June Democratic candidates debate in Miami FL: on Families & Children


Bernie Sanders: Trump threw 32M families off healthcare, socialism not issue

Gov. John HICKENLOOPER: If we don't clearly define that we are not socialists, the Republicans are going to come at us every way they can and call us socialists.

Sen. Bernie SANDERS: The American people understand that Trump is a phony, that Trump is a pathological liar and a racist, and that he lied to the American people during his campaign. He said he was going to stand up for working families. Well, President Trump, you're not standing up for working families when you try to throw 32 million people off health care and 83% of your tax benefits go to the top 1%. That's how we beat Trump: We expose him for the fraud that he is.
