Sen.Bernie Sanders(I-Vt.) on Sunday said Democrats should have the guts to court some supporters of former President Trump.

A number of far-right extremists are likely unreachable by Democrats, Sanders acknowledged, but working class Americans, backing Trump because of their frustration with the American economy,could be pulled across the aisle.

What we need is a Democratic party that has the guts to stand up to them say, yeah, were going to take on the greed of the insurance companies and the drug companies and Wall Street. And I think if we do that some of those people, Im not saying all, will say, you know what, Im going to stand with the Democratic Party because on these economic issues, theyre far preferable to right wing Republicans, Sanders said on NBCs Meet the Press.

The independent senator, who ran for president as a Democrat in 2016, knocked Republicans economic platform and argued that Democrats positions likely align better with the concerns of the everyday American.

Look, I think there are some extreme right-wing voters who are racists, who are sexist, who are homophobes, xenophobes and I dont think youre going to ever get them, Sanders said.

But I also think there are millions of people in this country, working class people who look at Washington and they say, you know what, Im falling further and further behind. I cant afford health care. I cant afford to send my kids to college. I cant afford the outrageous cost of prescription drugs. Who is listening to me?
