Bernie Sanders Says Democrats to Blame for 73 Million Trump Voters, ‘We’ve Got to Reach Out To Those People’

Independent Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders told SiriusXM host Dean Obeidallah that the 73 million votes cast for President Donald Trump are “a reflection of the Democratic Party,” and that Democrats have “got to reach out to those people.”

But then Sanders pivoted to critiquing Democrats for not doing unspecified things that Trump does, and demanded they reach out to the 3 million voters who propelled Trump to a 7 million-vote (and counting) loss to President-elect Joe Biden:

It goes beyond Trump. I mean, we have got to ask ourselves why 70, whatever the number, 73 million I think, voted for him, and we’ve got to reach out to those people.

I think that there is, and I think that to some degree, Dean, I’m sure a lot of my Democratic colleagues do not agree with me, but this is a reflection of the Democratic Party because I think if you talk to many of those people, working class people who voted for Trump, they’ll say ‘Look, of course we know he’s a liar, we know he’s full of shit, but at least he does this, he does that,’ something the Democrats don’t do.

Sanders has a long history of obsessing about “white working-class voters,” and while he didn’t specify white voters here, Trump’s voters were overwhelmingly white, and Joe Biden won voters making less than $100,000 a year by double digits.
