Sanders: Gitmo Making Us ‘Look Like Hypocrites and Fools to the Entire World’

‘What we have done is locked up people in a way that is causing all kinds of repercussions around the world’

SANDERS: "What is okay is, look, we look like hypocrites and fools to the entire world. What we have done is locked up people in a way that is causing all kinds of repercussions around the world. People say you’re a Democratic society, we have locked people up in an island. I think that has hurt us all over the world. Obviously if people are terrorists, they need to be confined, and we need to make sure they stay in jail until whatever happens. But I think the president is right. I think we should shut down Guantanamo. I think in the long run it will help us significantly."
