Bernie Sanders: Trump Is ‘Trying to Divide Us by the Color of Our Skin’

Sunday on CBS’s “Face The Nation‏,” Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) accused President Donald Trump of “trying to divide us up by the color of our skin.”

Partial transcript as follows:

JOHN DICKERSON: Joining us now is Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, he’s in Burlington. Senator Sanders, you tweeted something this morning about the president and his meetings overseas. You said, quote, “President Trump has never met a leader of an authoritarian nation that he didn’t like.”

And you named Russia, China, Saudi Arabia. Is that really fair? President Obama hosted a state dinner with the Chinese president. He was quite solicitous of the Saudi king. And he tried a reset with Putin in Russia. Isn’t this what presidents do?

Yet again, Bernie confuses the sitting president with his predecessor.

It is called projection, blame the other side for what you are doing yourself

Bernie wants to take hard earned money from white Americans and give it to those who aren't. If that's not separation by color than I don't know what is.

NO Bernie! That is what you are trying to do!

Bernie. Your own party doesn't want you. Just go away.

Caught in the incongruity of what he was saying, he did the predictable. The #1 democrat response when caught in lies, deception, and BS.
Scream "racist!!" and deflect the conversation.
Doesn't matter if it's true. Just say it wait for the lemmings to run over the cliff.
Keep it up.

They STILL haven't learned.

Bernie (and I call you Bernie because you don't rate being called Senator or Mister) you are greatly mistaken. There are many, many persons in our country now trying to divide us by the color of our skin.....and they are all liberal democrats. That's the only thing they have to live on, to prey on, the skin color issue. If there's not a problem, then they create one......if there is a problem, they try to make it worse rather than work to fix it. Mr Trump is not trying to divide, he's trying to repair. Why won't you try to do the same???????

Such a crock. Democraps are the divisive ones. You've NEVER heard Trump say any such thing!

Hillary divided this country, with her deplorables comment, Trump being in collusion with the Russians, and her e-mails leaked to our enemies and all over cyber space, the murder of 4 soldiers in Bengazi, if this is truly how Bernie feels than all respect is lost for him too. Glad Hillary took the election away from him, he doesn't have the balls to go after the one who wronged him but make cheap shots at our President.
