Sanders Camp on Bill Clinton: Bernie ‘Has No Interest in Getting in the Mud with Trump’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
MITCHELL: "Let’s talk about the Bernie Sanders answer on Bill Clinton. Was he getting down in the dirt? Was he going in for a personal attack in the way he answered that question the other day?"
WEAVER: "Absolutely not. He was asked that question by someone in the audience. Without dwlling on it, I don’t think the president’s behavior was graceful but we are not talking about that. We are running an issues-oriented campaign. Senator Sanders has no interest in getting in the mud with Donald Trump and other mudslingers. This is, as you know, always been an issue-oriented campaign and will continue to be. There are big differences in the issues between senator Sanders and secretary Clinton. So that’s what we’re focused on in this election. A couple of those issues are, you know, his willingness to take on the billionaire class, to deal with our rigged economy, to deal with the corrupt campaign finance system. He’s not using a Super PACs as secretary Clinton is. His willingness to take on wall Street, break up the big banks, his desire to lift the cap on taxable income around social security so we can expand benefits to all seniors. His support, his strong support for legislation, pending legislation in the house and Senate that would create 12 weeks of paid family and medical leave, paid for with a small payroll tax of $1.61 for the average worker. Something the secretary has not come out for. So these are the types of issues we are talking about on the campaign trail. These are the types of issues that are resonating with voters and that is why you are seeing this movement in the polls."
