"This makes no sense at all. Why should Trump debate Bernie, if he’s not going to go up against him (we assume) in November?"

I think this is a brilliant move on Trump's part. He's playing for Bernie's voters and making Hillary irrelevant at the same time. She's so stupid. I don't see Trump hammering Bernie but having a civil debate. It sounds incredulous that Bernie voters would gravitate to Trump, but polls have shown this to be true. They are both going to be agreeing on one big issue. The current system is rigged. That's going to be a dog whistle to Bernie supporters ears....

A lot of these Bernie supporters are college students. Stupid college students. But not so stupid that they don’t realize that one day they will need a J-O-B.

The appeal of The Donald and The Bern is that they are both seen as straight-shooters, a quality young people (and many of us elders) appreciate more than just the ideology. So if the exact opposite of straight-shooting ends up with the Dem nomination, I can see a significant migration of Bern voters to Trump.
