Stephanopoulos: welcome Donald Trump

Trump: nice to talk to you Jim

Stephanopoulos: Hillary says

you're ISIS' top recruiter

Trump: that's not true but if I were an ISIS

recruiter I would definitely be the top guy

because I can sell to anybody

Stephanopoulos: I see

Trump: she lied!

Stephanopoulos: so it's not true?

Trump: she just made it up!

Stephanopoulos: Sanders said

you called Mexicans rapists

Trump: also not true - I love the Mexicans!

Stephanopoulos: so Sanders also lied?

Trump: politicians all lie – that's why 

I don't like them

Stephanopoulos: but you lie all the time

Trump: that's not true!

Stephanopoulos: that's also a lie

Trump: no it's not

Stephanopoulos: no one cheered on

9/11 but you keep saying it happened

Trump: yes it did – it happened

all over the world

Stephanopoulos: but not in America

Trump: there were articles about

allegations about it therefore it's

a fact that I saw it on television

Stephanopoulos: you're lying again right now

Trump: don't tell me that you little pipsqueak

Stephanopoulos: you admire Vladimir

Putin but he invaded Ukraine

Trump: who gives a fuck about Ukraine?

Stephanopoulos: I care

Trump: Obama doesn't like

Putin which hurts America

Stephanopoulos: I see

Trump: I love Putin – frankly he's very nice

Stephanopoulos: fair enough

Trump: I accept his praise of

me on behalf of all of America

Stephanopoulos: so you believe 

world leaders need to get along for 

the good of America

Trump: exactly – this is why Obama is

a bad President – he is not friends with Putin

Stephanopoulos: but you have alienated 

at least two of our closest allies - 

Britain and Germany

Trump: fuck you twerp

Stephanopoulos: could you elaborate on that

Trump: Obama is foreign-born Muslim

who loves Muslims who all hate us and

want to attack us and kill us

Stephanopoulos: got it

Trump: Muslims flew planes

into the World Trade Center!

Stephanopoulos: we all know what happened

Trump: all their neighbors and families 

and friends knew what they were going 

to do and did not nothing

Stephanopoulos: perhaps

Trump: George you're a politically correct 

weasel and because of people like 

you we'll all get killed

Stephanopoulos: Putin murders journalists

Trump: who cares – the U.S. murders 

lots of people too!

Stephanopoulos: who does the U.S. murder?

Trump: Hillary Clinton murdered 

people in Libya!

Stephanopoulos: that's not murder

Trump: be fair to Putin – how do you 

know Vlad killed anyone?

Stephanopoulos: Mitt Romney said he did

Trump: that guy is a loser

Stephanopoulos: true

Trump: what's the proof my buddy 

Vlad killed anybody?

Stephanopoulos: there are allegations

Trump: he hasn't killed anyone you liar!

Stephanopoulos: how do you know that?

Trump: he's always denied it!

Stephanopoulos: oh okay then

Trump: he wasn't caught with a 

gun or anything!

Stephanopoulos: what killing has 

America done?

Trump: Bush and Cheney murdered 

lots of people!

Stephanopoulos: probably

Trump: Bush empowered Iran 

and created ISIS!

Stephanopoulos: that checks out

Trump: then we killed more people in Libya!

Stephanopoulos: okay but

Trump: the last Republican President was

incompetent and stupid and he ran our

country into the ground

Stephanopoulos: are you saying there's a

moral equivalence with Russia and the U.S.?

Trump: leave Putin alone! He's a great guy!

Stephanopoulos: you seem to determined

to defend Vladimir Putin

Trump: he totally denied it!

Stephanopoulos: who has 

America murdered?

Trump: George W. Bush murdered

lots of American soldiers

Stephanopoulos: that's quite a claim

Trump: we should just take the oil!

Stephanopoulos: I see

Trump: we're run by people

who don't have a clue

Stephanopoulos: arguably true

Trump: those idiots want to get us 

stuck in a stupid war in the Middle 

East – what morons!

Stephanopoulos: what would you do about ISIS?

Trump: invade the middle east and

stay there until we take all their oil!

Stephanopoulos: problem solved

Trump: Iran took Iraq's oil – it belongs to us!

Stephanopoulos: I'll just point out

Iran is backed by your friend Putin

Trump: Iran is backed by us because

we're going to lift sanctions on Iran

Stephanopoulos: you're referring

to the nuclear deal

Trump: we empowered Iran –

Russia is not empowering Iran!

Stephanopoulos: that's another lie

Trump: with $150 billion they can

buy all the nukes they want

Stephanopoulos: I can't tell if

you love Russia or not

Trump: we have empowered

Iran much more than Russia

Stephanopoulos: you cannot possibly 

be fucking serious

Trump: we didn't even get our prisoners back!

Stephanopoulos: Russia was part of that deal

Trump: because they're smart 

and we're dumb

Stephanopoulos: all right

Trump: they're selling Iran these

beautiful missiles – really classy stuff

Stephanopoulos: it's our fault Russia

is selling missiles to Iran?

Trump: of course!

Stephanopoulos: for real?

Trump: if I was Russia I would

have done that deal too!

Stephanopoulos: thanks for coming Donald

Trump: fuck you loser

[ break ]

Stephanopoulos: welcome Senator Sanders

Sanders: glad to be here David

Stephanopoulos: Donald Trump 

called you out

Sanders: I think he's a pathological liar

Stephanopoulos: pathological?

Sanders: yes

Stephanopoulos: strong words

Sanders: he said he saw it people in

New Jersey cheering on television

Stephanopoulos: right

Sanders: they archive stuff on tv right?

Stephanopoulos: I believe so

Sanders: so we know it never

happened and he keep saying it did 

and that's a pathology

Stephanopoulos: perhaps

Sanders: he called Mexicans criminals and rapists

Stephanopoulos: sort of

Sanders: people have legitimate fears of terrorism

Sanders: and he's blaming Muslims

which is terrible scapegoating

Stephanopoulos: then why is doing so well?

Sanders: he's a demagogue

Stephanopoulos: a buit

Sanders: he wants to keep poor

people down and play on fear of Muslims

Stephanopoulos: how do you combat that?

Sanders: explain to poor people this billionaire

is abusing their fears to give their 

money to rich people

Stephanopoulos: what about the data breach

Sanders: this was not the first time

it happened!

Stephanopoulos: do you have any evidence

Clinton took your information

Sanders: no but you never know

Stephanopoulos: you believe the DNC is

trying to sabotage your campaign

Sanders: what other word would you use?

Stephanopoulos: I dunno

Sanders: it was a total overreaction!

Stephanopoulos: I see

Sanders: they should have met with

us all said we have a problem let's not

bicker about who took information from who

Stephanopoulos: how will you pay

for free college for everyone?

Sanders: tax Wall Street

Stephanopoulos: okay

Sanders: we're going to build bridges

and roads by taxing offshore corporations

Stephanopoulos: and expand health care

Sanders: yes and have paid family leave

Stephanopoulos: how do you pay for it?

Sanders: tax everyone $1.61

Stephanopoulos: how are you different

on foreign policy from Clinton?

Sanders: I disagree on no-fly zone in Syria

Stephanopoulos: all right then

Sanders: this is a battle for the soul of Islam!

Stephanopoulos: whoa

Sanders: Qatar is rich and they

can pay for destroying ISIS

Stephanopoulos: thanks for coming Bernie

Sanders: you too Jack
