Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump were forced to say something nice about the other candidate in the second presidential debate, after a question from an audience member.

Clinton—the first to field the question—said she respected Trump’s children. “I respect his children,” Clinton said. “His children are capable and devoted, and I think that says a lot about Donald.”

Trump praised his opponent’s devotion to her cause, calling her a “fighter.”

“I will say this about Hillary, she doesn’t quit, she doesn’t give up,” Trump said.
