We are not laughing with Trump, we are laughing AT Sanders MohRokTah May 2016 #2

But the BS cheerleaders have been using it to post crap OP after crap OP about Secretary Clinton. SFnomad May 2016 #7

No it's not. Turin_C3PO May 2016 #25

I believe the term he used was barrow-wight May 2016 #21

Perhaps you don't understand the implication of Trump chickening out. lagomorph777 May 2016 #11

Trump is being gentle to Hillary!?!!?! lunamagica May 2016 #34

Dredging up long-dismissed crap that he knows will be ignored. lagomorph777 May 2016 #48

Terrified of what??? Corporate666 May 2016 #39

Gentle to Hillary? leftynyc May 2016 #64

They're just plain silly. I dislike Hillary but I dismiss silly crap like that automatically. lagomorph777 May 2016 #65

But it's what you consider leftynyc May 2016 #74

"Gentle" as in looking tough but not damaging her before June 7th. lagomorph777 May 2016 #75

LOL leftynyc May 2016 #76

Trump's attacks are too silly to persuade anybody lagomorph777 May 2016 #77

And your evidence of that would leftynyc May 2016 #79

He persuaded Republicans (i.e. clueless rubes) - Dems are not so gullible. lagomorph777 May 2016 #82

Yup - I'll agree with that leftynyc May 2016 #84

Because we're in 5th grade? AirmensMom May 2016 #14

I think MoRonTah didn't use enough smilies. lagomorph777 May 2016 #50

He knows Bernie will squash him. lagomorph777 May 2016 #12

Because Hillary just looks so much worse in many different ways if this goes down. Matt_in_STL May 2016 #42

Maybe Bill gave him another call. So he backed out? jwirr May 2016 #43

Desperation has become the hallmark of her campaign nt vintx May 2016 #44

oh dear. silly us. I thought it was news not gossip. Anyone have a link? Hiraeth May 2016 #54

It's a response to hard-core Clinton Hate. randome May 2016 #9

i should ask why people around here are praying for a hillary indictment on email MariaThinks May 2016 #18

I definitely don't think that's cool either. Turin_C3PO May 2016 #26

You mean like posting all those Fox News links? barrow-wight May 2016 #19

Yep. Turin_C3PO May 2016 #32

Oh, I think that answer is obvious. barrow-wight May 2016 #86

Maybe because Sanders thought he was punking Clinton... NCTraveler May 2016 #22

Was he thinking that way though? Turin_C3PO May 2016 #27

I think you might be right. NCTraveler May 2016 #36

Personally Demsrule86 May 2016 #23

He's not going to win anway thuogh. Turin_C3PO May 2016 #30

I no longer view him as positive. Cornell West & Zogby were the very last straw for me. grossproffit May 2016 #35

I agreed with you at first Demsrule86 May 2016 #37

I'm not happy either way, but I did poke at a few people here because they took Trump seriously OKNancy May 2016 #29

You were smarter than me and others including some at Salon Demsrule86 May 2016 #38

Bernie Punked Trump ... Myrina May 2016 #46

I'm not laughing. Nonhlanhla May 2016 #60

Trump chickens out of debating Bernie lol! riderinthestorm May 2016 #62

What 'punked"? Did Trump lie when Kimmel asked him to debate Sanders and Trump said yes? Sunlei May 2016 #67

I was just quoting what some have said, that Bernie got "punked". Turin_C3PO May 2016 #68

So Trump lied when he said he would debate. I guess Trump got scared when Sanders accepted. Sunlei May 2016 #69

He either lied or just wanted attention. Turin_C3PO May 2016 #70

Because Sanders had the temerity to stand in the way of the final ascension of oligarchy. VulgarPoet May 2016 #80

I'm not sure why it's considered a "punking" mythology May 2016 #81

Yeah that's what I think too. Turin_C3PO May 2016 #85

The only one punked here was Hillary. Just like Trump, she too is afraid to debate Bernie. Thanks B Calm May 2016 #83
