“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 watched the show, and it sounded to me like Trump WAS serious, and Bernie instantly jumped on it like a duck on a June bug.
I think the networks will start a bidding war to carry this debate, as it will be the best political theater since TV was invented, with ratings totally through the roof. And best of all, Irrelevant Hillary will be watching on the sidelines, stewing in her own juices as an earlier poster here just said.
As has already been stated, a debate like this would be totally brilliant for Trump on multiple levels: Trump could only come out of this win-win, whereas no matter what happens for Bernie, this will be a MAJOR lose-lose for the Democrats and for Irrelevant Hillary herself, as it would have a shattering impact on the Democrat race. Basically, a debate like this is letting Trump inside the Democrat party to completely blow it up.
The Democrats couldn’t have imagined going up against someone like Trump in their wildest nightmares, and yet here he is and there they are.
You are 100% on target.
Bernie and networks scrambling to meet Trump’s demands for a debate already paint Trump as the agenda setter.
Great post.
And....Trump dominates the news cycle going into memorial day weekend
