The Trump campaign issued an awesome response today after Vermont socialist Senator Bernie Sanders officially announced he was running for president.
National Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany posted the campaign statement on Twitter, which reads, “Bernie Sanders has already won the debate in the Democrat primary, because every candidate is embracing his brand of socialism. But the American people will reject an agenda of sky-high tax rates, government-run health care and coddling dictators like those in Venezuela. Only President Trump will keep America free, prosperous and safe.”

Sanders made his announcement this morning in an email to supporters, writing, “I’m running for president because, now more than ever, we need leadership that brings us together — not divides us up. Women and men, black, white, Latino, Native American, Asian American, gay and straight, young and old, native born and immigrant. Now is the time for us to stand together.”
Unsurprisingly, the senator also took aim at President Trump, writing that he is “the most dangerous president in modern American history.”
I'm running for president. I am asking you to join me today as part of an unprecedented and historic grassroots campaign that will begin with at least 1 million people from across the country. Say you're in: https://t.co/KOTx0WZqRf pic.twitter.com/T1TLH0rm26
