Related: About this forumIn Less Than 48 Hours, Bernie Sanders Has Brilliantly Deconstructed Donald Trump
Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders is dismantling Donald Trump. With each passing moment, Sen. Sanders continues to build the national moral case for the popular rejection of the Republican frontrunner.
"CHUCK TODD: Marco Rubio this morning said the following, We are now a nation where people hate each other. It was sort of a stark and obviously, hes reacting to the Donald Trump rallies. How do you react to what weve been seeing?
BERNIE SANDERS: I dont agree with that all. I understand where Senator Rubio is coming from. What he is disturbed about and what I am disturbed about is we have a major candidate for president of the United States, Donald Trump, who is literally inciting violence among his supporters. When he says that he is prepared to pay the legal fees of somebody who sucker punches somebody, what he is really essentially saying is, Go, go, go, do it, supporters. Go beat up people.
CHUCK TODD: Its a permission slip?
BERNIE SANDERS: Absolutely. Its more than a permission slip. Its an enticement. Its saying, You can beat up people. Thats what this campaign is about, and dont worry about it. Ill pay the legal fees. Its a good thing to do. That is outrageous."

Sanders has been steadily building the moral case against Donald Trump over the last 48 hours. During an appearance on ABCs This Week, Sen. Sanders called out the many lies of Donald Trump while emphasizing that the Republican candidate is trying to use bigotry and racism to get to the White House. At the CNN Democratic town hall on Sunday evening, Sanders expanded his argument by accusing Trump of intentionally inciting violence.
