A reporter asked Monday, “Sarah, didn’t the president, by saying that he wants to get out of Syria, essentially give a green light to Assad to do this as John McCain has suggested, that the United States was leaving–was kind of pulling up and leaving it to…”
“Look, we’re still there,” Sanders shot back. “And I think that it is outrageous to say that the president of the United States green-lit something as atrocious as the actions that have taken place over the last several days.”
