Trump mistakes Sanders’ Positions For His Own
The Hill ^ | 2/17/2016 | Mark Hensch

Posted on 02/17/2016 8:46:33 PM PST by agrarianlady

"That candidate is considered a political outsider by all of the pundits," [Mika] said. "He's tapping into the anger of voters, delivers a populist message. "He believes everyone in the country should have healthcare [and] he advocates for hedge fund managers to pay higher taxes," Brzezinski added. "He is drawing thousands of people at his rallies and bringing in a lot of new voters into the political process. Who am I describing?"

"You're describing Donald Trump," the outspoken billionaire responded.

"Actually, I was describing Bernie Sanders," Brzezinski countered.

You are over stretching this point. Trump has said we will not let people “die in the streets”. Further he has espoused free market solutions with the ability of health insurers to compete across state lines.

The description was not a trick and there is nothing wrong with describing Trump as an outsider.

No it does not prove that Trump equals Sanders. They capitalist vs communist / pro military vs cutting military /anti illegal immigration vs open borders and so on.

"single payer healthcare"

And evidently you have nothing left but lies. Trump is on the record, repeatedly, for private free market solutions.

I see a good Cruz ad coming. I wonder if Trump will threaten to sue. I also see a general election ad coming if he is the nominee.

Your boy speaks the truth about himself everyday. Universal health care, PP does great things, big Pharma needs to be had, Scalia wrong on Affirmative Action......to name a few.

Trump - fighting for the Conservative cause since........June 2015!

These Trump liars are out in force. Donald Trump shares another feature with his fellow Liberals: psychological projection. Trump calls people liars and blowhards while he happens to be one. Liberals always say their opponents have their odious traits.

I think that question was planned. They set it up to track Bernie supporters to Trump in open primaries like SC. It makes sense. Trump answered with his name on purpose.

Well they didn’t offer details of the differences between how to accomplish those things.

Your confused son. I know you think it cool to follow these unethical cruz supporters around. But I assure you, you will regret it when you grow-up.

OUCH! That’s gotta hoit.

It’s true, though. All true. And she forgot to add in hates free trade deals. There is no Republican out there more similar to Sanders on the issues.

That statement is just ridiculous, he did not say that nor did Heidi, they know better, but you can twist it all you want, comes to nada to a Christian who knows better. May you too one day experience the Face of God....

I see the face of GOD in a new born baby, I see the face of God in an old person, I see the face of God in most Christians, I see the Face of God in all of his Creation, He is a SPIRIT and HIS spirit is everywhere for those with eyes to see and ears to hear.

The better questions is to ask why are Trump supporters so afraid of God, a Christian or Ted Cruz? Cruz is SO FAR behind TRUMP & can't possibly be a threat!

Being afraid of GOD can be a learning experience, for it is the beginning of Wisdom.....why make fun of HIM?

How bad could Bernie or Trump be as president? Really, how much harm could they do?

Angry about what is the key. Apparently if you like scapegoating rich people and their corporations for why you’ve failed at life and want them to pay for your free stuff, Sanders and Trump are your guys.
