NBC’s Commander In Chief forum was a bit of a disaster according to most observers, with Matt Lauer taking most of the blame for his unbalanced treatment of each candidate during the night. “The man has very strong control over a country”, Trump said. “I find it frustrating, but it’s part of the landscape we live in”.

Some of the criticism comes amid an ongoing debate over the way that the media is covering Clinton and Trump overall – as her supporters in particular have escalated criticism that she is being challenged on the tiniest of details while her Republican rival is being graded on a curve.

With just two months until Election Day, national security has emerged as a centerpiece issue in the White House race.

He is also a deputy assistant secretary of state during the Obama administration. And for the first time, he opened the door to granting legal status to people living in the US illegally who join the military. “And I could see myself working that out”. It’s called playing the refs and I think, you know, it’s something that Democrats are doing right now because they have a press corps that is sympathetic to the idea of stopping Trump.I think they’re a little upset Matt Lauer wasn’t on reservation for that anti-Trump crusade that they’re trying to whip up.

The Republican also repeated an incorrect claim that he was opposed to the war with Iraq before the invasion.

The initial with Trevor Noah took a straight forward take on the night, giving Lauer some hefty criticism for focusing on Hillary Clinton’s emails instead of her national security policies and for allowing Donald Trump to essentially skirt by with his flimsy position on the war in Iraq. He replied, “Yeah, I guess so”.
