I certainly think that the American people need to understand what this president has done, his contempt for the law.
Bernie Sanders
The Public Record
Bernie Sanders is an American politician and activist who has served as the junior United States senator from Vermont since 2007. A member of the Independent party, Sanders is known for his progressive policies and advocacy for social justice, healthcare reform, and income equality. He previously served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1991 to 2007, where he was the first independent elected to the House in 40 years. Throughout his career, Sanders has been a vocal critic of economic inequality and corporate influence in politics.
I think we have a president who neither understands the Constitution of the United States or respects the Constitution, somebody that does not believe in the separation of powers and somebody who thinks he's above the law.
It is my very strong belief that the United States must reject that path of hatred and divisiveness, and instead find the moral conviction to choose a different path, a higher path, and a path of compassion, justice and love.
I don't think we should be investigating the investigators. I think that's an effort on the part of Trump to deflect attention from the problems that his campaign had.
What we need to do is to figure out a way that we develop a trade policy, which is fair for American workers.
We have picked sides and we have gone with the dictatorship and the brutal regime in Saudi Arabia.
Trump has been very, very provocative towards Iran. He's trying to egg them on.
I think that we have got to do everything that we can to see that we do not get involved in a war in Iran.
No war with Iran. This would be an unmitigated disaster. We must stop Trump and his national security adviser John Bolton, someone who likes endless wars.
I do feel indignation and anger against a president who told the American people -- you remember this -- he would provide health care to everybody and yet he worked overtime to try to throw 32 million Americans off of the health care that…
I think what we need to do with all of the candidates, have an issue-oriented campaign, not personal attacks, but talk about what we have done in our political lives, what we want to do as president, and how we're going to transform our…
While the rich get much richer, while corporate profits are soaring, you are seeing tens of millions of workers struggling to make ends meet.
Don't think you're going to get a contract if you layoff, shut down plant and layoff American workers.
We need new trade policies which protect the interests of American workers and not just the CEOs of large corporations.
We need a president who brings people together as Americans, not tries to divide them up.
I don't want a summary of the Mueller report. I want the whole damn report.
The American people understand that our current economic system is rigged and that our campaign finance system is corrupt.
When we stand together, and when we have the courage to take on the powerful special interests who have so much control over our political and economic life, there is nothing, nothing, nothing that we cannot accomplish.
We need to end the disgrace of having more people in jail than any other country on Earth.
I am running for president because now, more than ever, we need leadership that brings us together, not divides us up.
We need to invest in education and jobs for our young people, not more jails and incarceration.
Today we talk about justice and today we talk about racism. And I must tell you, it gives me no pleasure to tell you that we now have a President of the United States who is a racist.
It's time for the president to grow up and to listen to the needs of the American people, and not just his own ego.
