Trump Clinton Mexico Wall Viral Meme Opening 2016 Debate T-Shirt Released

Sep 27, 2016

A viral T-shirt based on the first presidential debate between Donald Trump and Hilary Clinton has exploded across the internet in the hours following the event. The candidates discussed a range of controversial topics and are set to do battle again on October 9.

Dublin, Ireland - September 26, 2016 /PressCable/ —

The first presidential debate between Donald Trump and Hilary Clinton took place last night between 9pm and 10:30pm and Trump’s infamous wall remark has already been jumped on by a trending T-shirt. Trump and Clinton fired verbal shots at each other in the first of a series of debates, with a number of controversial topics covered as Lester Holt of NBC Nightly News moderated at Hofstra University, in Hempstead New York, including the now infamous wall proposed by Trump.

The t-shirts can be viewed at: http://letsgolook.at/TrumpWall.

Divided into six segments of 15 minutes each, the debate focused on some of the most important and controversial topics, including the ever present threat of ISIS and the increasingly prevalent immigration conversation.

Each segment was opened with a question from Lester Holt, with both candidates getting two minutes to respond, with the duelling debaters then getting the chance to respond to each other. It was live streamed on major news networks, including being offered for free on YouTube and Twitter, so more people than ever before could be a part of the historic occasion.

One of the topics was the wall that Donald Trump claimed he would build should he win the election. He originally emphasises that it would be impenetrable, physical, tall, powerful, and beautiful, covering 1,000 miles, with natural obstacles taking care of the rest of the Mexican border.

He has since gone on to say that a wall is better than fencing, and much more powerful, which rules out any cheaper option like iron fence posts that could be implemented across the border. Because of this demand for powerful materials, but the vast expense involved in such a big project, concrete would have to be used.

Trump said: “I would build a great wall, and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me, and I build them very inexpensively.” He went on to claim that the cost of the wall would be around $10 billion, and elaborated on his plans further in the live debate.

The viral T-shirts picked up on this to hugely popular effect, and have fans eagerly anticipating the next debate between Clinton and Trump. The t-shirts can be viewed at: https://politicalfunny.org.

Philippines offers US$786,000 bounty for ‘dangerous’ senator wanted by ICC

The Philippine government put a bounty on Friday on the head of the top enforcer of ex-president Rodrigo Duterte’s bloody anti-drug crackdown, nearly a year after the International Criminal Court (ICC) ordered his arrest.

The bounty comes just over a month before...

Japan’s university defence bids surge as post-war taboo fades amid China concerns

Japanese universities and other educational institutions more than doubled their applications for defence ministry research funding this year to a record 291, up from 123 last year, as Tokyo moves to strengthen its defences. The increase is the clearest sign yet that academia’s decades-long resistance to military-linked work is easing. The bids accounted for more than half the record 560 applications received by the ministry this year, up from 340 last year, with the rest coming from public...

Local figure skating competition Halloween Cup goes international

For its second year, recreational figure skating competition SM Skating Halloween Cup, hosted several international participants for the first time, making the local contest into an international meet. “So this is the second year we hosted the Halloween Cup. This year, the difference is it's an international competition. The first year that we hosted it we had over 100 participants, but this year almost 180 participants,” explained Nikki Cheng, president of the Philippine Skating Union. More than 180 figure skaters from the Philippines, Mongolia, Thailand, and the United States, participated in the event, which was held from October 16 to 18 at SM Mall of Asia in Pasay City. Wearing various costumes, from Disney princesses to K-pop idols, the young skaters showcased their skating skills and fun routines. For the first, the competition also joins the Ice Skating Institute Asia (ISIAsia) Championship Series. According to the competition, the event was not just a “thrilling Halloween spectacle” but it “champions SM Active's mission to make sports accessible, nurture young talent, and inspire more Filipinos to embrace an active lifestyle”. “We feel that it is very important for its contribution to grassroots development. We see that the sport is continually growing. In this event we get to discover who are the ones that we would bring into the national developmental [program]. This is a recruitment stage for us,” Nikki shared. Check out the photos from this year's event in the gallery below: Love this content?

Letran edges San Sebastian, keeps Stags winless in NCAA

MANILA, Philippines — Colegio de San Juan de Letran denied San Sebastian College-Recoletos a chance to crack into the win column, escaping with a 91-89 victory in the NCAA Season 102 men’s basketball tournament on Friday afternoon at the Filoil EcoOil Centre in San Juan City. The Knights improved to 7-3 and remained atop Group B, while the Golden Stags dropped to 0-10. Unlike their first-round meeting, which Letran dominated 99-62, the Knights were forced to work much harder in the rematch. With Letran leading 86-83 and 1:04 remaining in the game, Vincent Segovia drained a fadeaway jumper and Christian Ricio followed with a layup to give San Sebastian an 87-86 edge. Aaron Buensalida immediately answered with a layup of his own with 38 seconds remaining, and Nathaniel Montecillo converted both free throws to put Letran back in front, 89-87. Niel Castro then tied the game at 89-all with a jumper with seven seconds left. But Letran head coach Allen Ricardo drew up a final play for Jimboy Estrada, who knocked down a jumper with two seconds remaining to seal the 91-89 win. “Of course, during the dying seconds of the game, you go to your go-to guy. I trusted Jimboy and he delivered,” Ricardo said. “We had lapses in the game. San Sebastian also improved its transition threes, and we became a bit lousy. So in those final seconds, we went to Jimboy.” Chad Gammad led Letran with 23 points, five rebounds, and three assists. Buensalida stepped up in the absence of veteran Kevin Santos, finishing with 21 points and six rebounds. Estrada added 14 points, while Froilan Reyes chipped in 13. Caesleyh Bacani paced San Sebastian with 24 points, while John Ynot and Segovia contributed 16 and 13 points, respectively.
