Cowardly Donald Trump Is Afraid To Debate Someone With A Brain

[GoLeft TV]

It looks like Donald Trump is sticking to his guns in refusing to a bonus debate with Senator Bernie Sanders. While many say that Donald has nothing to gain from a debate like this, isn’t it more likely that he’s simply terrified of facing off against someone that isn’t a bottom-feeder Republican? Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

1. This meme is foolish. Name me the last time that a nominee of one Party debated the losing

candidate of the other Party ? I won't hold my breath waiting for an answer.....LOL

2. Faron has some good points here

But that aside - as LOONEY as this election cycle is, what makes this so out of bounds??? We're talkin' DONALD FUCKIN' TRUMP here! ANY chance to show this buffoon for what he is (or ain't) should be grabbed ahold of with glee.

3. It would have been inappropriate. After all, it is Sanders himself who has been lecturing Hillary,

the DNC and the media about not being presumptuous when it comes to the Democratic nominee. Debating the Republican nominee before everyone has voted and the convention held, would be the height of hypocrisy.

7. It is a ridiculous post

He will be debating Clinton in the near future.

10. It's a ridiculous ELECTION cycle

And it would look BAD for Ms. Clinton if Bernie was freer to poke Donald harder than she can/could with all the establishment/donors she's beholden to.

Donnie is unarmed.

5. Without having to go through on anything, Trump attempted to embarrass Clinton . . .

by showing he was unafraid to challenge Sanders, then in the next breath discredited Sanders by implying there was nothing to gain by engaging the second-place candidate.

Of course, there are more than two ways to look at most everything, and Trump can easily be seen as an opportunistic schmuck for making challenges he has no desire to fulfill, and as a "coward" for backing out, but he can also be viewed (at least by his supporters) as having "got the goat" of both Democratic candidates.

6. Sanders is already irrelevant

I have been busy looking through the thesaurus for what I'll call him after next Tuesday. So far, no luck.

8. Irrelevant? How can you possible come to that conclusion? How can a guy have 45% of the vote, be

drawing, today, up to 60,000 people to rally at a single location, etc. and come to the conclusion that the man is irrelevant. Look, I don't like Katie Perry, but she can draw a crowd and get out a message. I would be a in denial of reality if I were to consider her irrelevant. Perhaps a dictionary that contained the definition of "relevant" would be a better tool for you than the thesaurus.

9. So Mitt Romney with 48% (or so) of the vote in the GE is what?

Oh, yeah, irrelevant. You BSers have constantly over-rated rallies. Rallies do not represent votes. Katie gets paid by the head, so they're relevant to her. Good idea about the dictionary, I'll try it.
