Speaking on CNN’s State of the Union on Sunday with host Jake Tapper, Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) pontificated that the majority of Americans prefer his leftist policies while insisting “nobody I know who is running for office talks about defunding the police.”
Sanders argued, “When you talk about raising the minimum wage to 15 bucks an hour, when you’re talking about expanding health care to all people as a human right, when you talk about effectively taking on climate change, when you talk about making public colleges and universities tuition-free, these are not far-left ideas. These are commonsense ideas that the majority of the American people support.”
