WATCH: Bernie Sanders On Trump: ‘This Guy Is A Fraud’
Senator Bernie Sanders on Sunday blasted Donald Trump for being a fraud for appointing billionaires to his Cabinet after campaigning against corruption on Wall Street.
On CNN’s State of the Union Sanders said, “It is hard not to laugh to see President Trump alongside these Wall Street guys.”
“I don’t mean to be disrespectful. This guy is a fraud. This guy ran for president of the United States saying ‘I, Donald Trump, I’m going to take on Wall Street. These guys are getting away with murder.’ Then suddenly he appoints all these billionaires,” Sanders said.
“This is a guy who ran for president, saying, ‘I’m not going to cut Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid,’” Sanders continued. “And then he appoints all of these guys who are precisely going to cut Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.”
Sanders also said, “I think he’s going to sell out the middle class and the working class of this country.”
