Jimmy Kimmel has emerged as this week's most unlikely interlocutor in the frenzied dialogue of this campaign season. On Wednesday night, Donald Trump told the talk show host that he would "love to" debate Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders — noting, in Trumpian fashion, that the televised program would "have such high ratings." A day later, Kimmel asked Sanders his thoughts on the matter, and Sanders confirmed that he was on board.
