Race to the bottom: Who’s actually debating in California?

Hillary in hot water

Reports released earlier this week indicate Hillary should testify in front of the House of Representatives regarding her use of a personal email account for official messages. Subsequently, Clinton has declined to debate Sanders in California, the state whose upcoming primary election may determine the Democratic nominee.

The Sanders’ campaign seems quite disgruntled but Clinton is the real loser as Trump has offered to debate Sanders (and since backed out) and suggested donating some of the advertising profits to women’s rights charities. As if Hillary wasn’t snubbed enough, her husband stepped up and interrupted a student enjoying a meal to debate about Bernie Sanders for 30 minutes. Then again, the Clintons have never been good at handling discrete personal matters…

Bernie meets Twitter

Senator Sanders has tried, over the course of his campaign, to do his best in engaging the masses through social media. He has consistently been overshadowed by Trump:

But at least #FeelTheBern is better than #TrumpTrain. Hashtags couldn’t rescue Sanders from embarrassment however after he tweeted a cringe song about superdelegates. The tweet containing the awful song has been deleted, but you can

Apparently Sanders was born in an era before we all learned to play it cool in front of our crush, or in his case the DNC. Maybe he can slide into Trump’s DMs and learn how to subtweet… @HillaryClinton amirite? #wagegap #primariesarerigged

Trump the theater director

Trump’s rallies throughout the campaign have been a hot button media item. While most people are probably attending to get a closer look at his combover, there are rumors that people are listening to his speeches as well. Of course it’s probably hard to hear him over the chants of protesters.

Demonstrators in New Mexico had to be subdued by policemen who came on horseback. Given his affinity for theatrics, perhaps Trump organized these specific offices to demonstrate how he thinks Mexico will fight back if we build a wall. After all, the protesters would’ve easily been protected by a wall – this isn’t Game of Thrones.

Barack’s new pad

It’s no secret that in six short months, Obama is getting ousted out of the White House. With a daughter taking a gap year and another still in school, he’s opted to settle in the suburbs near DC. Rumor has it (cue Adele singing) that Obama’s new pad has a whopping nine bedrooms.

Even if each of their dogs gets a bedroom, that still leaves three bedrooms up for grabs. My theory: he couldn’t bring down the cost of college so maybe he’ll let students stay at his place for free? Michelle is pretty cool and I’m sure she’d appreciate new recruits for her Let’s Move campaign army. Any takers?
