Washington Week with The Atlantic

Campaigns build on debate momentum & Congress overrides veto

23m 27s

In the days after Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump's first debate, Trump faces continued questions about his treatment of women, including a former Miss Universe who says Trump called her "Miss Piggy." Clinton had prepared for the debate by readying attacks on Trump's vulnerabilities. Trump and Clinton will face off again in nine days, but the two VP candidates will debate next week
