The Morning After: What All Newspapers Are Leading With After Last Night's Debate

• Zero Hedge

Ultimately last night's third and final presidential debate boiled down to just one brief exchange between Donald Trump and Chris Wallace, the one which all newspapers are leading with today: "What I'm saying, I will tell you at the time," he told moderator Chris Wallace when asked if he would honor the results of the election. "I will keep you in suspense."  According to the WSJ, that response was "unprecedented and will be the answer for which this debate will be remembered."

As AP lead with a story that will be carried across much of America's newspaper this morning:

 
 

Threatening to upend a fundamental pillar of American democracy, Donald Trump refused to say Wednesday night that he will accept the results of next month's election if he loses to Hillary Clinton. The Democratic nominee declared Trump's resistance "horrifying."

Trump's assertions raise the prospect that millions of his supporters may not accept the results on Nov. 8 if he loses, thrusting the nation into uncharted territory. Free and fair elections, with the vanquished peacefully stepping aside for the victor, have been the underpinning of America's democratic tradition since the country's founding 240 years ago.
