WASHINGTON, Dec. 27 (UPI) -- Bernie Sanders said he thinks he can win over Donald Trump supporters because he can also channel the "legitimate" anger of "working-class people."
In a CBS interview released Sunday, Sanders said many Trump supporters are people who are angry and fearful due to decreasing wages and the rising costs of tuition, among other issues.
"What Trump has done with some success is taken that anger, taken those fears, which are legitimate, and converted them into anger against Mexicans, anger against Muslims," Sanders said, adding that he would use that anger to support things like an increase in the minimum wage....

What a nutcase
It’s pols like you, Bern, is the reason we’re so damn angry
D’s know they HAVE to get someone else on the ticket instead of Hillary
(she’s got more rotten baggage than the Tehran airport...tick, tick...tick...)
Bernie has a lot of ‘flair’ — he appears likable (whether WE like his politics or not, obviously NOT)...style...not quite same level as Mr. Trump, but 1,000 times more than Hillary... and the D’s know it.
Bernie’s also more honest (appearances, anyway...) than Hillary (lies like a wet rug)
I think the D’s would love to find someone younger than the old commie Bernie, and its AMAZING there aren’t 20 possible candidates running for the D nomination!!!! !!!! but if they are all out of ‘talent’ — or if nobody good wants to tarnish themselves with the D party label anymore...... then
I would not be at all surprised if they pitch Hiilary...for old Bernie the Red
almost everyone in the D party is sick of Hillary...
Clinton really needs some competition. Two retards just isn’t cutting it.
As opposed to illegitimate anger?
BTW, glad to see the weather didn’t get you.
He for building a bigger, more expansive FSA (Free Stuff Army) and he thinks Trump supporters will buy into that ?
That’s like saying I can win over Al Sharpton by agreeing whites are all racist.
Not bloody likely !
Bernie is out of his mind! If he wasn’t, he wouldn’t be a damned SOCIALIST/STINKING COMMIE !
I see. Only communists can have legitimate anger. Got it Sanders. You disgust me you old rotten socialist.
That’s LIBEL and also pretty damned STUPID.
Same thing
The Dems have so few candidates because few want to cross the Clinton machine.
Democratic socialism is suicide.
Marxist communism is murder.
Either way you are dead.
Ah, The Bern. So good at being a pain in everyone's side.
The biggest problem with Bernie is he actually believes all the socialist mumbo-jumbo he spews. He also seems to be able to convince those not firmly rooted in reality that it makes sense.
Indie Bernie. Run run run.
Well said.
DRUGS! That’s the only thing that explains Comrade Sanders’ ridiculous comment. But you gotta love the aggravation he is causing Granny. Go Comrade Go!
