After All His Conditions Were Met, Trump Pulls Out
Bernie Sanders wants to know what Donald Trump is afraid of. The GOP presumptive nominee minutes ago pulled out of a debate with the Senator from Vermont after agreeing to one just days earlier.
“I hope that he changes his mind again. Mr. Trump is known to change his mind many times in a day,” Sanders told reporters a few minutes ago.

“Trump,” Sanders said, shaking his fists to mimic the brash billionaire, “goes around, he’s a bully, he’s a big tough guy,” Sanders said.Â
“Well, Mr. Trump, what are you afraid of?,” Sanders cajoled.
Watch:
Trump had demanded a $10 million fee for charity, and that condition was met Friday afternoon.
UPDATE: 5:45 PM EDT –
Sen. Sanders released a statement and this video:
“In recent days, Donald Trump has said he wants to debate, he doesn’t want to debate, he wants to debate and, now, he doesn’t want to debate.
“Given that there are several television networks prepared to carry this debate and donate funds to charity, I hope that he changes his mind once again and comes on board.
