Bernie Sanders on Trump’s Attacks on Single-Payer: He Is a ‘Pathological Liar’

EXCERPT:

SANDERS: "OK. Look, I mean -- and I say this without any joy in my heart, really. We have a president that I think most people understand is a pathological liar. And that is no day goes by when he is not lying about one thing or the other. And now they're lying about Medicare for all. The reality is that Medicare today is the most popular health insurance in America. And a significant majority of American people believe as I do that we should expand Medicare to cover every man, woman and child. And not continue to be, Chris, the only major country on earth that doesn't guarantee health care to all people as a right, not a privilege. I think what most Americans understand that today's health care system is dysfunctional, 30 million without any insurance. Even more underinsured. Thousands of people die every year because they don't get to a doctor on time. And we pay by far the highest prices in the world for prescription drugs. Now, Trump and his friends may not like it. But in my view, the goal of health care is not to make billions in profits for the drug companies and the insurance companies. It is to provide in a cost effective way health care to every American."
