Sanders pitches a tougher line than Trump on GM closures

Hindustan Times  

Sen. Bernie Sanders on Sunday accused President Donald Trump of betraying the working people who put him in office and challenged him to deny federal contracts to General Motors until the company reopens shuttered plants. “That was a monstrous lie.” Earlier in Lordstown, Ohio, and again in Pittsburgh, Sanders pressed Trump to put action behind his words on GM plant closings. “And if you are not a good and responsible corporate citizen, do not think that you will get federal contracts.” Several union organizers spoke before Sanders at the Pittsburgh rally, part of Sanders’ four-day, five-state swing through states that are part of the Democratic strategy to rebuild the “blue wall” in 2020. We all struggle and you know Bernie’s for those type of people.” Some of Sanders’ supporters from 2016 have a taken a step back to study the big Democratic primary crowd.
