ELIZABETH: LAST NIGHT WE BROUGHT
YOU THE NEWS ABOUT THAT STUNNING
REPORT ABOUT BERNIE SANDERS'
AGGRESSIVE PUSH TO NATIONALIZE
MOST MAJOR INDUSTRIES WHILE
LEADING A FAR-LEFT PARTY IN THE
1970s.
BERNIE SANDERS WANTED THE
GOVERNMENT TO SEIZE AND CONTROL
AMERICAN COMPANIES INCLUDING
ENERGY, UTILITY AND PHONE
COMPANIES.
THIS FROM THE 2020 CANDIDATE WHO
STILL WILL NOT DENOUNCE
COMMUNIST DICTATORS WHILE HE
HIMSELF LIVES MORE LIKE A
CAPITALIST.
WELL, THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL
COMMITTEE TOOK NOTE.
HERE'S SPOKESMAN MICHAEL AARON
TWEETING OUT THIS:
ELIZABETH:
LET'S GET REACTION FROM AMERICAN
MAJORITY CEO NED RYAN.
NED, FIRST OFF, YOUR REACTION TO
THAT.
>> WELL, I MEAN, THEY'RE EXACTLY
RIGHT, AND GOOD FOR THE RNC FOR
CALLING OUT BERNIE SANDERS,
BECAUSE HE'S NOT TALKING ABOUT
JUST ANY KIND OF SOCIALISM, LIZ,
HE'S TALKING ABOUT THE KIND OF
STATE-RUN PRODUCTION.
THIS IS VERY UN-AMERICAN, AND
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT, AGAIN,
WE NEED TO BE CALLING HIM OUT
ON.
EN AGAIN, WE'RE SEEING THIS PLAY
OUT IN VENEZUELA.
WE ARE SEEING A REAL-LIFE
EXPERIENCE RIGHT IN FRONT OF US.
AND THE OTHER THING I THINK
PEOPLE SHOULD BE CALLING BERNIE
SANDERS OUT, AGAIN, HE'S NOT
DENOUNCING THE CASTRO BROTHERS
OR MADURO.
HE'S A COMMUNIST SYMPATHIZER,
AND THIS IS PRETTY STAGGERING
WHEN YOU CAN SAY HE IS LEAD
ANYTHING THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY
RIGHT NOW.
ELIZABETH: YEAH.
HE'S DESCRIBED BREAD LINES IN
NICARAGUA AS A, QUOTE, GOOD
THING.
HE SAID THAT CASTRO TRANSFORMED
CUBA.
WATCH.
>> EVERYBODY WAS TOTALLY
CONVINCED THAT CASTRO WAS THE
WORST BAY IN THE WORLD, ALL THE
CUBAN PEOPLE WERE GOING TO RISE
UP AGAINST FIDEL CASTRO.
THEY FORGOT HE EDUCATED THE
KIDS, TOTALLY TRANSFORMED THE
SOCIETY.
ELIZABETH: HE SAYS THE SOVIET
UNION HAS GOOD CULTURAL PROGRAMS
FOR THE YOUNG.
YOUR TAKE.
>> FIRST OF ALL, OF COURSE
CASTRO TRANSFORMED CUBA, HE
DESTROYED IT, ALL THE WHILE
ENRICHING HIMSELF.
I THINK HE WAS WORTH CLOSE TO A
BILLION DOLLARS WHEN ALL WAS
SAID AND DONE, LIZ.
BUT WE SAW THE SOVIET UNION
COLLAPSE.
IF IT WAS SUCH A GREAT
EXPERIENCE, WHY DID IT COLLAPSE?
AGAIN, WE SAW THAT DECADES AGO.
ING THIS NEVER WORKS.
THIS IS THE STAGGERING PART TO
ME, REALLY THE HUBRIS AND
ARROGANCE OF THE BERNIE SANDERS
AND AOCs OF THE WORLD BECAUSE
THEY THINK SOMEHOW THEY'RE
SMARTER THAN EVERYBODY ELSE AND
SOCIALISM WILL WORK BECAUSE NOW
THEY'RE IN CHARGE AND, AGAIN,
HISTORY IS REPLETE WITH THAT
NEVER HAPPENING.
ELIZABETH: YOU KNOW, THE CLINTON
CAMP SAYS HE ONLY WILL FLY
PRIVATE JETS, NOT COMMERCIAL.
THAT'S BERNIE SANDERS.
THE SANDERS FAMILY JUST SHUT
DOWN A NONPROFIT THAT WAS
FOUNDED BY SANDERS' WIFE AND RUN
BY HIS SON.
IT'S AFTER ESCALATING CRITICISM
BECAUSE THIS NONPROFIT WAS
BLURRING THE LINES BETWEEN
SANDERS' FAMILY, BETWEEN
FUNDRAISING, BETWEEN
CAMPAIGNING.
IT RAISED, YOU KNOW, NEARLY
THREE-QUARTERS OF A MILLION
DOLLARS LAST YEAR.
BERNIE SANDERS' WIFE IS WORRIED
ABOUT THE CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.
YOU'VE GOT TO KNOW WHERE ALL
THAT MONEY GOES, RIGHT, NED?
>> NO, EXACTLY.
I FEEL LIKE I'VE HEARD THIS
SOMEWHERE BEFORE, LIZ, THE
BLURRING BETWEEN FAMILY,
CAMPAIGN AND POLITICS.
OH, THAT'S RIGHT, THE CLINTON
FOUNDATION, AND NOT
UNDERSTANDING WHERE THAT ENDED
AND THE STATE DEPARTMENT BEGAN.
PEOPLE CAN GET INTO SERIOUS
TROUBLE USING NONPROFIT MONEY
FOR WHAT IT'S NOT INTENDED TO BE
USED FOR.
WE'VE SEEN CONGRESSMAN STOCKMAN
AND FORMER CONGRESSWOMAN BROWN
GET NAILED, AND THEY'RE PAYING
SEVEN-FIGURE FINES AND GOING TO
JAIL.
AND MAYBE THE SANDERS' HAVE
WOKEN UP TO THE FACT THAT THEIR
LAST NAME ISN'T CLINTON, AND
PEOPLE DO GET HIT FOR THESE
THINGS.
MAYBE IN SOME WAYS IT'S REALLY
THE RIGHT THING BECAUSE THEY'RE
SEEING THE HANDWRITING ON THE
WALL.
THE IRS IS CRACKING DOWN ON
PEOPLE.
THE SHAME OF IT IS -- BECAUSE I
THINK THE CLINTON FOUNDATION IS
A CHARITY FRAUD -- IT WOULD BE
