Bernie Sanders just trolled Trump from the Senate floor with one of his own tweets

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Senator Bernie Sanders took to the Senate floor on Wednesday to launch an attack on Donald Trump by using a blow-up of one of the president-elect’s own tweets.

The Vermont independent called out Trump on his plans for Medicare and Medicaid benefits, pointing out Trump’s promise that there would be no cuts to the social safety net.

The May, 2015 tweet states: “I was the first & only potential GOP candidate to state there will be no cuts to Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid. Huckabee copied me.”

“Millions of people voted for him on the belief that he would keep his word,” Sanders told the cameras, referring to Trump’s promises during the 2016 campaign.

Bigly!

11. Right. Imagine what he could do if he was a Democrat!!!

[jknudsen]

14. What are you talking about ?

He is a true democrat if there ever was one. Look at the DNC how corrupt why would he want to be a part of that Now if Keith Ellison is taking over it is a different ball game.

15. Oh, my goodness. Do you really think I am that dumb? :))

I guess I should have stuck in the sarcasm thingy.
Here it is.




Apology accepted.

17. There was no need for sarcasm thingy.

6. I agree, and thwy should be everywhere

and rotate through all his real zingers... there are so many that a new one could be put up every day and there would be fifteen more in the queue.

7. Why stop there?

Trumplethinskin has given up a whole treasure trove of tweets to use on all issues.

8. Great job Bernie!

[Trust Buster]

9. Wow, that achieved a lot.

[Feeling the Bern]

12. Ugh. more Sanders hate. IF he doesn't single handedly do everything, he's a failure

So much for the rule of bashing liberals and progressives on DU. Considering he caucuses with the Democrats, why do you despise him so much?

[Trust Buster]

19. What hate ? Making fun of tweets won't achieve one darn thing IMO.

[Feeling the Bern]

21. And what exactly do you want him to do? Maybe you could enlighten us on a strategy

rather than poo-poo something.

Anyone can do that. Come up with a solution. Pointing out lies and hypocrisy isn't good enough now.

16. Please list all your accomplishment of public service

You'all should make a list of all the people that are not allowed to fight against Donald Trump because they don't meet your standards, just so we know.

10. Here we go.

Perhaps a small army of congressional aides is working overtime behind the scenes to gather up the tweets and make posters for use on the Senate floor.

13. tRUMP tweets

His historical tweets will be a gold mine. I hope someone with IT know how screen saves them all and uses them to confront him every time he changes position. What Bernie did was brilliant. In your face words and visual!! I'm sure tRUMP will still deny he tweeted them but they will be visual and the media will pick them up. Please someone with IT knowledge figure out how to preserve his tweets.

18. Brooklyn knows how to kick Mr Queens rear

[meow2u3]

20. Yo! I resemble that remark!

I was born in Brooklyn and raised in Queens.

Bernie kicked the hiney of the Queen!
