Funniest shit I've seen in a long time: Jeb! forgot to renew his domain, so Trump bought it and redirected it to his site. The guy may be a delusional, self-absorbed maniac, but he may just be the internet's greatest troll.

Sanders Accepts Clinton's Challenge on Wall Street Speeches

ELKO, Nev. – U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders' campaign on Friday urged Hillary Clinton to keep her word and release the transcripts of speeches she gave to Wall Street firms "when everybody else does."

"Sen. Sanders accepts Clinton's challenge. He will release all of the transcripts of all of his Wall Street speeches. That's easy. The fact is, there weren't any. Bernie gave no speeches to Wall Street firms. He wasn't paid anything while Secretary Clinton made millions, including $675,000 for three paid speeches to Goldman Sachs," said Sanders' spokesman Michael Briggs.

"So now we hope Secretary Clinton keeps her word and releases the transcripts of her speeches. We hope she agrees that the American people deserve to know what she told Wall Street behind closed doors," Briggs added.

Clinton was paid $21.7 million in fees for speeches to groups including Wall Street firms, big corporations and trade associations for 92 talks she delivered from 2013 through last April in the run-up to formally launching her second presidential bid.

A question about what she said in those speeches was raised on Thursday during an MSNBC-Telemundo town hall in Las Vegas. A questioner in the audience asked her about why she won't release the transcripts. Clinton said she would hand over her speech transcripts if other public officials did the same. "I'm happy to release anything I have when everybody else does the same," Clinton said. Sanders is "everybody else" in the Democratic presidential field of candidates.

During a Feb. 4 Democratic presidential debate, Clinton was asked if she would release the transcripts of all her paid speeches. "I will look into it. I don't know the status, but I will certainly look into it," she said at the time.

This so-called issue is beyond irrelevant.  Bernie losing Nevada is the beginning of the end.

[VDB]

It's relevant-ish. It's certainly fair to wonder what kind of things Hillary Clinton, who claims to be tougher on Wall St. than Bernie (lol), actually says to Wall St. banks when she talks to them.

Also, her answer is lame. Either say "that's none of your business" or show some leadership by releasing your transcripts first.

It's irrelevant in the sense that will have zero impact on the race. Zero.

Riiight.  Hillary so far has a tie, an epic loss, and a barely eeked out win.  They are tied for delegates.  Bernie might as well hang it up!  Its all over now, baby blue!

Eta:  that wasnt meant as a personal jab at mehead.  Its just the same narrative i hear spewed from all the talking heads and its total crap.

[mehead]

He got crushed in Nevada with minorities and it's only going to get worse in the south. And Hillary is going to get the vast majority of the super delegates, which is huge. Win, tie, barely lost, whatever. Doesn't matter. It's about the delegates. Calling it like I see it.

And Hillary is actually ahead of Sanders in delegates right now 502-70.

[VDB]

Hillary's presumed (and sometimes demonstrated) strong lead with minorities does puzzle me. On the issues you'd think Sanders should be their guy. That's especially with respect to criminal justice reform which, let's face it, we in the U.S.A. do a pretty good job of wielding like a blunt instrument against dark-skinned people and, far as I can tell, Bernie speaks much more genuinely about than Hillary.

time to fess up.  you're chris matthews, aren't you?

[mbw]

ok, ok, you were right.  I can't believe there was actually a time Trump was the front runner, until he said something sexist and the Republican voters finally dismissed him.  I mean, the blatant racism was one thing, but an on the rag joke?!  I'm glad you were right.

Like I said, talk to me when he starts winning primaries.

OK, now I'm starting to get a little nervous...

c'mon, you can say it......

try it, it doesn't hurt.
