RCP Video ^ | 5-9-2019 | Tim Hains

Sen. Bernie Sanders told MSNBC on Thursday that his strategy for defeating Donald Trump in 2020 will be to speak to his working-class base and "expose him as the fraud that he is."

"Trump essentially lied to the American people," Sanders said. "Who were hurting, and for too many years the Democratic leadership ignored that pain and ignored the midwest and the flyover states."

"So you expand the base, talking to working people and young people, and we expose Trump for the fraud that he is... when he campaigned on being a friend of the working people," he explained. "You do that, I think I can win. I can defeat Trump and every poll that I have seen suggests we are ahead of Trump, and I think that is the correct way to go forward."

Bernie Sanders' proposals via socialism to 'fix' Trump base are worse medicine than normal. This is treating "the base" as ignorant yahoos easily swayed by promises of free stuff.

STEPHANIE RUHLE, MSNBC host, is really scrapping the bottom of the barrel. And the other male host, I have no idea who he is, is on par with Stephanie Ruhle. If they have +10 IQ points they would be working elsewhere.

If Trump were smart, he would push for Bernie to win the nomination, then buy Bernie another vacation home so he would throw the election. Simple.

I’m sure Trumps base is waiting with baited breath for wisdom from a loony old Marxist hypocrite.

Bernie Sanders could not even beat Hillary Clinton. I wonder how he dreams he could be Trump.

A fraud? Doesn’t that describe someone that has made over a million dollars in free market economic system and keeps pushing socialism?
