Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton did not shake hands at the start of the second presidential debate Sunday night.

After a tape surfaced Friday of Trump describing how he kissed women even if they didn’t care to be kissed, how he grabbed them by the p***y, the mood had substantially changed in the election. Republicans had disavowed Trump and there had been a lot of speculation about whether the candidates would shake hands, per tradition.

They did not.

  1. I would not shale his hand either

  2. I wouldn’t touch that hand either. What knows what he’s touched.

    Can we get a medical explanation for Trump sniffing? This needs an explanation.

  4. Hillary didn’t offer her hand, which was a clear snub. It is probably less of a snub than he merits, actually.

    Dishonest Don didn’t offer his hand, either. I expect he didn’t offer his hand so that she could not make a more obvious snub by refusing to shake his hand.
