Donald Trump blasts "Crazy Bernie Sanders"

Source: CBS News

Donald Trump is hitting "Crazy Bernie Sanders" -- but not "too hard" -- just a day after the Vermont senator notched two more wins in the Democratic primary contest.

Trump followed up on the new nickname for his rival during a phone interview with Fox News early Wednesday, saying Sanders was "crazy" because "he's not very good."

"You know, I call him crazy Bernie because he's not very good," Trump said. "But probably beating him would be easier."

He added: "Who's going to run against the socialist and lose? I mean, he's the socialist. You're going to pay 95 percent tax. I'd love to run against him in one way."

Bernie will make you wear your underwear on the outside so it can be checked for cleanliness.

I'm actually glad they are starting on us now…as a Sanders voter it always bothered me that the GOP dismissed him so much and aimed 99% of their fire at Clinton. It was as if he didn't exist for them except as a throwaway laugh line.

I mean, why would Trump waste his time insulting Bernie when he's supposed to be facing the Inevitable One?

He's off his game. "Goofy" for Elizabeth Warren and "crazy" for Bernie Sanders are toothless gumming. No bite.

Six more months of listening to this guy's sexist, racist and xenophobic rants is too much. Heaven forfend that he becomes president. Can anyone imagine this buffoon in the WH?

I've become a bit detached too. Yesterday I was busy and forgot about the WV primary until late evening.

I envy you for having a terrace and yard. I got a firescape, the critters I see more frequently are squirrels running up and down the ladder and the occasional pigeon. City life.....

Donald Trump, like George Bush Junior, enjoys nicknaming people he doesn't hold in high esteem. Isn't it about time we showed him some respect by returning the compliment?
How about Donald LaDouche or perhaps Douchebag Donald Trump or maybe just The Bag?
