WATCH: Sanders Slams Trump For Failing To Drain The Swamp
On Sunday, Senator Sanders slammed Donald Trump for failing to “drain the swamp,” and breaking all of his economic promises.
Sanders on “Meet the Press” said, “There’s a whole lot of discussion about the racist, in my view, immigration policies of the Trump administration, which are based on anti-Muslim ideology, which are doing us enormous harm all over the world — something else is going on at the exact same moment.”
He went on to say, “President Trump is backtracking on every economic promise that he made to the American people.”
Sanders then moved to reminding people about Donald Trump’s campaign promises about protecting Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. “So what’s going on right now, we’re talking a whole lot about immigration,” Sanders said.
Sanders went on to say, “He’s appointing Wall Street bankers, the same people he told us he would oppose, to very high positions … we’re talking a whole lot about dividing the American people up. We’re supposed to hate Muslims, we’re supposed to hate Latinos.”
What ever happened to ‘drain the swamp?’
Then Sanders turned to Trump’s promise to “drain the swamp.” Sanders said, “Meanwhile, he was going to clean the swamp. Remember that?”
“Well guess who’s running the swamp right now. The same exact Wall Street guys from Goldman Sachs who were there in the past.”
“Do you want billionaires and Wall Street executives to be running this economy,” he said, “or do we want economic policies that work for working families and the middle class?”
