Trump: Sanders was right, Clinton is unqualified

Donald Trump has finally found something he agrees with Bernie Sanders on.

Trump, the GOP presidential front-runner, tweeted Saturday morning that he agreed with Sanders calling Democratic presidential rival Hillary Clinton "unqualified."

"Bernie Sanders says that Hillary Clinton is unqualified to be president. Based on her decision making ability, I can go along with that!" he wrote.

Sanders drew controversy Wednesday night for saying Clinton was not "qualified" to be president, because of her past support for the Iraq War and taking campaign money from Wall Street.

leading up to the general. It was a stupid comment by Sanders. No debate about that.

There's this new thing called YouTube. And Republicans have every shameful public lie the Secretary has told at their disposal.

It's a good thing they didn't ask her if she thought he was a dirty old man/pedophile, or any number of other things.

no matter how much you dislike the other person, you watch your words when you're talking about someone from your own party. Beyond being wrong, it was foolish, and dangerous.

H misspoke again asserting that Bernie was not qualified. And she got it back from Bernie in much the same way. Shame on H for going there. At least Bernie apologized for following her down that hole.

He just let his ego and anger get the better of him.
