Donald Trump got lost in the space-time continuum when he claimed that Hillary Clinton has been fighting ISIS her whole adult life.
Which led to one of the many times Hillary Clinton appealed to the fact checkers.

In the end, it came down to temperament and stamina.
“I have a much better temperament than she does,” Donald Trump said. “I think my strongest asset, maybe by far, is my temperament. I have a winning temperament. I know how to win.”
