US President Donald Trump says he thinks Senator Bernie Sanders is a communist because he thinks of communism when he thinks of Sanders!

He made the comments in an interview aired prior to Super Bowl LIV on Fox News.

I think he�s a communist. I mean, you know, look, I think of communism when I think of Bernie, said the US president after being asked to make a quick statement about other 2020 presidential candidates.

Now you could say socialist, but didn�t he get married in Moscow?

Trump has been trying to widen the rift in the Democratic field, in part by expressing a mild support for Sanders in his feud with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

I think of Bernie sort of as a socialist but far beyond a socialist. Trump said. At least he�s true to what he believes.

Impeach Biden

The Vermont independent lawmaker, who is running as a Democrat, is facing former Vice President Joe Biden, whom the president had tried to harm in a manner that led to his impeachment.

While Trump�s acquittal is nearing in the Republican-held Senate, a GOP senator has talked of impeaching Biden if he can beat Trump in the 2020 presidential election.

I think this door of impeachable whatever has been opened, Iowa Republican Senator Joni Ernst said in an interview with Bloomberg. Joe Biden should be very careful what he�s asking for because, you know, we can have a situation where if it should ever be President Biden, that immediately, people, right the day after he would be elected would be saying, ‘Well, we�re going to impeach him.�

Biden said last week that Ernst had spilled the beans about Republicans� intentions, asserting that, You can ruin Donald Trump�s night by caucusing with me and ruin Joni Ernst�s night as well.
