At each other from the start: Clinton, Trump debateHEMPSTEAD, N.Y. — Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump tangled Monday night over trade, taxes and how to bring good-paying jobs back to the United States as they opened their first face-to-face presidential debate. Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump gestures toward Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton during the presidential debate at Hofstra University in Hempstead, N.Y., Monday, Sept. 26, 2016. Trump panned policies that he said have led to American jobs being moved overseas, in part because of international trade agreements that Clinton has supported. For Clinton and Trump, the first of three debates was a crucial moment to boost their standing with voters who view both candidates negatively. The candidates’ families filed into the debate hall at New York’s Hofstra University moments before Clinton and Trump took the stage.
