Best-Selling Author Brad Thor Hits Donald Trump With $100K Debate Challenge — Here's Who He Wants to Moderate

New York Times best-selling author Brad Thor publicly challenged Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump to a debate on Thursday, vowing to donate $100,000 to Young America’s Foundation if the billionaire accepts the challenge.

Thor claims Trump is not a “true conservative” and he would go as far as “formally declaring my candidacy” to get on a stage to debate Trump on the issues.

As a true conservative, I allege that @realDonaldTrump is anything but, and publicly challenge him to a one-on-one, open and public debate.

If it takes formally declaring my candidacy to get on stage to shred Trump, consider this my declaration. #Thor2016

He even sent a taunting message directly to Trump:

Hey, @realDonaldTrump --You're no conservative, no Republican, and I'll meet you anywhere, anytime to debate.

If @realDonaldTrump will meet me one-on-one to debate, I'll donate $100,000 to @yaf in support of Ronald Reagan's conservative legacy.

Thor later suggested conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh as the debate moderator:

In fact, let's do the Thor v. Trump debate live on air in FL at #EIB headquarters w/ @rushlimbaugh as the moderator. @DavidLimbaugh

I hate the GOP & D.C. establishment too, but am smart enough not to fall for a democrat like Trump who currently happens to be bashing them.

No word so far from Trump on the challenge.
