Chrissy Teigen's Tweets Won The Presidential Debate

She probably should have moderated, tbh.

Chrissy Teigen: famous supermodel, cookbook author, badass mother... political commentator?

Teigen live-tweeted the first presidential debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump like only she could ― with clever insights and sass to spare.

From the very beginning, it was clear that she was in the right frame of mind.

After priming us for a wonderful night of live, hopefully tipsy commentary, Teigen started with a few choice tweets directed at Trump.

Teigen hasn’t shied away from criticizing the GOP nominee in the past ― and she let her followers know exactly how she felt about his debate performance.

it went against a very against police judge, guys

'it's bad, i have property there" oh dear god

Teigen then praised Clinton’s ability to keep her cool.

“She is much better than I,” she wrote. “I would match whatever depth of low he wants to fight at.”

Now that’s a debate we would pay good money to see.

i wish she would call him out on his blatant racism, but i guess we are rolling with the "when they go low, we go high" thing.

she is much better than I. I would match whatever depth of low he wants to fight at.

She also pleaded with Clinton to call Trump out on his birtherism ― which the Democratic nominee did, mere minutes later, to Teigen’s delight.

YES

Then, she made this apt comparison...

And became understandably frustrated with Trump’s talking points...

I HAVE A MUCH BETTER TEMPERAMENT OH MY GOD

— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) September 27, 2016

he can lie all he wants. average is about 18 lies a day. saying he has a better temperament than hillary is actually bat shit bonkers.

HER CAMPAIGN VIDEOS ARE LITERALLY JUST HIM SPEAKING

After the debate was over, Teigen tuned into Fox News ― you know, to be a fair and balanced voter. Needless to say, she probably won’t be doing that again.

oh my god i just turned it to fox news to see their view and i feel like i'm taking a bath in fire ants

Editor’s note: Donald Trump regularly incites political violence and is a serial liar, rampant xenophobe, racist, misogynist and birther who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims — 1.6 billion members of an entire religion — from entering the U.S.
