Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and Democrat presidential nominee Hillary Clinton attacked on each other in the first US Presidential debate at Hofstra University on New York state's Long Island.

While speaking about on creating and bringing back jobs, the New York billionaire said that,"We have to stop our jobs from being stolen from us" and is claiming that Mexico's factory building is like "the 8th wonder of the world."

When Donald Trump said he would release his tax returns if his opponent released what he called her "33,000 deleted" emails, Clinton said, "I made a mistake using a private email" server.

Republican Trump talked about the importance of "law and order" in response to the moderator's question on how to heal racial divides. He said that if you walk down the streets in places like Chicago, "you get shot." He went on to cite the controversial "stop-and-frisk" policing tactic as a way to bring down crime. "Right now our police are afraid of doing anything," he said.

Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton seemed to come to a rare agreement about a contentious gun issue. Trump told Clinton, "I agree with you" when it comes to not allowing people "on a watch list or a no-fly list" from buying guns. He said, "We have to look very strongly at no-fly lists and watch lists."

Clinton had said earlier that she believes, "If you're too dangerous to fly, you're too dangerous to buy a gun."

Hillary Clinton says one key to fighting terrorism in the United States is working closely with Muslims living here. Clinton said Donald Trump has "consistently insulted Muslims abroad, Muslims at home." Both candidates were asked to explain how they would combat terrorism in the US.

Clinton said her plan includes an intelligence surge to obtain "every scrap of information" and to "do everything we can to vacuum up intelligence from Europe, from the Middle East."
