Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) asked his supporters Sunday to not engage in acts of violence.
“Any person who is a Bernie Sanders supporter, please, do not in any way, shape or form engage in violence,” Sanders said on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “That is absolutely not what this campaign is about.”
Sanders’ comment came after he was asked about violent protesters who have appeared at presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump’s campaign rallies with pro-Sanders signs.
Trump was also asked about the violent protesters at his rallies during his Sunday news interviews and he mentioned Sanders’ name.
“Well you’ve got Bernie signs in there. Bernie signs, the same signs that they use at their rallies,” Trump said on “State of the Union.”
Too bad he couldn’t bring himself to use the same words when the violence was aimed at Clinton supporters.
It’s like he’s 6 weeks behind in news. Does he know that Prince died?
Doubtful that he knows who Prince was.
Watch the interview. When he was asked about the protests, he claimed that they were “bad people … sent by the Democrats.” Asked for evidence, he cited the Bernie signs.
Excuse me Donald, neither Bernie nor the majority of his supporters in CA are registered Democrats.
Looks like Sanders is winning the race…to surpass John McCain as Sunday talk show, go-to, invective aimed at clouds, guest geezer.
Edit. I’m almost 69 and as a person of annums, I get to call these guys geezers.
Second Edit. And you grammar nazis out there. I know the plural is anni. I know what I did. Annums is more euphonious imho, viz. poetic license.
