Never Trump

[Red]

Insanity. If someone had written this political season as fiction people would have thought it was so ridiculous and over the top that it was not worth the paper it was written on, but now that it's actually happening we can hardly bring ourselves to look the other direction. And every time we do look away something even crazier, like this bizarre debate from Planet Insanity, happens.

I would love to watch a live feed of Hillary's face as it goes on. She's going to get absolutely crucified. I'll bet they spend a large percentage of the time talking about her.

I think without a doubt the fact that Hillary will likely be the Democratic nominee is the biggest reason Trump might win it all. It's a scary prospect for many, but the same can be said for Hillary. Unreal "dislike" numbers for both. Should we be surprised that it will come to this? Should we expect better of ourselves? Something's not right if our choices are Trump and Clinton. I think de Tocqueville might have said something to the effect that in a mass democracy like our own, divested of an aristocratic class, mediocracy would rise to the top. Not the creme, the mediocre. Something is wrong when a reality TV egomaniac can just bombast his way to the nomination while the leaders of that party sit slack jawed wondering how did this happen and how can we derail him. Not that both parties don't have a lot to answer for. Not that they don't have all of this coming. A tumultuous time in our history for sure. And you can bet it's going to be a summer of riot police and crowd control. Amazing....

**** would've been like PPV WCW. Sadly, looks like Trump is backing out.

Saw some tweets to that end. I hope he doesn't back out.

When it comes to Trump the entertainment factor is off the charts! Clinton initially agreed to this debate with Sanders but then backed out, probably because she wants it to appear that she's already beaten him and has no time for him at this point in the race. She wants to focus on Trump. So Trump pulls a move that no one could ever have seen coming and debates Hillary's supposedly defeated opponent. The ratings are going to be stratospheric! Hillary gunna be so mad!!!

The reason Trump is urging Bernie to run as an independent is because he believes it will hand the election to Trump. From what I've read, it would. I doubt Bernie does that, but he's damaging Hillary up to this point. I've read that at least 10% of the Berns supporters will vote for Trump.

Source? This article was just barely posted and says nothing about that:

I've seen the Jimmy Kimmel segment now and I'm not sure Trump really agreed to it. The debate idea was all Sanders doing. Brilliant move by him. I initially gave Trump the credit for this, but it was not him.

Are the tweets from Trump? Can you link to them?

Heh

I'm pretty sure Bernie is 100% in. If this doesn't happen it will be because Trump backs out.

From here, no. I just searched for "trump sanders" on twitter.

It wasn't from him directly. Just tweets from 'sources" to news agencies and what not.

This. Bernie has been talking about how he would "LOVE" to debate Trump ever since the primary started.

Trump went on the Kimmel show and said he would debate Bernie so long as the proceeds went to charity.

Bernie tweets "YES" and says lets do it before the Cali primary.

This morning there's rumours from Trump's camp saying he doesn't want to do it.

My chicken comment was just quoting the movie... had nothing to do with the debate, you stupids.

The inspector general report has me even more ticked off at Hillary than I was before. One of the quotes from the report was Hillary's aide saying she had the private server in order to (attempt to) evade the Freedom of Information Act, which is even more despicable than I had thought. (I previously just assumed it was for her convenience.)

Thinking now of creating the hashtag #NeverTrumpNeverHillary
