Longtime Sen. Bernie Sanders said he is about to deliver a “major message” to Donald Trump, the president-elect.
On Wednesday night, the independent senator from Vermont will speak at George Washington University in Washington, D.C., to promote his new book “Our Revolution: A Future to Believe In.”
“Bernie Sanders is going to give a major speech on Wednesday night about the future of our country under the presidency of Donald Trump,” read his email to supporters. “This is something you'll want to watch,” as The Hill reported.
Following Trump’s victory, Sanders said he would work with Trump but said that “racist, sexist, xenophobic and anti-environment policies” will not be tolerated.
In his book, Sanders argued that he would have beaten Trump.
“The Clinton campaign may not have liked it. The Democratic establishment may not have liked it. But it was becoming increasingly clear that I was the strongest candidate if Democrats were to retain the White House,” Sanders wrote, referring to 2015 polling data, according to an excerpt published by MarketWatch.
“If the Democrats wanted to win in November, our hope was that many of the superdelegates would begin to understand that we were the campaign to make that happen,” he added.
