. lauren, not too much talk about the fly that landed on hillary. presidential fly. lauren: she really moved on from that, that was amazing. twitter fly. how did this second presidential debate stack up in history, was it the first personal debate ever. we will take a look, which presidential historian and let's check index futures. nasdaq futures up 14. you're watching fbn:am, first look at morning markets and breaking news what powers the digital world. communication.

and vicious debate ever? we have doug from washington to find out where this debate stacks up in history. doug, good morning, have we ever seen anything like that this. [laughter] >> i don't think we've ever seen a debate like this before but we have seen an election like this before. in 1884 the american people thought, what have we got, they had to choose between a corrupt politician that took bribes and the new york misogynist and law partner shared sexual favors who became pregnant. nicole: who won that one? >> well, i tell you the new york misogynist won that wasn't and when one out the law partners, he raised the daughter when she became a teenager she fell in love and when she turned 21, she married in the white house.

she was the first american history and that was rover cleveland. nicole: we are going back to 1881. lauren: good story. [laughter] nicole: i don't know if you're trying to make some sort of correlation between hillary clinton and trump there. trump would win based on that. when you talk about last night and what we saw, what more modern times in the 60's and 70's, what comparisons can you make that, doug? >> the second debates really matter. that was the debate where ronald reagan hit his home rub on the age issue, that was the debate where gerald ford challenged the soviet of eastern europe and failed badly and that was the debate that barack obama came back against mitt romney. i saw a great comeback for donald trump.

lauren: you did? >> my daughters were going away in their iphone going up hillary, what's the charge of the 12-year-old. they looked it up. that's not true. they found the actual audio. they go for it. i have that audio right at the top because the news media is not reporting that. they're saying that is a fact-check -- nicole: that she was laughing when she protected that rapist. >> that's right. >> as we go out and think about the second debate, what's the take away? >> this was a tough debate. the take away that the pundits were all wrong that donald trump was right to counterpunch. he needed to do that to put it into focus. it was the difference between words which were horrible and deeds which also had not been apologized for.

you think about it, all paula jones all ever wanted was an apology. she didn't even want an apology for what hillary clinton had don't. she wanted an apology for his campaign accusing her of wanting something that she hadn't wanted. nicole: i wanted to ask you quickly. jessica she's a democratic strategist, she talked about the far how far aahead hillary is at this point and you said the second debate is important and trump gained some ground. how likely it is that someone is behind that they take it over and win the whole election. we are 29 days away? >> well, it happened in the car -- carter-ford election where carter was ahead. carter was stunned and didn't believe he had lost.

that's how quickly it can turn. lauren: john kennedy says, nothing just happens, people make it happen. use that statement for this election right now? >> well, the fact that all of the things that are coming out in october. i mean, it is amusing to hear the clintons and hollywood teaming up to lecture the american people on how not to objectify women, so it's not an accident that access hollywood happened to find that tape now and there will be more things that we will find on both sides that will come out. that's politics. kennedy is right. they're made to happen and there's going to be some things made to happen in the coming days. so a lot of excitement ahead. lauren: indeed. thank you so much, doug. nicole: most exciting since 1884. we appreciate that you're watching fbn:am. lauren: yes, indied.

we are going to hand it to mornings with maria to take us through the next couple of hours. great debate last night, maria bartiromo. maria: happy monday. i'm maria bartiromo, it is monday october 10th, columbus day, top stories 6:00 a.m. on the east coast. flood fest in st. louis, the presidential candidates did not shake hands as the debate got underway fireworks from the very start. hillary clinton reiterated her position that donald trump is not fit to serve as commander in chief. >> we have seen throughout the campaign. it's awfully good that someone with his temperament is not in charge of the country. >> bowz you'd be in jail. maria: her foreign policy record.
