Were these the three hours that upset Trump’s campaign?
Jon Sopel, the BBC correspondent for Washington, has written a very long essay explaining impartially how Donald Trump's campaign has recently derailed. Especially if you are interested in American politics, it is well worth the read. It is still worth skimming through, even if American politics leaves you cold; if only because they affect you indirectly, no matter where you live or your nationality.

He was jovial. Playful. Skittish almost. He was pouting for the cameras and was pulling teasing faces: “Shall I come down the stairs or not?” “Should I, shouldn’t I?”
