Sanders Trump debate in California on FOX....Please!!¡


It would be a brilliant move. Sanders would be scorching hot as he dismembered Trump! A preview of the GE and Hillary / DNC would be left powerless.

This is already trending on twitter.

...first of all, I do not want to see any more Hillary-Bernie debates. That being said, this initially seemed like a good idea. But, does Bernie lower himself by appearing in a debate with Trump? Not sure...

I thought it was an inspired idea back then, and I still think it's a good idea.

It's much harder to push loony Republican points when sensible people are in attendance.

As for Bernie, I don't see him "evolving" on any of his positions to pander to his audience.

To stand there tag teaming Hillary with the republican devil.

Just sayin. I do believe millions and millions of democrats would begin to wonder just what kinda democrat would do such a thing with Fox "news" no less.

Clinton didn't lay much of a glove on Sanders, because it wouldn't have done much for her, but Trump would absolutely destroy him. Sanders tends to repeat his stump speech everywhere and point his finger way too much, both of which Trump would exploit.

and trust me, Bernie had more than enough gutter material on the Queen. Trump debating the Queen would turn her into a New York Pasta meal......
