Watching politicsnation. Senator Bernie Sanders has called on the president elect to keep his campaign promises. Trump repeatedly promised not to cut medicare, medicaid, or social security. Senator sanders joins me now from burlington, vermont. Thank you for being with us this morning, senator. My pleasure. You have called on donald trump to do what donald trump said he was going to do. Do you think he is going to yield to your reminding him of what he said, or do you think that the change is already in motion . Well, al, i know it is a radical idea to demand that a candidate actually keep his word. I do know that that is a radical approach. But what the heck, you know. And whats important here to understand is trump didnt just say this in passing. It wasnt in one interview.
