Sanders agrees with or has agreed with all three major pillars of Trumpism.
1) reduced foreign interventions
2) new trade restrictions to benefit domestic workers
3) limiting immigration into the US to benefit domestic workers
Note that the Hillary Clinton/ @Jack V Savage part of the Democratic Party is on the opposite side of all three issues. The ongoing civil war within the Democratic Party will determine the electoral outcome in 2020.
The first one is baldly false. Trump has greatly escalated foreign interventions and to a much greater extent than any Democrats would have. Further, I personally am not part of any wing that supports Trump's move there. The second one is also false, as the trade restrictions are not designed to benefit domestic workers and will not do so in fact. Further, Trump's overall program has been very labor unfriendly. Limiting immigration is accurate, though again, it is plainly false that such actions have positive impacts for domestic workers.
If you want further responses, try to reduce the blatant misrepresentations.
