Triumphant Trump says bring it on: I’ll debate both Bernie and “big mouth” Elizabeth Warren
Source: Salon
If he paid a sum toward charity I would love to do that, Trump told Kimmel Wednesday night, days after it was revealed he was extremely belated in donating a promised $1 million to a veterans charity after skipping out on a Fox News debate earlier this year.
Nevertheless, Sanders jumped at Trumps challenge:
Bernie Sanders ✔ @BernieSanders
Game on. I look forward to debating Donald Trump in California before the June 7 primary.
Bernie Sanders ✔ @BernieSanders
I am delighted that @realDonaldTrump has agreed to debate. Lets do it in the biggest stadium possible.
Shes a woman thats been very ineffective other than shes got a big mouth, Trump said at the annual Williston Basin Petroleum Conference in Bismarck. Shes passed very little legislation. She has been a real disaster for a lot of people including Democrats and frankly cant stand her many of the Democrats, just ask Hillary Clinton how she likes her.
She is a senator thats highly overrated, he insisted. Every once in a while, Ill tweet and when I tweet, you know, not that many people are watching her tweets. When I tweet, they watch. I will say this. Look. Shes a senator thats highly overrated.
Ill debate anybody. I dont care. Ill debate her.

(2,003 posts)In which case, yes, Trump would be outmatched.
But there will be no debate. Trump will sling insults and the crowd will go wild. It will look more like a professional wrestling event than any sort of debate we've ever seen.

I swear, it would be like debating a 4 year old. And I know a 4 year old who speaks more coherently than that. Jesus.

Because they know Bernie's going to wreck this fool, and if Hillary wins the nomination, he's doing her a massive favor in doing so.

(135,425 posts)No one is going to be "wrecked," Trump was playing everyone from the get-go. He got what he wanted--newscasters saying his name. Over, and over, and over again:

(39,405 posts)The could "win" on the facts and issues, but as long as Trump remains unfazed, it will have little to no impact on low information voters.
Remember Baby Bush vs Gore?
He was even more incoherent and uninformed in 2004 against Kerry.
And it didn't matter.
