WBUR Audio (47:17) - In Trump's Era, The Future Of The Democratic Party 12/22

http://www.wbur.org/onpoint/2016/12/22/future-democratic-party-trump

Senator Bernie Sanders is with us. We’ll ask how Democrats will fight or work with the new administration.

Senator Bernie Sanders is with us this hour to talk about how Democrats will greet or confront President Donald Trump. So far, there have been polite congratulations. President Obama saying he will do all he can for a smooth transition. But when Trump takes office January 20th, will – should – Democrats be ready to work with him where they can? Or should they “just say no’? Deny him bipartisan backing, as Republicans denied Obama? This hour On Point: Bernie Sanders, on the Democrats and Donald Trump. — Tom Ashbrook
