Did Hillary Clinton really win the debates

[Pericles]

Yes she did, all of them were clear wins for her, please stop the revisionist takes. She didn't run a perfect campaign but she did well in the debates (and Trump did badly), this is very clear and can be seen with how the post-debate polls showed she had won all three and that she surged from an even race to a near landslide poll lead (admittedly due in part to other factors and soon mostly undone by the Comey letter, but there haven't been many polling surges like the one she had historically). Now perhaps she could have won even more or won in a different way or done something different but to call it a loss or a draw is not true, she did win the debates and won them clearly so it's hard to see how that aspect of the campaign could realistically be improved much-it was the rest of her campaign and other events that ultimately cost her the presidency.
