Clinton and Trump took to the stage in the final presidential debate ahead of November’s election. Here’s what our readers made of it

Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump went head to head in the final presidential debate on Wednesday night, after a fractious evening which saw Trump declare that he would keep the country “in suspense” over whether he would accept the outcome of the election.
