Trump on Sanders-Clinton brawl: ‘I’d like him to keep going’

HARRISBURG, Pa. — Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump on Thursday offered rare words of praise for one of his Democratic rivals: Sen. Bernie Sanders, who Trump said should keep attacking front-runner Hillary Clinton.

"He's been tough on her. In fact, I'd like him to keep going because the longer he goes the more I'm going to like it," Trump told thousands of supporters during a campaign rally here in Harrisburg.

Trump lauded Sanders for keeping pressure on Clinton and particularly singled out Sanders’s comments attacking Clinton’s judgment. He also credited Sanders with being the first to question Clinton's qualifications for office.

"So Bernie Sanders, not me, said she is not qualified. So now I’m going to say, 'She’s not qualified.' OK?" Trump said.
