CNN host Dana Bash told Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) Sunday that she would give him another try at answering how rival Hillary Clinton favored big banks following donations with ties to Wall Street.
Bash said Sanders didn’t initially answer the question at the debate last week.
“So let’s try it again. Can you point to a decision that Hillary Clinton made as senator that shows she favored banks because of the donations she received?” Bash asked on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
Sanders said she voted for “bad bankruptcy legislation.”
“But — and whether that is a result of contributions from Wall Street or elsewhere, you know, no one can say that, Dana,” Sanders continued. “But what I would also repeat to you is the most important issue is what is your stand on Wall Street?”
‘I can tell you this, receiving funds in 2012 from Wall Street caused her to vote for them in 2004 on a vote she missed because her husband was sick. Not only am I bad with details, I’m a little fuzzy on timelines.’
Well that was weak. I do love Bernie and love his passion and he is an authentic guy, but he is not going to get the nomination and as much as I like him, he can’t hold a candle to HRC’s qualifications to be President. He is a one trick pony.
I saw some really interesting interviews with the man on the street over the weekend and what I was surprised to hear were the people who really like Bernie and his message, but they think HRC would be a better president. So it gives me hope there are thoughtful people out there
This guy is so not ready for Prime Time. Just go away, Bernie.
It is quite a leap isn’t it.
Bumper sticker Sanders stays true to form.
