Trump and Sanders whip up debate buzz (Trump: will donate debate fee to women's charity...<snicker>)
The Hill ^

Posted on 05/27/2016 6:46:08 AM PDT by quesney

Trump priced the debate, saying it would generate somewhere between $10 million and $15 million, and he suggested a women’s health organization should receive the money.

This debate will make Sanders the nominee.This debate = sanders is the president(see below for proof). That is the worst thing for America as America will be under socialism which means America will collapse

Trump had the election for president in the bag over Hillary as at least 25% of Sanders supporters would vote for Trump over Hillary. giving up 25% of democrat voters is a sure win for Trump

Now those 25% will be added to Sanders voters. Also Sanders doesn’t have the “crooked” Hillaray image , has the anti-establisment advantage and will take that from Trump.
much more but I don’t have time

so this debate means Sanders will be president = America is socialist very soon and America will collapse under socialism as Venezuela is today.

I can’t believe we had it all with Trump and now giving it away. I need to email Trump

Sanders will never be the nominee. Most Dems know he is an ultra-minor player in the party and has no loyalty to the party or its donors. Also, Bernie has not been vetted at all. Once some of his quotes praising breadlines or Sandinistas or the Soviets pop up, the indie will flee him.

Also, the Hillary voters may flip to Trump - Bernie is no Obama. He can’t swing to the right for the primary like Obama did.

I get that, but all it takes is one lucky punch. Or as they say in baseball, one swing away from winning the game. Why take that risk when Trump already has Hillary exactly where he wants her. Besides, the FBI may end her campaign anyhow.

The media tricked Trump into doing this debate.

Look at my other posts on this subject to see how this debate is the worst thing ever for America as it means socialism will be implemented within months after the inauguration

I can't post any proof here but it is in my other posts. I don't want to spam and repeat the same points

You’re wrong . Americans don’t know who Sanders is or even what socialism means. The media will brainwash and Trick Americans into thinking Sanders is something good for America like the media did with Obama another unknown. Hillary is known so the media can’t do that with Hillary. the media can’t take the establishment label off of Hillary. people don’t want clintons nor bushes.

Assuming 25,000,000 people watch the debate. How is that going to generate $10,000,000 for charity let alone make it profitable for the network that carries it?

I don’t get it. Does he expect 100,000,000? Would that work?

You’re looking at it from our point of view . We here know what socialism is. Americans don’t know anything and will be fooled by the media as sanders is an unknown that the media can make into anything it wants and will use this debate to do it.

Your major error is not understanding that there are a great many Democrats who will vote for Trump over Sanders or Biden, once Hillary is removed. It is not just about Hillary's scandals. All Democrats are not disloyal; they are simply mis-focused.

Trump will refocus them, just as he has been doing many former Bush Republicans.

But in any event, it is probable that Hillary will be removed. I suspect committees of prominent Democrats have already called on her several times. She is just slow in accepting the inevitable.

Trump should let Bernie keep his half of the money raised in order to keep his campaign against Hitlary running.

************

And that’s what makes him so dangerous. Well that and the fact that the entire media is pulling for him.

In my humble opinion, dispatching a field of Republicans was far easier than defeating a single Democrat. For them politics is blood sport. They will say or do anything to win. That makes them dangerous. Not saying Trump can’t win but he’s got to play smart.

Wait, you guys really don't get that a Trump and Sanders debate completely marginalizes Hillary who is, after all, the "presumptive nominee"?

Trump handled ALL the other Republican candidates in their debates, until they dropped out one by one ... And you think he can't handle Bernie Sanders?

This makes no sense, unless you're actually worried about the damage it does to Hillary's campaign.

Stop selling your country short

**************

This would be the same country that voted for Obama TWICE. I don’t think he’s selling the country short, he’s just recognizing that things could go horribly wrong (like they did in 2008 and 2012 for instance) and that would be devastating to our hopes. Trump is already on a roll — why risk that precious momentum? Yes, he might Crush Bernie but whenever people say “it’ll be easy” or “its a sure thing” be very careful.

There’s a good chance Hillary won’t win California. Let the two of them fight it out and destroy each other in the process.

Well, beating Republicans was far easier than defeating a Democrat in my opinion. Trump can probably handle Bernie but what if Bernie gets in a few lucky and well timed punches? You can bet the media will selectively run with and sensationalize those clips.

Never underestimate your adversaries. Bernie has been in politics his entire life. That may be somewhat of a liability for him in this election cycle, but he’s no amateur at the game — as Hillary has found out.

You can’t take him and the devious media lightly. They are treacherous people who will stop at nothing to derail the Trump Train. Right now the train is running smoothly down the tracks, right on schedule. Why make an unexpected detour?

‘this is a win win for Trump anyway you look at it’

Great move by Mr. Trump.
He gets to look Presidential viz a viz Sen. Sanders, who will look like a loony tune and Mz Clinton looks confused, weak and incompetent.
Great and Huge move, Mr. Trump.
