I think what people are missing with the 10k bet is it’s not really about if the bet was for 5 bucks or 1 million dollars much less 10 grand.
It looks very unpresidential to try to make a bet during a nationally televised Debate for the highest office in the land. It borderlines as childish behavior..
I mean..We knew enough not to try that stunt on the high school debating team.. Really.. So far every single debate has been amateur hour..
