Tonight on Kimmel, Trump was asked if he would debate Bernie since Hillary backed out.

http://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-tells-kimmel-hed-be-willing-to-debate-sanders-for-charity/

He said he would, if proceeds were donated to charity.

Bernie accepted:

Game on. I look forward to debating Donald Trump in California before the June 7 primary.

Added CBSnews link.

Please god.

No way it actually happens.

 

[Mix Master]

do IT

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

what.

Megaton.

 

[Michael F. Assbender]

I can't wait for the Trump/Chafee debate.

 

[RoKKeR]

What.

Please let this happen.

 

[Fat4all]

A circus.

And we are the clowns.

 

[Ashodin]

Holy shit, this is amazing

 

[Who]

This would be beautiful.

Defenders of the establishment will not like this one bit.

Spoiler

oh they're coming

 

[BigJonsson]

It's a trap

 

[VendettaRed07]

I'm sure Trump is more eager to do this than Sanders just to undermine Hillary and further rile up Sander's base.

Hillary should have just bit the bullet and done the last debate.

 

[ShironRedshift]

This is... bizarre... What even is this primary...

 

[foxuzamaki]

Uh oh

 

[oatmeal]

Ideally, they both make fun of Hillary for an hour.

 

[cpp_is_king]

Damn, literally just came here to post this.

ABSOLUTE MADMAN.

 

[ChaosXVI]

Oh man,I didn't think we'd get one of these. So now we'll get a glimpse into the alternate reality where Bernie won and see how he does in a debate against Trump.

 

[M0nochromatic]

This can't end well.

 

[War Peaceman]

Bernie is an egotistical cunt. There will be no substance. There will be no debating in any productive sense. They both just want headlines. Incredible revolution.

It will just be Hillary sucks for two hours.

 

[Staccat0]

Lets see who can make the most empty promises in the time allotted.

It's almost crazy to me how much I used to like Bernie. I feel like I that another person or something. This shit is embarrassing.

 

[Fat4all]

Ideally, they both make fun of Hillary for an hour.

Trump knows he ain't gonna be going against Sanders in Nov, so there's no reason to attack him.

 

[googleplex]

Its basically going to be 2 hours of two people shitting on Hillary. Bernie is actively trying to lose the general election for the democrats now. He wants to punish america for not excepting his shit revolution.

How in the hell can anyone still defend him at this point?

 

[BUNTING1243]

Trump is going to pretend to lose

This is so dumb.

You're better than this, Bernie. You're smarter than this.

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

Bernie is an egotistical cunt

we're not even trying to be subtle with the shitposting anymore are we

 

[googleplex]

I'm sure Trump is more eager to do this than Sanders just to undermine Hillary and further rile up Sander's base.

Hillary should have just bit the bullet and done the last debate.

No she shouldn't have. You don't get to place the blame for Bernie stupid, stupid action on Hillary, There's nothing to debate! Sanders loss. End of fucking story.

 

[FunkyMunkey]

great work for the democratic side there bernie, i'm sure trump will stick to issues and not use you to try to take a fat shit on hillary /s

i couldn't be more disappointed in bernie if i tried. if i went back a year and told myself how i'd feel about him now i would've said i was crazy

 

[Marion Cobretti]

What if Bernie does so well debatimg agaimst Trump that it makes the super delegates flip.

That's sarcasm folks, no need to explain how that'll never happen.

I'll still be beyond blown away if this were to actually happen.

 

[Staccat0]

we're not even trying to be subtle with the shitposting anymore are we

Honestly, I don't understand any other reaction.

 

[hydrophilic attack]

Come on Bernie, just take the L. This is getting embarrassing

 

[Davide]

Heck yes

 

[cpp_is_king]

I'm sure Trump is more eager to do this than Sanders just to undermine Hillary and further rile up Sander's base.

Hillary should have just bit the bullet and done the last debate.

If anything, Trump is going to agree with Sanders on a lot of things just so all the Bernie supporters who are watching say "Holy shit, I actually agree with this guy!" and win their votes.

 

[danm999]

Should be quite the spectacle if it happens.

 

[HUELEN10]

My 2 potential candidates that I would vote for going head to head for charity?

I am hyped!

same

I want to go back and delete all my positive posts about Bernie

Spoiler

, and my vote for him in the primary

. What an embarrassment.

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

proceeds are going to charity. i don't understand why a single person would not want this to happen if money is going to a good cause?

 

[McDougles]

Honestly, I don't understand any other reaction.

It's for fucking charity, dude.

proceeds are going to charity. i don't understand why a single person would not want this to happen if money is going to a good cause?

Because the narratives, that's why.

You can't?

There's no way this will actually happen.

Same here. It started around the NY primary and that embarrassing interview. Just continues to spiral. This is bottom of the barrel.

 

[Fat4all]

Then they should just donate the money outright, because the rest is a shitshow.

Bernie knows this and doesn't care anymore. He's actively trying to sabotage Hillary at this point. What a piece a shit Bernie is revealing himself to be.

 

[strikeselect]

Because they're emotionally invested in their abuela's campaign.

 

[BUNTING1243]

There's really no outcome that doesn't help Trump in the general against Hilarly

Why else do you think trump would agree to it?

 

[BigJonsson]

It's a horrible idea for anyone who wants the Democrats to win the election

 

[User 463088]

It's not going to happen. Bernie can't take part in unsanctioned debates while running in the Democratic primary. Unless he actually wants the DSCC to really show him what putting a finger on the scale looks like, and he wants to fade into obscurity this won't happen. Trump and Bernie will bitch about it for a few days, then Trump will cite scheduling conflicts. It was a throw away answer on late night TV.

 

[Prodigal Son]

I'M WAKING MY NEIGHBORS WITH THE CHEERING

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooo

 

[Davide]

With the announcements we had today here's hoping Hillary's indicted. She can't beat Trump.

Hillary should have accepted the debate.

 

[greatgeek]

proceeds are going to charity. i don't understand why a single person would not want this to happen if money is going to a good cause?

Idk, but I think the governance of this country for the next 4-8 years, which will impact thousands of causes, merits some concern.

 

[Who]

The mental gymnastics many have undergone to make themselves believe Hillary is a good person and the right person to be President...

It's not exactly a logic you can reason with...

 

[Ashodin]

If this actually happens, I'm there for the fuckery.

DWS and Hillary Clinton will look really bad for not accepting now, which is great for Bernie fans. Might even give more momentum!

 

[Damaniel]

I wouldn't use those exact words myself, but Bernie is doing nothing but giving fodder to the GOP in the name of egotism. He's so desperate for anybody to pay attention to him that he's willing to drive the Democrats into chaos just so he can wring out a few more $27s from his ever-dwindling number of supporters.

If this actually happens, I'm there for the fuckery.

DWS and Hillary Clinton will look really bad for not accepting now, which is great for Bernie fans. Might even give more momentum!

Yes, because momentum is so important once you've already lost.
