IOWA CITY, Iowa — Two minutes into his stump speech in this strongly Democratic college town, Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., made his first of many references to President Donald Trump, calling him "the most dangerous president in modern American history."

A short time later, he told the crowd that Trump "embarrasses us every day," before attacking the president's health care promises. "I know it will shock you when I tell you he lied," Sanders added.

Then, at an appearance in New Hampshire on Sunday, he told the crowd how his governing style would differ from Trump's. "The underlying principles of our government will not be racism, sexism, homophobia and religious bigotry," he said. "The principles that our government will work on will be based on justice."
