IN A CONTENTIOUS TOWN-HALL DEBATE IN ST LOUIS, DONALD TRUMP AND HILLARY CLINTON WENT HEAD TO HEAD. HERE'S WHAT THEY SAID:
"Yes, I'm very embarrassed by it. I hate it, but it's locker room talk, and it's one of those things. I will knock the hell out of ISIS. We're gonna defeat ISIS." - Donald Trump dismisses a tape recording of him boasting about sexually assaulting women.
"If you look at Bill Clinton, mine were words and his was action." - Trump says his boasting about sexually assaulting women pales in comparison to the sex scandals of former president Bill Clinton.
"I said, starting back in June, that he was not fit to be president and commander in chief, and many Republicans and independents have said the same thing." - Hillary Clinton seeks to exploit the growing rift between Trump and leading Republicans.
"Because you'd be in jail." - Trump responds to Clinton's remark that it's a good thing that someone with his temperament isn't in charge of US laws.
"I respect his children, his children are incredibly able and devoted and I think that says a lot about Donald."- Clinton responds after being asked to name one thing she respects about Trump.
"She doesn't quit, she doesn't give up, I respect that. I tell it like it is. She's a fighter ... I consider that to be a very good trait." - Trump responds to the same question about Clinton.
