Donald Trump Versus Bernie Sanders!

Note: Trump hands not to scale!

When Bernie Sanders first appeared on The Strangest Adventures he was just another Democratic presidential candidate; a lot has changed since then. Senator Sanders went from one of five democratic presidential candidates to one of two. As it turns out many voters, young people in particular, have responded to his populist platform like affordable college, expanding social security, raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour, ending the militarization of the police and many other ideas with increasing appeal, particularly with the young folks and far left, no surprise that Sanders calls himself a Democratic Socialist. He’s giving Hillary Clinton some unexpected competition; they are tied in polls for California. That’s mighty good for a candidate that was predicted to have dropped out by now!

And everyone knows presidential nominee Donald J. Trump, orange faced delusional narcissist billionaire xenophobic real estate developer. He is accused of ignoring reality but it isn't so much that Trump doesn't know the facts; he can’t possibly be as ignorant as he appears to be. He's just that he’s brutish and he simply doesn't care about the facts. For example he told voters in Fresno California on May 21^st that he could fix their water shortage, declaring that: “There is no drought!” But without a doubt the drought exists in California. The state had one of its driest years ever in 2015. The unprecedented drought covers nearly 95 percent of the state, and in the past several years they’ve had wildfires, water rationing, and snowless mountaintops. The reality is apparent but Donald ignores the facts and bullies onward and upward.

It depicts Mark XX 25” It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.” Window features Trump’s motto Dives Vincet.

Many people have wondered what would happen if Bernie Sanders debated Donald J. Trump; which one would win?  The Comedy Central show @Midnight presented a fictional comedic debate with James Adomian as Bernie Sanders and Anthony Atamanuik as Donald Trump.  As it turns out these two comedians have been touring the country performing this live.

Which leads to the time Trump was recently on the Jimmy Kimmel Show. The conversation eventually led to the idea of Trump debating Sanders. See Hillary Clinton had rejected the offer of a debate with Sanders on Fox News before the California election.  Kimmel asked Donald if he would debate Sanders who was Kimmel’s guest the next evening. Trump’s first comment was “how much is he going to pay me?” Eventually Bernie answered in a tweet “game on!” But we never got this dream team debate in real life. Look here to read the details.

One size fits most pinheads and primates too!

But today Senator Bernie Sanders faces a different foe, Hillary Clinton. Primaries occur today in California, Iowa, Montana, New Jersey, New Mexico, and South Dakota and a caucus in North Dakota. This is the last of the major voting and according to the numbers Clinton has all but wrapped up the nomination but Bernie vows to continue on no matter what happens. The likely scenario is he’ll lose but the Senator was not expected to last this long. That he did is a testimony to his message and indicates many voters are dissatisfied with the current system. Perhaps Sanders planted seeds which may blossom some day; only the future knows for sure!

Allen West in 2016?

It's not too early to look at possible presidential candidates for 2016. Former Representative Allen West of Florida is something that is often hard to find in the Republican Party, a highly decorated veteran! He failed in 2008 the first time he ran for the House of Representatives but succeeded when he tried again in 2010, a banner year for tea partiers like West. However, in 2012 West ran for reelection in Florida's 18^th District but lost to a bland Democrat that won for not being Allen West! West seems to hate Muslims, he’s often angry and he’s a favorite son of the Tea Parties.

A day after receiving a ringing endorsement from horny embarrassment Herman Cain, who suggested that West would be a great choice for Vice President, West addressed a group of 100 supporters at a meeting in a community center in Jensen Florida on Tuesday April 10, 2012. He had something shocking and delusional to say.

“I believe there's about 78 to 81 members of the Democrat Party who are members of the Communist Party. It's called the Congressional Progressive Caucus.”

The Democrats got angry about this but Allen West felt no regret, he referenced his words in a fundraising e-mail. This all seems to have been planned.

"You know I am not afraid to speak the truth. That's why I’m the number one target of liberals and their friends in the media who are going completely nuts about my comments at a recent Townhall meeting, I need your help to fight back and stand up against the corrupt liberal media as they attempt cover for their left-wing allies."

The email directed readers to a page on West's campaign website and asks people to help support his "conservative army."

This was not the first time West had made headlines for provocative remarks.  December 2011, he said the Democratic Party's spin machine would have made Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels proud. At a dinner speech in January 2012, West told a crowd that President Obama and other top Democratic leaders should take their campaign message and "get the hell out of the United States of America." Allen West seems to be a stereotype, an angry tea partier!

Ex-Representative West could bring some passion to the 2016 Republican platform; he has “positives” such as his tea party connections, veteran’s status and a cult following that other candidates lack. Here at The Strangest Adventures we love it when politicians speak their minds. Pure Comedy Gold!
