Many of them probably are republicans and won't admit they will vote for Hillary, but they will. I think a lot of republican women have never liked him at all, and last night pushed a lot more into that camp.

Barb Haag, a retired teacher of the emotionally disturbed, said Mr. Trump’s interruptions did not bother her. “Kids interrupt you all the time if they have a point to make,” she said.

Donald Trump is not a kid; he is a 70 year old man. It is crazy to excuse a grown man's behavior because he is behaving the same way children behave. In addition, normally, people admonish children when the interrupt people. Most children are told it is not polite to interrupt others. If it is wrong for a child to interrupt someone it should be wrong for a 70 year old man to interrupt someone.

They haven't seen this behavior from Trump during the past year?
There was nothing new about Trump's behavior. Think Ted C, Marco and Jeb.
What was on display last night was his IGNORNCE about policy and responsibilities of the POTUS.

and many more don't even watch campaign news other than the debates.

I find it easy to believe that there are millions of people out there for which this was their first look at him.

Just....lacking in critical thinking. I'm just glad democracy is superior to all other forms of governance.
