Trump completely unprepared and easily goaded into defending his taxes and birther crud for far too long when he should have brushed it off. Missed several hanging curveballs to hammer Clinton, but though it wasn't a great performance he avoided doing himself any real harm.
Clinton is a professional politician and she performed like you would expect, did really well moving past emails when they were brought up and turning focus back on trumps negatives. Subjects which the primary debates proved he couldn't help himself but get caught up in. She also ignored his constant interruptions and didn't let them distract her, which he should have seen early on and stopped, they just made him look silly.
Trumps yuge ego is tied up in people believing he is super successful and rich, so when brought up and used negatively he won't ever let it go, costing him time and throwing him off message when he needed to turn it quickly either back to clintons endless negatives or back to issues and discarding the attack on him as absurd and meaningless.
Nobody really won, nobody really lost.
Trump really needs to get himself together and prepare for the next debate, if he wants to these debates to help him much.
