Make the topic Venezuela and Cuba and I’m in.
*Trump has said that he would hope to raise $10-15 million for an unnamed charity from a debate.*
Actually, he said he’d donate it to women’s health organizations.
Geez, getting the left to tell a story correctly is like squeezing water out of a rock.
Hillary is just absolutely toast if a trump-sanders debate is held. (so bring it!)
I’d only do it on FOX Business News.
And Trump chooses moderators....
NBC = Nothing But Clintons
Bingo.
If this debate actually happens, it will be a disaster for Hillary. Few people will remember what was said, but the pictures taken of Sanders and Trump smiling and shaking hands will have an immense effect on the millennials who support Sanders. Many will end up supporting Trump.
Any way you slice it, Trump wins and hitlery loses.
I predicted a bidding war.
This is the attempt to drive bernie and Trump voters apart for Hillary. They are worried about Bernie voters going Trump.
I hope he doesn’t fall for it
“Meanwhile, a spokesperson for ABC News told Variety, I can tell you were always interested in more opportunities to hear from the candidates.”
Real meaning - we need the ratings and want to charge advertisers 500% more than we normally get.
We also want to spend hours after the debate bashing everything Trump said and fawn over Bernie.
I think it is pure genius and a chance for both men to stick it to Hillary. Hillary will be the biggest loser and both men can unload on her and she will not be there to defend herself. Bwahahahahahaha
“It I see no real value in it unless Sanders is the Dem nominee. Otherwise, why bother. It would be as meaningless as Trump debating Cruz after the Indiana primary.does seem odd in the surface. But everything brilliant Trump has done has been something odd, not normal by politician standards.”
It serves 3 things I can see:
1) Trump needs Bernie voters in the fall. If he goes soft against Bernie and keeps it to an anti-Hillary debate, some may back Trump when Bernie leaves the race.
2) It might help Bernie win CA, which puts the Democrat race into turmoil.
3) it makes Hillary look irrelevant/scared
Trump has put her in another box. She said debated anywhere any tine. Except now.
Trump can use the air time to ignore Sanders in his responses and pummel Hillary in effigy. Hillary, presumably invited but not being present, will just have to sit at a monitor in her campaign bus or her Chautauqua mansion basement womyn-cave and take it on the chin in the after-debate polls. her MSM won’t be able to help her very effectively— their only defense that i have noted so far seems to be that “Trump is not a serious candidate (and therefore unworthy to debate*)” but millions of people will be exposed to Trump stomping all over Hillary, unchecked and on live tv (or later via youtube) anyway.
The Hillary supporters that will remain after the debate will be left isolated, high and dry by their own candidate.
Sanders will come that much closer to taking California, and with it, presumably dooming the democrat bid for the presidency in 2016. So far, Sanders only has millenial hipsters and the communists behind him. And the hipsters, being too busy partying, studying, or working at Starbucks, probably won’t show up to vote.
* thus precipitating the common liberal behavior of stomping away in a huff or abruptly changing the topic whenever they are at a loss for words in a discussion or debate.
Since Hillary backed out of the promised debate with Bernie BEFORE the California primary, it would paint Hillary as a coward - afraid to debate Bernie. In addition, they could both criticize Hillary like a tag-team event staring Toru Tanaka and Mr. Fugi. (Donald brings the salt). Hillary would be crucified.
Please do it and raise money for the VETs....Please
Make it a love fest....
Trump is amazing.....
Oh, it has plenty of value.
1) It lends presidential quality to Sanders at a time that Clinton is stealing the nomination, throwing the Dems into further chaos.
2) WHEN #1 happens, Trump will have gotten massive exposure to Bernie’s voters. Yeah, he’ll lose a lot, but he’ll also pick up a bunch when Bernie is eliminated.
3) If, by some quirk, Dinobernie became the nominee, Trump will already have started pummeling his socialism in front of a national audience.
