...much less Bernie Sanders on FOX NEWS.

CNN was already playing some clip about how he gave a Trump-like response in regards to a question about him paying so little in taxes for being a millionaire.

Bernie was fantastic. He held the hosts’ feet to the fire when they threw out gotcha questions. Clearly, one of Bernie’s strengths is message clarity and consistency.

It makes me think it’s a mistake for the other nominees not to wade into the viper pit.

I was so proud of him holding his own, and HOLDING THE FAUX NEWS HOSTS feet to the fire when they asked some stupid questions. I think all the other Democrats should go on their shows as well. ARE WE EVER AS A COUNTRY GOING TO GET TOGETHER ON taxes, roads, and health care?? Just asking.
