Khaberni - Democratic Senator Bernie Sanders condemned the style of US President Donald Trump, describing him as the most dangerous president in the history of the United States, accusing him of using the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement as an internal army, confirming that the American people will reject despotism.
The Democratic Senator from Vermont - in an exclusive interview with the Spanish newspaper El País - said that Trump is an authoritarian person trying to undermine democracy and the Constitution by usurping the powers of Congress.
The Independent Senator - who is considered a symbol of global leftism - expressed his hope that the Democrats would regain control of the House of Representatives in the upcoming midterm elections, saying, "I believe this is a realistic possibility if the elections were held today."
Discussing Trump's actions in Venezuela, Sanders said, "What Trump did in Venezuela constitutes a violation of international law. A powerful nation cannot unilaterally decide who governs another country."
The Senator added, "What happened in Venezuela sets a dangerous precedent," and questioned, "How can the United States condemn Russian President Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine after it attacked Venezuela?"
Sanders stated that Trump believes he can overthrow governments and take unilateral military actions, but "if we want to preserve this planet, we need to return to diplomacy and sit down together to resolve differences peacefully."
This is not the first time the Democratic Senator has criticized the Trump administration, describing it as a government of the wealthy run by billionaires for the benefit of billionaires.
Sanders pointed out that the power of excessive wealth should no longer be kept secret, noting that Trump wanted to show the world that it is the billionaire class that runs the government, and he accused the billionaires and their major political action committees in both the Democratic and Republican parties of controlling the political process, and of buying and selling politicians.
