A good chance for Sanders' supporters to get an unfiltered look at Trump. I think this is a "Can't lose" opportunity for the Donald.

If Donald pulls this off while Hillary sits grumpily on the sidelines, he really is a master showman.

The Young Turks? It will be a biased ambush of Trump. No way will it be fairly run.

It's a terrific idea. With so many issues, the far left and the far right agree on what the problems are. It's the solutions where the disagreement lies.

In many states, both Trump and Sanders won. That means a strong majority wants an outsider who doesn't take marching orders from the elite.

This will bring in unimaginable viewing numbers. It'll totally marginalize the political establishment. I say DO IT!

Trump is not risk averse. He takes the oxygen out of the room and Shows Hillary Clinton's smallness.

This is also reminiscent of Reagan debating his ol' sparring partner John B. Anderson one-on-one in 1980 for the general when Carter wouldn't debate. Carter was shamed in finally having to do a debate, where Reagan scored the KO.

Epic debate. A Cruz v. Hillary warmup match, before the big event, is probably too much to ask for.

This will effectively reduce Hillary to the status of an”Also Ran”.

It would be a "Can't lose" opportunity for Bernie. And a "Can't win" for Hillary. Depending on the moderator and format it's a risk for Trump -- but when did that ever stop him from doing anything?

Of course he should do it. Crazy Bernie only appears halfway sane when he's compared with Hillary.
