The blew my mind and but nobody else seemed to think it a big deal moment of the night:From the Vox Transcript:

Trump: … Douglas MacArthur, George Patton spinning in their graves when they see the stupidity of our country. So we’re now fighting for mosul that we had. All she had to do is stay there. Now we’re going in to get it. But you know who is big winner in mosul is going to be after we eventually get it? And the only reason they did it is because she is running for the office of president, and they want to look tough. They want to look good.

He violated the red line in the sand. And he made so many mistakes. Made all mistakes. That’s why we have the great migration. But she wanted to look good for the election. So they’re going in.

Later on she calls him on it -

Clinton: … I’m just amazed that he seems to think that the Iraqi government and our allies and everybody else launched the attack on mosul to help me in this election. But that’s how Donald thinks, you know.

So the Republican candidate for President just charged that the timing of the attack on Mosul, the largest offensive action against ISIS to date, was scheduled to interfere with his Presidential campaign, and it wasn’t even note worthy moments enough to get a call out from the press?
