Syrian Crisis

Taxes
Russia
Hillary Clinton hints towards Donald Trump’s alleged interest in Russia and Russian President Vladimir Putin’s support for his vested interests. Clinton alleged that Russians are hacking into American citizens’ Twitter accounts to influence the election.
Donald Trump countered her by saying that the hackings are only talked about and maybe staged. He said that he does not have interest in business in Moscow and relations with Putin and US, he says, need to be better.
Islamaphobia
A Muslim woman asked Trump how he plans to tackle the hatred towards Muslim-Americans.
While Donald Trump says that the problem is that the terror need to be acknowledged as Islamic, Hillary Clinton said that the jihadist terror should not be blamed on the religion.
