It does, because he went over too, and he went over more times than she did.
You need to look at the duration not the number of times. Your spinning for Hillary. The mods called out Trump for going over at the moment the clock hit zero. They did not call out Hillary at all for going over.
You need to watch the debate with a stop watch.

I'm not spinning for Hillary. Of course the mods were biased towards Hillary, and I already said that. However, the time talking isn't a deciding factor of the debate because they were really close to equal talking time, with Trump getting a little more. Past that, I'm not sure why this is a central focus. What seems more important to me is what they did and didn't say during the time they were talking. Part of the reason Trump received more talking time is because the mods had to ask him follow-up questions when his answers in no way addressed the original question. Personally, I learned virtually nothing with this last debate. They spent so little time talking about substantive issues, or specific plans to fix any problems, or how they plan to handle the complexity of the presidency (where there are no easy solutions). I just get more and more disappointed that these 2 clowns are what we're left with. They should have let Gary Johnson debate with them...at least we would have a complete 3-ring circus then!

Your the one supporting Hillary's overages on time that the mods did not moderate.
You still don't get it.
Trump uses his 2 minutes, goes over 2 seconds and is shouted down by the mods. Hillary goes over several times and does not get called out By the mods.
Trump: 2 minutes on bills indiscretions while in office.
Hillary: 1:35 seconds denying it.
Next, Trump 2 minutes on subject.
Hillary: 2:25
Time is even right?
The point is that the debate mods were bias and that is all the member was stating when you hit him with the fairness, equal talking time spin.

Gary Johnson: Allepo? Can I get a bowl from somebody?
Can you name a foreign dignitary you admire? GG, I don't know any, can somebody roll a fatty for me?
