Season 51 Episode 39: Campaigns build on debate momentum and Congress overrides Obama veto

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 vice presidential candidates will debate next week. Extra: Lawmakers on Capitol Hill passed a compromise bill to keep the government funded through December and provide funding for the ongoing Flint water crisis. Plus, New York Times reporter Ashley Parker describes the "Rubik's cube" of Donald Trump personalities voters have seen during the 2016 election. Washington Post reporter Karen Tumulty discusses the importance of endorsements in the presidential election.
