Bernie Sanders heckled at UMass but did not miss a beat as he 'educated' the heckler

Bernie Sanders and his supporters dispatched a Donald Trump heckler at his 'Future to Believe' Rally at the University of Massachusetts, in Amherst. The heckler was shouting ‘Shame on you.’

After the crowd erupted, he was escorted out without incident. Bernie Sanders did not get off message but had a very good comeback for the guy. "Here is a Trump supporter," Sanders said. "Worried about Mr. Trump's money." More on that later. As the heckler was escorted out Bernie had another one of his signature statements. "I say to Mr. Trump and his supporters," Sanders said. "That the billionaires of this country will not continue to own this nation.”
