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."

I thought the next inline would be: the president pro tempore of the Senate, followed by, if need be, the speaker of the House.
Trump is not a friend to working people?
Unemployment is at 50 year low.
Female unemployment is at 30+ year low.
Hispanic unemployment is at an all-time low.
Black unemployment is at an all-time low.
And Bernie is offering reparations, free tuition, free healthcare, free, free, free. [Of course, he intends to pay for those by repealing the Trump tax cuts and raising taxes.] Yeah, Bernie is going to be stealing more votes from Trump than Hillary stole from Bernie. [/s]
Of course, all of those 245 or so Dems running for president are saying they can beat Trump.
Trump fraudulently created more than 3 million new jobs for US citizens. He created 1/4 million manufacturing jobs, fraudulently. The fraudulent paychecks workers are taking home are fraudulently paying the bills. Fraud Bernie is sliming everything he touches with his excreta. Slime away Bernie.
Bernie ain’t gonna get anywhere near the D party nomination ....and wanna know why?
just read what he keeps saying...
“the American people,” Sanders said. “.. were hurting, and for too many years the Democratic leadership ignored that pain and ignored the midwest and the flyover states”
now then,
criticizing the D party for causing the American people to hurt (8 years of Obama/Kerry/Hillary/Pelosi), and criticizing the D party for ignoring the pain it inflicted on the American people....
while the gist of the above critical statements is entirely true, Bernie’s problems are that he’s criticizing the D party bosses.....
and of course, he has nothing better than more Obama-like communistic destructive policies in 2020
Sanders is totally delusional.
He thinks he can get the Dem nomination by making it sound he can defeat president Trump.
Lying and delusional.
He’s a fraud? Okay, so we didn’t really have GDP growth of 3.2 % last year? We don’t really have record low unemployment? ISIS wasn’t defeated, and the tax cuts never happened? If you disagree with those accomplishments and would have preferred lower GDP, higher unemployment, a non-defeated ISIS, and no tax cuts then make your case Bernie. But to call Trump a fraud is just stupid.
If any pejorative will do, why stop at calling Trump a fraud, Bernie? Why not accuse him of being a pyromaniac while you’re at it? You can throw kleptomaniac and hypochondriac while you’re at it.
Sheesh. What a maroon!
The DNC and Hillary snuffed you out the last time Bernie. What makes you think you’ve got a snowball’s chance in Hell this time around?
Socialism is just another oligarchy.
ESAD Sanders you traitous commie f**k.
How in the world can a commie who embraces the hammer and sickle appeal to an American patriot who literally hugs the stars and stripes every chance he gets???
Clarification:
Should have stated: How can a commie who embraces the hammer and sickle appeal to those who support an American patriot who actually hugs the stars and stripes every chance he gets???
#canklesbitch never had a clue. And likely never will...
Bernie Sanders could not even beat Hillary Clinton.
Alas, there WILL be another female on the ticket. Question is who, and what (potus or vice) position.
Bernie, Bernie, Bernie!
As a proud and very “deplorable” member of the Presidents base, I can tell you that you could speak until you were blue in the face and yet I still would never vote for you. PERIOD!
I have a feeling R Limbaugh would give ‘the bern’ all the air time he needs and allow him to debate PDJT (IF PDJT wants to waste his time).
The hypocrisy overflows when the LIBS/Socialists condemn self made billionaires or successful people not realizing that those that they ‘hate’ basically finance their idiocy.
Also, notice how they ‘hate’ selfmade billionaires and fawn over the likes of the ‘Royal Family’
Who really gives a ratspattootie what ‘they’ name their crossbred kid? Archie? why not Jughead?
Bernie done spoke to Trump’s base, he was found wanting.
Bernie, you fu**ing piece of Shiite. I’ve known you since you were a filthy, brain dead hippy in Burlington VT, walking around in torn jeans, sleeping on park benches after your commune kicked you out.
We all thought you had mental problems then, so you go on to prove it. You and your fellow leech, Jane Sanders, have done nothing but suck the lifeblood out of everything you touch.
The best thing you can do for your adopted state is find a deep hole to crawl in and die.
