Trump releases statement - he won't debate Bernie.

[kstewart33]

Political Wire:

Donald Trump said he will not participate in a debate with Bernie Sanders, Politico reports.

Said Trump: “Based on the fact that the Democratic nominating process is totally rigged and Crooked Hillary Clinton and Deborah Wasserman Schultz will not allow Bernie Sanders to win, and now that I am the presumptive Republican nominee, it seems inappropriate that I would debate the second place finisher.”

He added: “As I want to debate Bernie Sanders – and it would be an easy payday – I will wait to debate the first place finisher in the Democratic Party, probably Crooked Hillary Clinton, or whoever it may be.”

1. "and it would be an easy payday"

Yes, he was planning on stealing the funds. Sanders is very lucky not to be involved.

25. BS asked for this.. it was a dumb thing to do.

[Tal Vez]

27. Well, no wonder Trump appeared to be so interested.

Free money!!

2. Anybody else concerned about that

6. My 85 year old Mother just mentioned that today!

What is wrong with people?

19. My parents are 89 and 90 years old and life-long Democrats. They are both totally appalled and

bewildered by Trump. They simply cannot believe that he is actually the nominee of the Republican Party. They have seen plenty in their lives, so when they say "What are these people thinking?" it is very telling. They have both already voted early for Hillary in the June 7th California primary. My dad follows politics closely and cuts every anti Trump cartoon out of his newspaper to share with me. My mom doesn't follow the issues etc. as closely but just says Trump looks, sounds and acts like an idiot. She asked me to help her mark her vote by mail ballot (her hands are little shaky). She told me to mark it for Hillary and then on the down ballot choices (Senator etc.) to vote for the Democrat and if there is more than one Democrat choose the woman. So cute!

23. Oh that is cute! Your Dad sounds like mine. I really miss

talking politics with him. He passed at age 80 in 2004 - four days after the election.

Cutting out the Trump cartoons is something my Dad would do .

3. So childish and immature. He is right about the second

place finisher though. Why bother?

How can anyone think this bozo should represent our country in the world? (Trump - Sanders has his own problems, but I won't call him a bozo).

4. I can not believe they nominated a man-child.

[sarae]

12. It still feels like a bad dream, doesn't it?

[Walk away]

5. I'm sure Bernie will try to drag a few more days of attention out of it.

He is desperate to latch on to some free Trump TV exposure.

[Cha]

26. Yeah, I blame burnie for this whole shit sandwich.

[Her Sister]

7. BS, Trump moved! ~ came to your defense! He believes in you!

Ahhh Trump wants your voters! Courting them! Such sweeeeet sweeeet words! Like a siren! Seductive!
Love is in the air! Spring/Summer and all!!

BS, your move!

[TwilightZone]

8. Trump set 'em up. And Trump knocked 'em down.

What a surprise. I can't believe that Sanders set himself up for this. He has no one to blame but himself.

Anyone who's paid any attention to Trump all campaign season knew this was coming.

[TwilightZone]

14. Wrong place

28. That's what I said.. kind of..

9. Trump must really think that BS supporters are morons. His feigned outrage is pathetic.

I'm offended for them.

[Surya Gayatri]

10. "inappropriate that I would debate the second place finisher.” LOLOL!

[grossproffit]

13. Would that be an inappropriate signature line?

*evil grin*

[Surya Gayatri]

16. Go for it! It would fit nicely...just the right length.

20. LOL! nt

[TwilightZone]

15. As an aside, anyone else think that the Sanders supporters' frequent use of "chicken?!?"

in reference to this is nearly as childish as some of the stuff Trump pulls?

Trump: Hillary's crooked and Bernie's a loooooser
BSS: You're just chicken!! Bawk bawk!!

It's like a playground argument between elementary school kids.

[liberal N proud]

18. They operate like the pundits...

One leader uses a word or phrase and the entire cast of Berners repeats.
Just like flipping the channel on TV and hearing the same thing from completely different sources.

[liberal N proud]

17. Another Bernie Sanders political stunt fail!

[BlueCaliDem]

29. ...

[stopbush]

21. Man, if Trump can so easily read and push Sanders' buttons, imagine what

our enemies would do with this lightweight.

[kstewart33]

22. Sanders has never been intensely attacked in his political career.

With what the Republicans would throw at him, I don't believe he could handle it.

Too much of a temper, too much of a my-way-or-the-highway guy, too much a grouch.

[Cha]

24. Wow.. BS really set himself up to get let down by donald Crooked Trump, didn't he?

Poor burnie.. Donald's so sad he's not going to be the nom.
