President Donald Trump once again resorted to name-calling as he passive-aggressively wished Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) well in his bid to become the Democratic presidential nominee for 2020.

Sanders announced his run on Tuesday.

In an interview on “CBS This Morning,” he said it “is absolutely imperative” that Trump be defeated “because I think it is unacceptable and un-American — to be frank with you — that we have a president who is a pathological liar.”

He also called Trump “a racist,” “a sexist” and “a xenophobe.”
