Brilliant on Trump's part because it marginalizes Hillary even more by jumping over her political corpse to debate the person the Democrats are saying he is the loser in the Dem primary election.

Is this a confirmation that Trump intends to debate Sanders in California?

If that is the case, that is astonishing. That is clever beyond anything I could have thought of, I have to admit. I am really surprised :O

It is brilliant. As stated, he marginalizes Hillary, drawing attention to her own refusal to debate Bernie.

Imagine some snippets:

"Oh, I agree with Senator Sanders that the Washington establishment, personified by Hillary Clinton, is completely corrupt."

"Oh, I agree with Senator Sanders that something must be one about student debt. I can't go so far as free tuition, but I can support..."

He'll have half the Bernie Crew on the Trump Train by the convention.

“astonishing” Well, at least!

Of course Bernie’s job will be to attack and injure Trump. He’s a surrogate for Hillary (who would do terrible in a debate with Trump).
Risky business for Trump, no risk for Bernie.

Man... I think I’ll watch this LOL!

I can only imagine that Hilary is stewing in her own juices right about now realizing that she has been totally outmaneuvered by two white men.

Trump just said on Jimmy Kimmel he would do it if a charitable contribution were made by Bernie or a network.

Bernie looks pretty much like a true believer commie - propelled by ideas. He will be far more interesting for trump to debate than Hillary the Corruptoidess — whom trump can defeat without debating her , merely by continuing to point out her legion failings both moral and practical.

It’s brilliant on so many levels.

This subconsciously conveys that Clinton is irrelevant, that she refuses to debate, that Sanders is a worthy candidate, that Trump isn’t waiting until the convention to start the general race, and that he is as comfortable taking on those on the left on their home turf.

This could be a devastating blow to Clinton in so many ways. Imagine if Trump brings up Clinton’s e-mail scandal now. Do you think Sanders will defend her? Or will he pile on?

Either outcome is disastrous to the Democrats.

Even if no debate happens with Bernie - just saying yes just hits at Hillary.

Is Trump debating Sanders? Or is this wishful on Sanders’ part? I do not see that on any news site.

Yes, it’s very marginalizing.

Trump just addressed this proposal on the Kimmel show. I don’t know if he was serious, but he said he would do it if the revenue from the huge ratings would be donated to charity.

I never watch network TV, but did watch, knowing Trump was to be on.

Kimmel was very fair and funny. Sanders will be on tomorrow. I may actually watch again.

Okay, I see the reports. Seems to be risky for Trump, but what fun! Poor Clinton gets to watch. Fantastic if they can pull this off!
