Tax returns. Abcs Stephanie Ramos is at Hofstra University on long island, new york, where it all went down. Stephanie, good morning. Reporter kendis and diane, good morning. This may have been the highest rated reality show ever. Hillary clinton and donald trump disagreeing over race, jobs, terrorism and temperament. The candidates, Hillary Clinton and donald trump, walking out on the debate stage shaking hands and taking a fighting stance. Their first general election faceoff turning contentious and personal quick. I have a feeling that by the end of this evening, im going to be blamed for everything thats ever happened. Why not. Why not, yeah, why not. Reporter it was a spirited debate full of interruptions. Donald, i know you live in your own reality but that is not the facts. But you have no plan. Oh, i do. Reporter slamming each other on issues like climate change, trade, to stop and the argument, its a form of racial profileing. No, the argument is that we have to take the guns away from these people that have them and that are bad people that shouldnt have them. Stop and frisk was found to be unconstitutional and in part because it was ineffective. Reporter trump continuing to blast clinton on her stamina and strength but clinton shutting down that line of attack. Well, as soon as he travels to 112 countries and negotiates a peace deal, a ceasefire, a release of dissidents, an opening of new opportunities and nations around the world or even spends 11 hours testifying in front of a congressional committee, he can talk to me about stamina. Reporter this marked the first time both clinton and trump shared the same stage side by side as they try to prove to voters theyre the best person to lead the country. You decided to stay home and thats okay. I think donald just this debate, and, yes, i did, and you know what else i prepared for, i prepared to be president , and i think thats a good thing. [ applause ] reporter one debate down and two more to go. The second president ial debate between Hillary Clinton and donald trump is set for october 9th in st. Louis, missouri. Kendis, diane. And, stephanie, what were the campaigns saying after the debate in the spin room . Reporter so right after the debate some Campaign Aides for the clinton camp came into the spin room and they were not hold the debate went last night saying that donald trump was unhinged. They called him unhinged during the debate and they also said that he was easily provoked as well as totally unprepared. Senior Campaign Officials felt trump was quickly rattled, even more than they expected him to be. And normally you have those the spin room, not normally that you have a president ial candidate himself, but trump talked about what he said he didnt address on stage right there in the spin room. Whats that all about . Reporter yeah, kendis, and you said it. This is something we havent seen before, but its been an unconventional convention. Donald trump walking into the spin room last night and telling abc news he didnt bring up bill clintons infidelities because he says Chelsea Clinton was in the debate hall last night. But heres what trump had to say last night in the spin room right after the debate. Here it is. I thought it was great. Wanted to say, i got it out other than the transgressions of bill because, you know, she takes all these commercials spending literally hundreds of millions of dollars on commercials and theyre lies. Theyre lies. But i thought and i didnt want to do it with chelsea who i think is a very wonderful young lady. I didnt want to say what i was going to say with chelsea in the room. Reporter unclear if a sign that trump about how trump felt he did last night, a he was supposed to go to last night he opted out of. Back over to you, guys. Oh, well, thats pretty controversial there, and Hillary Clinton did go to a rally right afterwards. Stephanie ramos in hampstead, new york, this morning. Stephanie, thank you. And early polls do indicate that most voters believe Hillary Clinton won that debate. But reaction was mixed across the country with many people sticking with the same candidate that they supported ahead of the debate. Its obvious that hillary won that debate. I think that trump was a liar and a person that is trying to divide this country. Was very robotic. Donald was very appealing, a man of action, real, definitely came across as a change agent. Flat out she won. I mean, unbelievable. Trump had everything to say wrong. He was so nervous, he was scripted. He wasnt as talented as he said he was. The reaction from many voters who watched the debate but those people already had the going into it, and as you saw there in stephanies piece from the beginning trump and clinton dropped the pleasantries and came out swinging. So just how did each candidate fare according to the analysts . Well, for more on that, lets turn to abc news political director rick klein. Rick. Diane and kendis, a tale of two donald trumps. In the first half of the debate, he was able to parry the attacks from Hillary Clinton and turn them back on her, make it about the broader argument around the status quo turning all of her attacks into an attack on the political establishment. That was the good side from donald the bad side coming out later in the debate when shes he ends up feuding with her over her fitness for the office, her look for the office, and just, generally speaking, you saw a candidate for whom is able to get under the skin. And i think Hillary Clinton is able to walk away from this debate saying i know where the weak spots are. I know how to prosecute the case. Donald trump on particularly shaky ground when he talked about the Birther Movement or when he talked about what he said in the past about the iraq war, a false claim that he always opposed the iraq war. I think two candidates showing that they know how to prosecute the case. No one, though, closing the deal. Diane and kendis. All right, our thanks to rick klein there. Well, Hillary Clinton is calling the debate an amazing experience. Shortly after getting off the stage, she stopped by a nearby Debate Watch Party with her husband greeting more than 500 supporters with her hands in the air. Now, clinton is campaigning in raleigh, North Carolina, today, and this evening Donald Trump Holds a rally in melbourne, florida. And hes also touting his own performance on socl media as well. Meanwhile, there was another president ial candidate not at the debate. That was green partys dr. Jill stein. She was escorted actually off hofstras campus for not having the right security credentials. Stein then took to twitter to get her message out. Now, stephanie kind of mentioned earlier that clinton and trumps second debate is on sunday, october 9th. The Vice President ial debate is october 4th.

Not so much for the eastern seaboard, though, where roads are likely to be wet today as well as up and around the great lakes and central arizona. If youre most likely in charlotte, miami and chicago. Were going to return to our top story right now and Hillary Clinton and donald trump squaring off last night in a fiery debate. Some of the exchanges were especially contentious. The candidates made bold claims about several issues but not everything they said was entirely accurate so lets go to abcs byron pitts for a fact check. Reporter these are two candidates accused of stretching the truth in the past and they went at each other hard over honesty. Perhaps the most intense who started the birther campaign, the lie that lingered for years that president obama was not born in the u. S. Trump says it wasnt him. He simply cleared it up. I was the one that got him to produce the birth certificate and i think i did a good job. Secretary clinton also fought it. Reporter our Fact Checkers found that statement by trump is false. The two clashed over trumps wealth. He said his father once gave him a loan for a Million Dollars to start his business. Clinton said it was 14 million. Don and thats all to his benefit. He started his business with 14 million borrowed from his father. Reporter our abc news Fact Checkers concluded yes and no. In addition to the million he admits to a casino license disclosure from 1985 shows that trump did take 14 million in loans from his fathers companies. On the issue of Nuclear Weapons he has said repeatedly that he didnt care if other nations got Nuclear Weapons, japan, reporter that fact, well, its also a yes and no. Donald trump has taken different positions on the issue. Another contentious exchange, comments trump has made in the past about women. Someone who has said pregnancy is an inconvenience to employers, who has i never said that. Reporter according to our Fact Checkers that comment by trump was also false. In the end the only question that remains, did either candidate change the minds of any voters . We wont know that fact until byron pitts, abc news, new york. Well, next up the Vice President ial candidates, well, they have their debate a week from tonight. But first tim kaine and mike pence will have their say later this morning on Good Morning America. You dont want to miss that. A young man rescued after more than a week at sea is due to arrive in boston later today. Nathan carman was in an freighter off marthas vineyard. Carman told authorities he was on a fishing trip with his mother when their boat sank but his mother disappeared and the coast guard has now called off the search for her. The Washington Monument is closed indefinitely because of ongoing problems with its elevator. It keeps breaking down and the problem started before the earthquake several years ago. That forced major structural repairs on the monument. The monument wont reopen until that elevator can be replaced. All right, time for sports now and there was a track meet that kind of looked more like a Football Game last night. Yes, the highstoring highlights now from espn. Good morning, america. Hes kenny. Im neil. Here we are, monday night football, falcons already up in the third quarter. Matt ryan, a little fake, tevin coleman, nobody got him. And hes going places. Down to the 6. Falcons will score.

Quite a year for cleveland. Congrats. All right, up next, its the president ial debate time in the pulse. Question, what was donald trump doing that got plenty of peoples attention. What were building together. And could this happen again . I was given warfarin in the hospital, but wondered, was this the best treatment for me . I spoke to my doctor and she told me about eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots. But eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Knowing eliquis had both. Turned around my thinking. Rious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made switching to eliquis right for me. Ask your doctor if its right for you. The things that i consume on a daily basis, a lot of it is very acidic. The enamel on my teeth was actually weakening. The whiteness wasnt there as much. My teeth didnt look as healthy as others. My dentist said that pronamel would help fight against that erosion that foods and drinks were causing. So it was really important to start using the pronamel. You have to worry about. Pronamel is now giving me the confidence to know that im doing the right thing. So its nice to know that its as simple as that. . Ugh. Heartburn. Sorry maam. No burning here. Try new alkaseltzer heartburn relief gummies. They dont taste chalky and work fast. Mmmm. Incredible. Can i try . She doesnt have heartburn. New alkaseltzer heartburn relief gummies. . It is time for the pulse. And as you might expect, it is all about last nights president ial debate. Yes, so Hillary Clinton and donald trump on stage for the first time. While many millions monitored the proceedings on social media so what moment got twitter going the most . Candidates plans to defeat isis. Trumps comments about the policing policy stop and frisk came in second, and the most tweeted moment of the night came when trump said he has a good temperament. So, apparently this was the most tweeted about debate ever. At the time during it 62 on twitter were tweeting about this debate. Breaking records all around. And its always interesting to see what kind of issues social media will focus on. Making the rounds this morning. Trumps sniffles during the debate completely lit up twitter and social media. Take a look. What theyre doing so unless an example of mexico system, agreement. Is that okay . Good. She made the agreements better. People that are unbelievably happy and that love me. The montage, so the sniffle quickly became popular. Someone even started a twitter account called trumps sniff with some pretty amusing memes, as well. I didnt even notice it, but apparently colbert also made reference to it, so lots of people talking about trumps sniffle this morning. And the debate came after about 18 months of campaigning, so you would think most of the basics about the candidates are pretty well known. Yep. Like, say, how their names are spelled. Exactly, and Hillary Clinton has been out there for several years. So take a look at this. Thats where the ticket comes in. This . Tickets to the event spelled Hillary Clintons name with just one l, the hillary. She spells it with two, of course. Now, the organizers say the mistake happened only on commemorative tickets, not on official ones. No word yet on who produced those commemorative tickets, but maybe theyll be collectors items now even more so. Perhaps. Lets hope nobody at Hofstra University where the event was held.

The candidates sparred on everything from the economy and isis to email as well as tax returns. Clinton hit trump on his Business Record wealth as well as temperament. He accused her of being a typical politician behind a string of failed policies. I have a feeling that by the end of this evening, im going to be blamed for everything thats ever happened. Why n. Why not. Yeah, why not. Theyre both heading south today. Clinton campaigning in North Carolina while trump holds a rally in florida. Looking at todays weather, there may be showers and storms throughout the day in the southeast and some early showers in the northeast. Also a few showers in arizona today. And finally, the late night comics did some very quick work last night. Yeah, they were all over the now, after the matt lauer incidents the last thing the Debate Commission wanted was to be biased against either side. So they caved. They gave hillary a shorter podium and let donald trump stop and frisk lester holt. Of course, it did not take long for one of these two candidates to tell a lie. Donald, its good to be with you. Trump held his ground and insisted the whole thing could be cleared up if someone would just call sean hannity. I then spoke to sean hannity. Nobody called sean hannity. If somebody would call up sean hannity. Sounds like a commercial for an irish plumber. Just call sean hannity when your pipes are full of crap. Trump sounded like he was fighting off a cold with cocaine. We have to renegotiate our trade deals and lester, mexico. He sounded like the coked up no, no, no, you guys, i got it. I know we can fix the entire economy. Lets all go together. Lets buy a boat. Yeah. Itll be great. There was actually 1,000 people in the audience tonight and they were instructed not to applaud or cheer during the debate. Then people watching were like, what about sobbing . Can we quietly sob . In the end, there was really only one word that summed up how this whole debate, this whole election feels and donald trump captured it. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. It was a long 90 minutes but the results are in and not a single voter changed their mind, so a huge waste of time. They did some quick work. They did, indeed, and they will have more to work with next week when the Vice President s debate. That happens a whack from today. Well look forward to that and thats whats making news this morning.
