Taking a leaf out of the President’s book, Bernie Sanders has taken to twitter to vent his frustrations with Donald Trump.
The Democrat, who lost the nomination to Hillary Clinton, tweeted: “We have a President who either lies intentionally or, even more frighteningly, does not know the difference between lies and truth.”

Mr Sanders, who is the US's longest serving Senator, added: “I strongly believe in civil political discourse. But how does one respond to a President who has complete disregard for reality?”

He did not elaborate on which of Mr Trump’s many controversial statements he was referring to, but the President has come under fire in the last week for his allegations that Barack Obama had his office in Trump Towers wiretapped after he failed to provide any evidence for his claims.
