Trump lobbies Bernie Sanders supporters to join Republican Party

WASHINGTON — President Trump made an appeal for Bernie Sanders’ supporters to join the Republican Party on Wednesday after Sanders suspended his campaign — preying on tensions within the Democratic movement.

In a trio of tweets, Trump repeated his claim that the Democratic Party had done wrong by Sanders and his legion of fervent supporters, and accused former candidate Elizabeth Warren of costing him victory.

“Bernie Sanders is OUT! Thank you to Elizabeth Warren. If not for her, Bernie would have won almost every state on Super Tuesday!” Trump wrote to his 76 million followers.

Trump has repeatedly claimed that Sanders, 78 — a party outsider much like the president — was being victimized by the same Democratic establishment that tried to derail his bid against Hillary Clinton in 2016.

“This ended just like the Democrats & the DNC wanted, same as the Crooked Hillary fiasco. The Bernie people should come to the Republican Party, TRADE!” Trump wrote.

Trump should offer them a Green New Deal: make a lot of money from all the employment opportunity.

LOL. NYC is the welcoming big tent city too and look what is happening to them.

The Dem politicos feed their crony slum landlords with millions of undocumented/illegal foreigners that they then pack into crap hole apartments because they want subsidized cheap labor to corrupt elections and cheapen labor. NYC housing is too expensive to support a legitimate and legal workforce that waits on the upper crust.

What a troll! I LOVE this guy! And that's not just the beer talking.

Although I guess it could be.

They may be nuts, but I believe a lot of Sanders supporters are attracted to Trump because of his anti-Globalist streak.

Make the promise that anyone joining the Republican Party will be given HCQ in the event they contract the virus and require hospitalization.

Well stated, and coming to big cities across the USA.

We do have a problem with powerful companies and individuals stacking the legislative and bureaucratic deck in Washington and giving themselves competitive advantages over small business people. But Bernie’s cure is lunacy. Free market economics will forever be the best solution. Reducing corruption in government is very important to solving our problems; maybe repealing the 17th amendment is part of that solution so that State legislatures appoint Senators again.

I would be all for it if we could talk some sense into the young Bernie supporters to make them understand that socialism/ Marxism is NOT an answer to their objections and perceived injustices. . . it only invites more and bigger problems.

With all due respect, Mr. Trump, our tent is not THAT big.
