‘Colbert Report’: Trump Dumps Debate

Colbert Nation

The Donald has managed to stir up a sideshow for himself again, having briefly flirted (and hinted anew) about running for the nation’s highest office, but yet again he’s backed out by calling off the debate that all but a couple of GOP candidates had withdrawn from themselves. Luckily, Stephen Colbert has an alternative in mind for a debate of his own.

C’mon TD, the Lawrence Lessig interview on the Daily Shsow was much more worthy of consideration than this. His book “Republic, Lost” appears to provide real, first step solutions to our problems with corruption that Sheer often writes about.

Who in their right mind would waste enough time before a media screen to
become familiar enough with The Donald’s ‘style’ to come to appreciate this bit?
