Trump, Sanders Seemingly Agree to Debate
26 May 16
onald Trump and Bernie Sanders have seemingly agreed in principle to give the world the debate it's been waiting for.
Appearing on ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" in a show that aired Wednesday night, Trump said he would be willing to debate Sanders if proceeds from such an event went to charity.
Within minutes of the statement airing, Sanders had agreed to the idea.
"Game on. I look forward to debating Donald Trump in California before the June 7 primary," he tweeted early Thursday morning.

As of very early Thursday morning, the campaigns had made no formal announcements about reaching any specific agreement for an event. However, Sanders is scheduled to appear on Kimmel's late-night talk show Thursday night.
