Just turned on CNN and heard Trump quoting Sanders

[DesertRat]

Saying, "Hillary is not qualified, you know who said, that? Bernie Sanders! Even he knows that she's not qualified to be president."

[One Black Sheep]

1. Yep, he has been doing that a lot lately, actually

in recent speeches, Trump is going after Bernie supporters, no doubt.

[yeoman6987]

27. They are using warren's words against Hillary about corporations too

Repugs fight dirty.

[TheBlackAdder]

54. Was it as bad as when John McCain used Hillary's words against Barack Obama in 2008?

.


And Mitt Romney in 2012?


.

[democrattotheend]

2. Trump is also using Obama against Hillary

He's running ads using stuff Obama said about Hillary during the 2008 primaries against her.

So are we going to hold him responsible for sabotage also if she loses?

[HassleCat]

3. Why is this a problem?

The other party always uses comments made by candidates who oppose each other in the primary. Remember how we had a field day with "Voodoo Economics?"

[DesertRat]

11. Because the other party does it

means that it's not a problem? Our candidates should learn from history that this will happen.

[Armstead]

14. Its your fingerwagging tone about it

If it had been Sanders as the nominee, Trump would be using things Clinton has said about Bernie.

[DesertRat]

19. The more Sanders attacked Clinton, the worse he did.

I hope the same holds true with Trump.

[panader0]

28. Sanders handled HRC with kid gloves--he never went after the email or Foundation scandals.

And as for the "unqualified" remark--it came the day after HRC said the very same thing about Bernie.
Clintons problems are because of her own actions and are not Bernie's fault, or his supporters fault.

[Kelvin Mace]

4. You know who said Trump wasn't qualified?

All 16 of his opponents.

[Maru Kitteh]

22. Good point.

[tecelote]

26. Yes. And so did Bernie.

And Hillary.

[Il_Coniglietto]

47. Those ads will be a thing of beauty.

There's so much material it would have to be a series. "What Trump's fellow Republicans REALLY think!"

[HumanityExperiment]

5. pay to play....

&t=3m30s

HRC is having a rather large issue at hand with donor getting preferential treatment when she was SoS, http://www.cnn.com/2016/06/10/politics/hillary-clinton-donor-rajiv-fernando/index.html

This isn't something HRC supporters can EVER blame Bernie for... but that's not going to stop ya from trying I see...

[tritsofme]

6. Reagan used Ted Kennedy snippets against Carter all through 1980.

That campaign left me bitter toward Kennedy for a long time.

[emulatorloo]

7. Trump's attempting to seduce Bernie voters to vote for Trump

So I am not surprised. I don't suppose he noted that Bernie walked that statement back.

One can't blame Bernie for Trump's dishonest campaigning

(trump will fail at this seduction, btw.)

[DesertRat]

12. Trump said something about welcoming Sanders' voters

"with open arms."

[emulatorloo]

15. Of course he did. However he's a dangerous idiot who will say anything.

[panader0]

29. Hillary is courting Republicans.

[DesertRat]

34. I hope so!

It won't be a hard sell. Especially with many Republican women,

[panader0]

35. I agree about the appeal to R-women voters.

But if it's okay for HRC to appeal to R's, why are you upset about Trump appealing to Democrats
or Independents?

[okasha]

39. The R's Hillary is appealing to are not batshit crazy authoritarians.

Trump is a batshit crazy authoritarian.

It's not Trump's courting Sanders supporters that's the problem , since the great majority of Sanders supporters are't batshit crazy either and will support the Democratic ticket.

The problem is the BoB dupes and collaborators who are willing to damage not just the Democratic Party but the entire planet because they lost the primary.

[DesertRat]

44. When did I say that?

[baldguy]

53. Clinton appeals to sanity. Trump appeals to insanity.

[snot]

8. Both Trump and Clinton have been borrowing Sanders' positions and language.

Haven't noticed Sanders borrowing any of theirs.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

9. that comment is partly why Sanders lost NY by such a giant margin, and why Trump will lose too

[bunnies]

10. And Romney used Hilary's words to attack Obama.

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/election-2012/mitt-romney-old-hillary-clinton-footage-attack-president-barack-obama-article-1.1112895

[DesertRat]

13. Our Dem. candidates need to learn from this history. nt

[kerry-is-my-prez]

16. There used to be an unstated rule that Democrats don't viciously attack other Democrats.

[SwampG8r]

42. Someone should have told hillary that

[bunnies]

18. Yep. Stick to positions. nt

[GeorgeGist]

24. What history?

[NWCorona]

17. You mean like this?

[icecreamfan]

20. +1

[Skink]

23. There's your VP nom

Count on it

[azurnoir]

21. Thanks I see the new game no surprises there at all

[ismnotwasm]

25. You know he's gonna piss Sanders off.

From what I understand, that is a dumb thing to do. Sanders may differ from and with Hillary, but he's might as well be from a different planet than Trump.

[Adrahil]

30. It was Bernie's worst blunder. He really stepped in it.

But once DC is over and he is all-in, he will counter those attacks effectively, IMO.

[QC]

31. It would never have occurred to a gentle, loving soul like Trump

to attack Hillary if Bernie hasn't given him the idea.

Is there no limit to Bernie's evil?

[jillan]

32. I just turned on CNN and saw Trump talking about Hillary donor getting top secret intel position

with her even tho he has no experience.

[DesertRat]

37. Was he quoting a Democrat?

[jillan]

49. No he was quoting the news that came out from her campaign.

[NurseJackie]

33. Told you so! This one thing alone INVALIDATES all the praise that's being given to him now.

[Karmadillo]

36. At least Trump found an honest politician to quote. Hard to do these days.

[AgingAmerican]

38. Bernie never said that

[DesertRat]

45. I'll look forward to Sanders going after Trump for lying...

[AgingAmerican]

50. Is Trump a paragon of truth to you?

[JoePhilly]

40. Trump will push Sanders to endorse Hillary.

[MyNameGoesHere]

41. Sanders also added legitamcy to that ass with that whole

Debate the tRump thing. Bone headed. And not qualified.

[DesertRat]

43. I'd almost forgotten about that.

[Tom Rinaldo]

46. And Hillary gets to use Repubicans against Trump

It happens after every primary fight. But Our side was much milder.

"Clinton and Sanders aired 206,528 spots between them this year—and not one was deemed “negative” by the analysts in Kantar’s Media’s Campaign Media Analysis Group, Bloomberg’s Joshua Green and Tim Higgins report."
http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/trackers/2016-06-09/campaign-daybook-democratic-acrimony-didn-t-spur-negative-ads

[Vattel]

48. Clinton clearly suggested (without explicitly saying it) that Sanders was not qualified.

Sanders made the tactical mistake of responding in kind. Clinton gleefully used that against him. Now Trump is trying to use it against Clinton. Gotta love politics.

[peace13]

51. The only kind of trickle down!

Started with Hill. Sanders fired back and now it reaches full circle from yet another contender. Gotta love it!

[Barack_America]

52. Please proceed. Nt
