37. What makes you think he'll debate?

Thu Jun 9, 2016, 11:13 AM

Jun 2016

When HRC's campaign broke the promise of a debate with Sanders in April and May, they handed Trump the excuse he'll use to refuse... simple.

The smarter people on the Repub side got the measure of the cowardice of the HRC campaign in their running away from Sanders.

That, and HRC herself may want to tell the progressives to go pound sand, refuse Sanders a floor speech at the convention, and skitter to the right to chase after Repub votes in the fall. Don't dismiss the difficulty of the GE.
