Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) on Wednesday went after President Trump for his intensifying rhetoric on North Korea.
"Trump’s bombastic rhetoric is not appropriate when we are dealing with the possibility of a nuclear war that could kill millions of people," Sanders tweeted Wednesday.
"We need serious people at the @StateDept dealing with the issue of North Korea’s development of nuclear weapons & missile capability."
The Vermont senator said the country needs to work with China and its allies around the world to develop a "comprehensive diplomatic strategy to address the problem." His comments come after Trump on Tuesday issued a provocative warning to North Korea.
