Also $10 million is a starting price. If someone wants to put in a higher offer who would turn it down.
Trump should have asked for $100 million. Any one of the cable news outfits would have paid.
Trump is being fair here
100 million, they won’t touch it
10 million, who knows
smart move either way
Sanders doesn’t have $10M.
Makes Trump look like he didn’t mean it, doesn’t really want to do it.
Sorry, it does.
I’d personally pay a nice chunk of change to see that!
That’s what we’re in for.
A Summer filled with PT Barnum shows to keep Hillary off-balance, discombobulated, and on defense.
Welcome to the Thunderdome, Hillary.
Didn't work out too well for Jimmy Carter.
I see some articles saying no, Donald was just joking about debating Bernie. I see others saying Donald is ‘looking forward’ to debating Bernie.
I don’t know what to conclude, except that Donald has once again found a way to create a meaty story that must be discussed. Donald is done with Megyn for now. We know enough about her by now. Trump has created a market for this event that did not exist before today, and he’s done so without spending any money on ads. PRICELESS!!$
charity? sounds good....
Hillary’d demand $100,000,000.00 for HERSELF!
It seems clear to me that Trump is trying to rip away Bernie supporters from Hillary in the general election. Look for the debate to be fairly respectful as compared with most of the Republican primary debates, because he does not need to “Get rid” of Bernie. Bernie is just a convenient tool.
I am reminded of Samson destroying the Philistines using the jawbone of an ass. (Judges 15:16)
Hillary is probably having a triple shot of vodka right now, cussing out the Secret Service and throwing ashtrays.
Trump’s strategy also sucks the media oxygen away from Big Mouth Pocahontas.
Also $10 million is a starting price. If someone wants to put in a higher offer who would turn it down.
$10 million to sponsor a “Trump vs Bernie” debate would be worth ten times that in publicity and goodwill for any company willing to come forward.
Oh what a decision for the poor MSM:
1) We pay $10m to watch The Donald go after The Bern in a cage match, and we make $100M
2) We don’t, so both contestants don’t get to trash Hillary! on prime time TV, and we make $0
Bernie has never seen that kind of personal money....
I really hope this occurs. What a stick in Clinton’s eye.
Trump needs to increase his voter base. Playing stupid games with Bernie ain’t gonna cut it. He’s got the Reality TV voters locked in time to move on.
Reminds me of the checkmate move Ronald Reagan made with the announcement of the "Star Wars" SDI missle defense program.
Have the Veterans been given what was promised at the Charity rally a while back? I think I saw a report that they were still waiting. Trump should make sure this is resolved, before any talk of another “charity” event is scheduled. I don’t want to give any opposing forces any ammunition. Go Trump.
“Sanders’ July 2015 personal filing lists assets valued at between $194,026 and $741,000 in his wife Jane Sanders’ name — with the majority of these assets held in investment funds. The filing also lists credit card debt between $25,002 and $65,000.
The personal asset disclosure forms do not list properties held by Bernie and Jane Sanders, which include a home in the Washington D.C. neighborhood of Capitol Hill where the median home price is roughly $726,000 and a home in Vermont that realtor.com values at approximately $320,000.
The campaign asset disclosure does not include the Sanders household’s 2015 after tax income — which would have been in the neighborhood of $180,000 assuming it were similar to the family’s tax filing in 2014.
Adding the estimated values of the Sanders family’s homes in Vermont and Washington D.C. to the median value of the asset estimate listed in his campaign personal asset filing and an after-tax estimate of the Sanders household’s 2015 income suggests that Bernie and Jane Sanders hold assets valued at roughly $1.7 million. Subtracting the median of the candidate’s listed credit card debt range suggests that the couple holds somewhere in the neighborhood of $1.65 million in assets, assuming both houses are owned outright.—The Motley Fool
