well defense treaties and we will honor them. it is essential that america's word be good, and so i know that this campaign has caused some questioning and some worries on the part of many leaders across the globe. i've talked with a number of them. but i want to, on behalf of myself and i think on behalf of a majority of the american people say that, you know, our word is it's also important that we look at the entire global situation. there's no doubt that we have other problems with iran, but personally i'd rather deal with the other problems having put that lid on their nuclear program than still to be facing that. and donald never tells you what he would do. would he have start add -- started a war?

to iranian facilities we never had before, then he should tell us what his alternative would be, but it's like his plan to defeat isis. he said it's a secret plan, but the only secret is that he has no plan. so we need to be more precise in how we talk about these issues. people around the world follow our presidential campaigns so closely. trying to get hints about what we will can they rely on us? are we going to lead the world with strength and in accordance with our values? that's what i intend to do. i intend to be a leader of our country people were count on both here at home and around the world to make decisions that will further peace and prosperity, but also stand up to bullies, whether they're abroad or at home. we cannot let those who would

interfere with american interests and security -- >> your two minutes is -- >> -- any opportunities at ale. >> lester, one thing. >> quickly. >> i will go quickly. hillary will tell to you go to her website and read all about how to defeat isis which she could have defeated by never having it get going in the first place. right now it's getting tougher and tougher to defeat them because they're in more and more places, more and more states, more and more nigss and the a big problem. as far as japan is concerned i want to help all of our allies but we are losing billions and billions of dollars. we cannot be the policemen of the world. we cannot protect countries all over the world -- >> just a -- >> when they're not paying us what we need. >> just a few final questions here. >> and she doesn't say that because she has month business ability. we need heart, a lot of things but some basic ability and sadly she doesn't have that.

of during the last ten years, let's say, while she had great care of, but they weren't taken care of. if she ever wins this ray they won't be taken care of. >> mrs. clinton is the first female nominated. recently you said she doesn't have a presidential look. what did you mean by that? >> doesn't have the look or the stamina. i said she doesn't have the stamina, and i don't believe she does have the stamina to be need tremendous stamina. >> the quote was i just don't think she has the presidential look. >> wait a minute. you asked me a question. you have to be able to negotiate our trade deals. you have to be able to negotiate -- that's right, with japan. with saudi arabia. i mean, can you imagine, we're defending saudi arabia and with all of the money they have, we're defending them and they're not paying? all you have to do, speak to them. wait. you have so many different

do, and i don't believe that hillary has the stamina. >> let's let her respond. >> well, as soon as he travels to 112 countries and negotiates a peace deal, a cease-fire, a release of dissidents and an opening of new opportunities in nations around the world, or even spends 11 hours testifying in front of a congressional committee, he can talk to me about stamina. >> the world -- let me tell you -- let me tell you -- hillary has experience, but it's bad experience. we have made so many bad deals during the last -- so she's got experience that i agree but it's bad. bad experience. whether it's the iran deal that you're so in love with, where we gave them $150 billion back, whether it's the iran deal, whether it's anything you -- you almost can't name a good deal. i agree.

and this country can't afford to have another four years of that kind of experience. >> we are at the -- we are at the final question -- >> one thing, lester is -- >> the final question now. >> he tried to switch from looks to stamina. but this is a man who has called women pigs, slobs and dogs, and someone who has said pregnancy is an inconvenience to employers, who has -- >> that women don't deserve equal pay unless they do as good a job as men and one of the worst things he said was about a woman in a beauty contest, he loves beauty contests, supporting them and hangsing around them, and he called his woman miss piggy. then he called her miss housekeeping, because she was latina. donald, she has a name. >> where did you find this? >> her name is --

>> she has become a u.s. citizen and you can bet. >> oh, really. >> she's going to vote this nofr. >> okay, good. let me just tell you -- >> mr. trump, ten seconds and the final question. >> hillary is hitting me with tremendous commercials. some of it said in entertainment. some of it said somebody who's been very vicious to me. rosie o'donnell. i said tough things to her, she deserves it and nobody feels sorry for her. the truth is i was going to say something -- >> very to her family, and i said to myself, i can't do it. i just can't do it. it's inappropriate. it's not nice. but she spent hundreds of millions of dollars on negative ads on me, many of which are absolutely untrue and misrepresentations and i will tell you this, lester, it's not nice, and i don't -- and i don't deserve that, but the certainly not a nice thing that she's done.

and the only gratifying thing is i saw the polls come in today, and with all of that money -- >> we have to move on to the final question. >> with the money spent and the either winning or tied and i spent practically nothing. >> one of you will not win this election. my final question to you tonight, are you willing to accept the outcome as the will of the voters? secretary clinton? >> i support our democracy, and sometimes you win. sometimes you lose. but i certainly will outcome of this election. and i know donald's trying very hard to plant doubts about it, but i hope the people out there understand, this election is really up to you. it's not about us. so much as it is about you, and your families, and the kind of country and future you want. so i sure hope you will get out and vote, as though your future depended on it, because i think it does. >> mr. trump, quickly, same

again. we are a nation that is seriously troubled. we're losing our jobs. people are pouring into our country. the other day we were deporting 800 people and perhaps they passed the wrong button pressed the wrong button or perhaps worse than that, it was corruption, but these people we going to deport for good reason ended up becoming citizens, ended up becoming citizens. and it was 800 and now it turn tos out it might be 1,800 and they don't even >> will you accept -- >> i want to make in america great again. i'm goin' to be able to do it, i don't believe hillary will. the answer is i absolutely would support her. >> that concludes our debate for this evening. covered a lot of ground. we covered a lot, not everything. in st. louis is the next debate and october 19th, university of nevada, las vegas.

presidential debate is scheduled for october 4th at longwood university in farmville, virginia. my thanks to hillary clinton and to donald trump and to hofstra university for hosting us tonight. good night, everyone. well, the first presidential debate of 2016 among primary candidates is over and it appears everyone survived. beyond that, we were expecting a fiery hour and a half and as lester holt put it a moment ago, we got it. certainly spirited.

thought, matters of substance. some pretty deep talk on taxes and how to spend them. how to collect them. how to report your own. a lot of discussion about nato and iran. the way we come at treaties and the money that's been paid to iran. the war in iraq was, hoond was for it, who was against it was a matter of contention and the fight against the islamic state, ongoing fight against the islamic state a m division among the two candidates as well. of course, given the times we live, race and police relations were very much at the forefront, and secretary clinton and donald trump with different proposals for how to tackle that situation. nuclear pro liveration and containment by lester holt. and local policing tactics threatened to go national and

the conversation and foreign policy and defense and in the end couldn't get away without talking about beauty pageants, dogs, slobs and the miss piggy, because, well, it is is to 16. our coverage continues in just a moment. ? ? ? i'll never go down your road ? ? i'll find my way on my own ?

the stage cleared, hall emptying out here at hofstra on new york's long island in hempstead, new york. the candidatescorted away by the secret service. two more debates on fox. hope you'll be with us here and

satellite coverage. much more on your late local news on this fox station. for yeoh, i'm shepherd on your fox station in new york. a new option for expecting moms, ditch the epidural. this will make you laugh. >> plus how light therapy can rekindle your romance. fox 10 news starts now. you haven't done it in 30 years or 26 years or whatever you want to -- >> i have been a senator and a secretary of state. >> your husband signed nafta, which was one of the worst things that ever happened to the manufacturing industry. >> well, that is your opinion. that is your opinion. >> reporter: good evening, everybody, from hostra

tnight. the claws were out. there were a lot of barbs traded back and forth, but i am not sure the american voter really learned a lot. we learned that these two don't like each other very much, but it was an interesting 90 minutes, the back and forth, and it really started with donald trump saying okay, i'll release my taxes when you release your 30,000 e-mails, ms. clinton. take a listen. >> i will release my tax returns, against my lawyers' wishes, when she 33,000 e-mails that have been deleted. as soon as she releases them, i will release -- i will release my tax returns. >> well, i think you have just seen another example of bait and switch here. for 40 years, everyone running for president has released their tax returns. >> reporter: and they exchanged barbs on a bunch of other topics tonight, and again i think what we saw tonight, which was really

did, and it seemed that donald trump fell back on some old and tested lines that he had been using since the primary. take a listen to this exchange. >> and we have no leadership, and honestly that starts with secretary clinton. >> you have two minutes on the same question to defend tax increases on the wealthiest americans, secretary clinton. >> i have a feeling that by the end of this evening, i'm going to be blamed for everything at >> why not? >> the fact checkers are already having a field day. there have been misstatements attributed to both candidates tonight, hillary clinton and donald trump. they have also talked about what's been looming over this country for the better part of the last year or two, race relations between african-american community and police. >> he started it his whole

racist lie that our first black american president was not an american citizen. some of his supporters, some of the people that he was trying to bring into his fold apparently believed it or wanted it believe it. >> i got to watch you preparing for your first debates with barrack obama. you treated him with terrible disrespect. so when you try to act holier than thou, it really doesn't work. it really es that was the exchange over president obama's birth certificate and who really started the birther debate, whether it was operatives in hillary clinton's campaign back in '08. marc martinez with somebody who may be able to shed some light on who were winners or life-threatening injurieses in this. marc, i wasn't able to pick out

it was kind of a draw. i think americans are scratching their head, thinking, what was that? we didn't delve into a lot of issues dealing with the american people and solutions. we got a lot of charges and countercharges, but not a lot of solutions. >> i think a lot of people agree with you, including victor silva, a desert high school debate and speech coach. this may not have done a lot to bring in outside voters who were hoping to make a it? >> absolutely, at no point did they answer question questions, could trump be more composed, temperamental? could clinton keep answers short? i don't think she did that. they didn't do the hard part, which is trying to vote for them. >> so if you're trying to say who won this debate tonight, john made a point. i couldn't really see it. could you?

of brilliance, trump being able to remind voters that clinton's experience might not be the experience they want, but clinton able to bait trump into overtalking, overstepping his bounds. >> hillary, i just want to ask you this. you have been doing this for 30 years. why are you just thinking about these solutions right now? for 30 years, you have been doing it, and now you're just starting to think of solutions. >> well, actually that's >> i will bring -- excuse me, i will bring back jobs. you can't bring back jobs. >> well, actually, i have thought about this quite a bit. >> yeah, for 30 years. >> and i have -- well, not quite that long. >> there we talked about some of the barbs back and forth. as far as the way they have handled themselves, hillary clinton, a career politician has been at it a long time. she seemed to step back and let

does that play to their supporters and maybe people who have not decided yet? >> a little bit of political jujitsu, as it were, clinton able to take his questions and let him move. perhaps he wasn't able to give them the answer that they wanted. what are you going to tell your students tomorrow as they watched along with the estimated 100 million americans out there? what are you going to tell them out there tomorrow? >> you're not out there trying to make yourself you're trying to convince the voters n this election with so much controversy about either candidate, we need to make sure as debaters to tell them why to vote fwr us rather than against our opponent. >> thank you for victor for joining us tonight. we'll send it back now to john hook who is at hostra university in new york. >> thanks, marc, again a little bit all of head scratcher tonight.

the hype, i'm not sure exactly what we learned about the candidates. if positions were firm going in, i'm not sure that they have changed a lot. when we come back, we'll see how social media reacted to all of this tonight at hostra university. the debate, 90 mi it was anticipated. we'll see what folks are saying

users commenting about the debate tonight. on twitter -- the top hashtags were "debates" and "debate seven weeks to go until the election, arizona is included in

state with its 11 electoral college votes. a poll average shows trump ahead, but barely, 42%-40. the last time arizona selected a democrat was to help reelect bill clinton in 1996. also in play this year, new hampshire, its four electoral college votes could be critical, the latest poll showing clinton bernie sanders won there in the democratic primary. the latest polls gives florida to trump, 47-40%. who could forget bush-gore, the drama in 2000? and then there's ohio, always a tos up with its 18 electoral votes, polling shows clinton close there, 43-47%, and no ever republican has won the

and michigan seems close, polling showing trump ahead, 48-45%, but michigan has voted democratic in every presidential election since 1992. the bottom line is, these battleground states have tightened, and the margin now is within the margin of error in many of them, so we are still in a campaign that is really a toss-up. tonight, will it do much to change that? i am not sure. how social media reacts to it could play perceptions in these campaigns are moving forward. anybody picking a winner or life-threatening injuri loser here? >> we did see social media blowing up tonight, especially twitter, the main hash tags were debate and debate night. these red clusters where people are tweeting the most about the debate tonight, arizona, over here, of course, california, and

area, also bahamas and jamaica. we want to show you this from phoenix now, this one says she is struggling, reaching for words because her lies aren't sticking. that was the hash tag debate night. this guy says lester holt, debate night, wrap it up there, so he was ready for this one to be over with. this one says i can't imagine being surprised by anything in the debate tonight, maybe a rap battle, people hav this one finally says the question about preventing i.s.i.s. homegrown attacks is a hard question with no good answer, and neither candidate has one. a few of the tweets we pulled tonight, but again, everybody seemed to be tweeting about this live was it was going on, and also the fact checking that hillary clinton brought up which was happening live during this debate, which may be the first time that we have seen that. back to you, john. >> yeah, marc, let's talk about this a little bit about

i think there was such an expectation going into this, and it does remind me a little bit of a super bowl. everybody anticipates the matchup, they think it's going to be a great game, and then when the game gets going, everybody is so cautious that the ball doesn't move down the field very much. it's kind of stuck in between the 20-yard lines. i think we got a little bit of it tonight. obviously when donald trump, it started to get a little bit testy, he went back to his tried and true attacks, rolling eyes. and hillary clinton, towards the end she seemed pretty perturbed with him. they had made a decision before this that he would call her secretary clinton, and she would call him mr. trump. that devolved too. she started calling him donald. so some of the rules of engagement were obviously left on the floor, and they kind of went at it. but again, i am not sure the american people got a great deal out of that 90 minutes.

that hype, i just wonder if they are going, well, what was that about? >> it didn't seem like we learned anything new tonight, john. >> i agree. >> i want to ask you a question, what dung about lester holt's moderating here? it seemed like he lost control early on, but he couldn't really get it back. i don't think he was in control tonight. >> i think he was in a tough spot. i think he wanted to vanish there and let them do thing. there does come a point where the moderator has to step and move them back on point, and i think he lost control. sne that the debate meandered and we weren't talking about issues that a lot of meshes talk about, their jobs, struggling with income, their family and kids, all of that. >> sometimes we heard people in the crowd reacting to this. they weren'that either. >> yeah. marc, we are going to have more
