Title: TWENTY MILLION BUCKS for 2 hours work? No thanks! Trump bails on Bernie
Post by: 240 is Back on May 28, 2016, 11:55:00 AM
Trump backs out of debate against Sanders after tech company offers to pay for it

Donald Trump reneged on his intention to debate Sen. Bernie Sanders on Friday in a brief statement on his website.

“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,” the statement read.

The statement came to light shortly after Traction and Scale CEO Richie Hecker volunteered to offer the $10 million the GOP nominee had wanted to be donated to charity as a condition of debating Sanders.

WATCH: Bernie Sanders ridicules ‘tough guy’ Trump for ducking debate: ‘What are you afraid of?’

“The networks want to make a killing on these events and are not proving to be too generous to charitable causes, in this case, women’s health issues,” Trump said in his statement. “Therefore, as much 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.”


The prospect of a debate between the senator and the real estate magnate came about following Trump’s appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live earlier this week, when Trump expressed willingness to engage with Sanders, who currently trails Clinton for the

Trump had nothing to gain & a lot to lose by debating Bernie. Plus his supports & Bernies supporters in the same stadium would be like a soccer match with 2 sets of fans, fights everywhere. Would've been the most interesting thing in American politics in quite awhile, ratings would've rivaled the Super Bowl or Mayweather/Pacquioa

then he shouldn't have made the public offer/challenge to do the debate. 

That kind of erratic/unpredictable shift in promises is not something you want from a President.

His ego is too big to have said no on the spot even though I don't think he had any intention of debating him from the start. Every politician says one thing & does the opposite at some point. Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending or supporting Trump.  It's scary he's made it this far & scarier that he has a very real chance of being president. Most ppl don't seem to care about his many flaws, shows how gullible ppl are.

imagine him doing this on the world stage, like he's doing on the national stage.

He responds impulsively without thinking thru the ramifications.   He does this all the time.  He does it weekly on the national state, he does it on twitter against other world leaders.  What a train wreck he'll be as president.  Nobody here can defend him on thi.s

That was a lame move on trumps part. Really lame. He shouldnt have said he would be willing to do it in the first place if he wasn't.  Now he looks like a total douche, especially since 10 million could have gone to a good charity. Not impressed.

10 million for a women's charity, for 2 hours of his time.   Massive win there.

Trump is a YES man, trying to please every audience.   You have to be able to tell people NO as president.  He keeps telling us how good he is at making deals... but so far, he's been ineffective at best, and inept at worst.

Bernie and his supporters need to pack themselves into buses and then drive off a cliff.

The point here is that twump was willing to "swing down" and debate this out-of-it socialist senior, someone he called a crazy commie, for a price of $10 million.

When actually given an offer "Here's ten million to make it happen", he backs down. 

He bluffed an offer he had no intention of following through on - and it's a lot like his plans to eliminate the 19 trillion debt in 8 years, build a monster wall, deport 11 million people - - - All are unrealistic promises meant to appease voters.

He's being paid in supplements just like Goodrum. Check out Trump Pump Pre-Workout Powder with 750mg of caffeine per serving. Rumor has it that Bernie Sanders takes two scoops before every speech.

The point here is who gives a shit.

I don't know the circumstances about him "agreeing" to do it in the first place.  Who brought it up, how serious was he, etc.  It's like if a bunch of hostile feminists ask me if I would ever date an ugly woman.  I might say "sure" just to placate them, not ever intending to actually do it. "Sure" isn't a promise, it's something you say so people will fuck off because it's not a good use of you time to argue with them.

He's losing because he's boring.  American Democracy consists of pointing to what's happening in one of the circus rings.  Fireworks and dancing girls are what clinch an election.

Boring and a scold. People hate being told what to do. I can`t remember when an election had two people more disliked. Probably have to go back to 1836, or something.

Yes, because we're on the right track with Barry Obama. He's more concerned about .006% of the population having the "human right" to their own bathroom than ISIS which he even refuses to call them radical Islamic terrorists. Ballooned up national debt, weak borders, losing more and more American jobs...everything is just peachy.

Already with the personal insults! Not even smart ones at that! Trump played all the MSM to his advantage, he only spent $59 million in the primaries so far, Clinton who has their backing spent $300 million! All publicly is good publicity, if you read Art of the Deal maybe you would understand that. What did this Bernie debacle do? Gave him more press and made Hillary look bad!

Trump supporters love to make excuses.  I saw it happen again in my local paper's website comments section about Trump refusing to release his tax returns because "the America people (idiots) are too stupid to understand it."  Source:  http://www.cnn.com/2016/05/26/politics/paul-manafort-donald-trump-tax-returns/ (http://www.cnn.com/2016/05/26/politics/paul-manafort-donald-trump-tax-returns/)

Apparently, he's their harbinger of hate.  And, their bond of hatred for minorities, Democrats, etc (anything but addressing the REAL problems in their own lives) is so strong, they'll overlook the obvious for their leader.

Which is patently dangerous.

Bernie is a douche. Could give a rat's a..s if trump thought of debating him then bailed. Trump makes sense, why would he debate the guy who is going to lose to Hillary. Like Arnold competing against a non Mr universe winner. It's mute.

Moat.

The point here is who gives a shit.

the man who wants to be leader of the free world is continually duped into things he doesn't really believe in, by shithead tv pundits.

imagine how he'll fold like a house of cards when confronted by mean world leaders with nukes?

He can't control a table when his opponent is freakin' joe scarborough or jon stewart.  You expect him to magically own putin after he couldn't even manage collecting delegates (Cruz out-dealt the shit out of him there).

What kind of leader makes public offers then just rescinds when the other side agrees and comes up with the ten million?   ???   

Inconsistent, irrational, impulsive.   WIll he agree to treaties "on the fly" then back out?

trump publicly agreed.   he set a price and terms.  When that price and terms were met, Trump backed out.

he didn't "think" about debating it.  He told the world he'd do it for ten million.   Then he punked out. 


I don't think anyone here wants that kind of leader.

The CEOs have offered TWENTY MILLION for Trump to do the Bernie debate.




These CEOs Just Called Trump’s Bluff by Offering $20 Million for Sanders Debate


Source: USuncut.com

Tech industry investment firm Traction and Scale (T&S) wants to host the Sanders / Trump debate, and is willing to donate Donald Trump’s ransom of $10 million to charity in return. T&S CEO Richie Hecker told BuzzFeed News that he aims to host the debate in California on Monday, June 6, one day before California voters cast their ballots in the state’s primary, which is seen as Bernie Sanders’ last stand to remain competitive with Hillary Clinton.

Hecker laid out his vision for such a debate in a public statement to BuzzFeed News:

We would host the debate as a physical event and live stream it to the world. As a technology incubator and investment company, Traction and Scale builds transformative user experiences and will host the debate on our cutting-edge mobile technology. We have distribution to 250MM Americans on social media through this channel.

It was never agreed upon but facts don't matter right?

Whatever buddy.you are giving him a free pass. I wanted to see Trump win but he fucked this debate thing royally. He said he would do it if certain conditions were met, those conditions were able to be matched and he backpeddled and pulled a bitch move. There's no way to defend this.

He could have destroyed that old man but he looks weak now. I was actually forward to seeing this debate just to shut those fucking Sanders supporters up once and for all but he failed big time and just gave them more ammo.

To silence his detractors once and for all and the charity money would have been the cherry on top against all the misogyny claims.

Sounds pretty simple.  It was a win win and he fucked it.

Is your position that Trump never said he would debate Sanders, or are you hinging everything on the specific event never being agreed upon?

Let me repeat myself for those that can't read, he never agreed to actually debate Bernie, he set his terms. It deal was 10-15 million dollars for charity and for a real debate. No networks could give him that, one private production offered the 10 million but would not give him an actual debate, it was going to be a open forum where they would just trash Trump. None of the major networks gave him any offers. This was simply another PR stunt that got you talking about him.

yes he did. He said "yes, I am, how much is he going to pay me?"  https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vzO-JYjEcHE

Any network could give him that easily, the ratings would be so high the 10-15 mill would be covered in 2 commercial breaks. I don't remember the figure exactly but I know the super bowl was charging over 2 million a commercial, the super packs would pay way more than 2 mil. 4 commercial per break, that's easily $16 million in 2 breaks. In 1hr, you have approximately 12-15 minutes of commercial, 48-60 commercials.

I was way off with my numbers. It was 4.5 million per commercial at the super bowl. A debate btw Sanders & Trump would generated similar figures ESP with the superpacks having unlimited money at their disposal. That's  $18 per break. The 10-15 million to charity would be covered very easily by any network.

come on man, try to be a little objective. 1237 had nothing to do with him backing out. He knew he was getting that wks ago, he knew he was gonna be the nominee, he knew Bernie wasn't gonna win when he agreed to debate on the fly.  He or his ppl thought about it, realized it'd have been a horrible idea & changed their mind. I agree it was a no win for Trump, made no sense to debate Bernie but has nothing to do with 1237

I'm just going by what he said. My feeling on it is he's counting on Killary to get indicted and drop out. Sanders is too close to not drop out and he probably feels he has a chance to step in. If that's the case then there's the debate.

do you think he really believes there's a chance she'll get indicted or do you think he's purely doing it to damage his credibility even further? Either way, I can't wait for him & Hillary to debate. Most interesting presidential debate in my lifetime.

I see you conveniently didn't copy/paste the part where the boxing promoter has claim he could possibly bring in up to 20 million. ;) Very Clintonish move on your part to change the thread title and make the claim using only half the article.

he knew he had the 1237, he has many more coming in cali.  

He backed out because really, he has nothing to gain from a debate with the commie bernie.  The bigger issue is trump agreeing, being the bold hero who will win 10 million for womens rights charity...

Trump says Yes to things under pressure - then later backs out.   TERRIBLE form for a leader.  Donald, just stand up to the host and decline.  If you're prez, anything you say is national news.  Stop agreeing to positions and debates on the fly - then backing out later.   It makes trump looks like he lacks integrity and maybe has a terrible memory.

He knows it, that's why he's a troll and a Clinton plant. Probably gets a little extra in his welfare check for bashing Trump across the web.
