Yo...I just drank honest to goodness beer...and I'm listening to country music. Pray for me fam.

I also ordered another Hillary shirt. Mess.
 
very "i'm tired of bernie's shit and would like to minimize the chance that donald fucking trump is this country's next head of state via unforced errors on his part"-ish



lol, like anyone on that team has any chance against Bron
What about Delly? I want to mix him a drink if you catch my meaning.....

Just woke up from a nap to find out Sanders and Trump are spit balling the idea of a debate. What?

I should have stayed asleep.
 
delly will inexplicably go off for 30-5-5 for the series and get named finals MVP.

australia wins again.

actually, a certain other australian might have that line
Idk what most of that means? I just think he's kinda cute and his name makes me think of getting a sub????I don't follow hoop ring ball.

What would actually happen if they both debated? Would they both just shit on Hillary for two hours? That would definitely benefit Trump, but what does Sanders have to gain from that? It's not like he has any chance at the nomination so he should be vying for more power at the convention or something and this would be going against that? Or would Sanders actually attack Trump and defend Hillary, which would definitely help push Bernie supporters towards Hillary in November and may give Bernie more sway at the convention. But then Trump has absolutely no reason to be a part of this. So what the fuck is going on?
 
basically, one of cleveland's aussie-born players is gonna do the thing and win the sports

(the intent of my last post: this makes as much sense to you as this trump/sanders debate makes to anyone outside a social media echo chamber)

Bernie is a big, fat mess?
 
Essentially ended a friendship (more like a long-time acquaintanceship) today over Email-gate. I just cannot hide my contempt for people who treat it like a major thing. I think it goes beyond mere disagreement and into full-on hatred at this point. Like I want these people to feel literal anguish in November.

I'm sure it won't happen, but Bernie gets free ad time out of it. It's his only chance to say his finger in Trump's face

I'm not so gay that I don't get some sports. Although for the longest time I thought tight ends were elected to that position by their team mates.

and we all know the process for electing them
 
at least when trump inevitably denies that he seriously considered it, bernie can claim someone other than the hillary or DNC fucked him over for once

Why am I so mellow about this and y'all are like not chill. It ain't gonna happen.

Probably.
To me it's not about this happening. It's about the possibility of this stupid thing being the media circus Trump wants it to be for the next few days. It's a perfect Trump diversion and a waste of time that the media will eat up.

It's pretty funny though. 2016, a debate for our presidency is agreed to on a late night tv show between a failing primary candidate and a presumptive nominee to be moderated by TYT who is now offering.

What a time to be alive.
 
What...the fuck?

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

Is he actually nuts? Yeah let's just have a Bernie/Trump shit-on-Hillary fest --- er "debate."

GO AWAY.

Is this real life?

I want to see Trump pull a too slow and run his hand through his hair when him and Sanders walk up to shake hands. How mad would that make Berniebros?

Exactly this.

This week Hillary and the Democratic Party launched their first unified attack against Donald Trump over his housing crisis comments. If the media picks up on this, and if Trump is smart (big if), Bernie just gave him the perfect media bait to deflect all that.

If this were football, Bernie just broke formation and crossed the line of scrimmage.

Anyway Trump said Sanders would be easiest to beat on Kimmel so he knows the game of course. Nothing to stress since it's all a running joke to him probably.

Just gonna trend for a day then fade to nothing.
 
I think a grand total of three people outside of S4P care about this. People are getting worried over nothing.

It would be fine if Bernie just attacks Trump over and over again for hating the poor.
 
I was looking up Obama's comments on people criticizing the Democrats that voted for Roberts' appointment back in 2005 and this was an interesting and relevant bit:

…to the degree that we brook no dissent within the Democratic Party, and demand fealty to the one, “true” progressive vision for the country, we risk the very thoughtfulness and openness to new ideas that are required to move this country forward. When we lash out at those who share our fundamental values because they have not met the criteria of every single item on our progressive “checklist,” then we are essentially preventing them from thinking in new ways about problems. We are tying them up in a straightjacket and forcing them into a conversation only with the converted.
 
I don't see how Trump agrees to this.

So the only reason that he would agree to it would be to give bernie a boost. Because he obviously would prefer him to be the nominee.

But he'd have to "lose" the debate in order for that to happen.

It seems like a lose lose for Trump.

I think it's just his philosophy of any press is good press. He wants Bernie to stay in the spotlight with stuff like this so that the Democratic party stays divided as possible. Even if Bernie "loses" he still wins by having a huge amount of publicity and probably some good ratings on TV.

Trump debating Sanders without Hillary being there makes her look bad for not showing up
It undermines her as the presumptive nominee
Trump thinks he can win over Sanders supporters
He can shittalk Hillary without her being there to defend herself
He can "win" another debate
All press is good press
Huge ratings
