BROWN COUNTY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Wearing pins and buttons to show their support, Brown County Republicans gathered in Allouez, while Democrats watched the first of three Presidential debates in Downtown Green Bay.
Margaret O’Toole Somenske is a Trump supporter, watching the debate at Brown County GOP headquarters and talking to WLUK.
“She’s trying to bait him, but I don’t feel it’s working”
Rich Langan, the First Vice Chair of the Democratic Party of Brown County, took in the debate at party headquarters.
“Trump is a reality show personality. Clinton is a real person”
Langan added that Clinton handled the debate well and said she proved she should be the next Commander and Chief.
“She’s so uniquely qualified for this job. She’s handling the debate like I thought she would”
O’Toole-Somenske sees it differently.
“She is a pathological liar so how could you ever believe anything she says”
She thought Trump showed leadership and poise during the debate.
But she also said ahead of the next debate she believes there are some things Trump needs to do to win over those who are undecided. Like release his tax statements.
Langan says he doesn’t think Clinton has anything to improve on.
The candidates will go head to head again on Sunday, Oct. 9 and then again on Wednesday, Oct. 19.
The Vice Presidential candidates also face off in a debate that is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 4.
