Asked about the violent protests at Donald Trump rallies, Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders gave a clear answer. “Violence is absolutely and totally unacceptable,” he said. He added that if anyone was considering becoming violent, “please do not tell anybody you are a Bernie Sanders supporter, because those are not the supporters that I want.”
Of course, he couldn’t help but also bash Trump, adding that he found the New York business mogul’s positions “reprehensible and disgraceful,” before launching into a lengthy diatribe about Trump’s insults toward women and minorities. Still, Sanders told his audience that defeating Trump would not take egg-throwing and violence, but education and organization.
