Sanders joined ABC News’s “This Week,” where host Jonathan Karl asked if there was anything Trump has done right.

“I think cracking down on fentanyl, making sure our borders are stronger,” Sanders replied. “Look, nobody thinks illegal immigration is appropriate, and I happen to think we need comprehensive immigration reform, but I don’t think it’s appropriate for people to be coming across the border illegally.”

While the senator agreed with Trump on strengthening the country’s borders to protect citizens, he disagreed with the president’s mass deportation plan.

“He wants to deport 20 million people who are in this country who are undocumented,” Sanders said. “Well, you do that, you destroy the entire country.”

“Because I got news for you, Trump’s billionaire friends are not going to pick the crops in California that feed us. They’re not going to work in meatpacking houses,” he continued. “That’s what undocumented people are doing.”

Given that this is as far left as US politicians get, I'd say unlikely.

"cracking down on fentanyl"

The War on Drugs is well-documented to be a racist pretext for mass incarceration and violation of 4th Amendment rights, etc., (see The New Jim Crow for example), so Sanders is either a useful idiot or complicit.

I mean, yeah, if you're punishing people for consuming the drugs directly, 100%. However, Trump's focus has been more on preventing fentanyl from entering the country.

Unfortunately, he's still an idiot since the US's own pharmaceutical companies are the primary culprit and he's just using Mexico as a scapegoat, so yeah, you're not wrong lol.

Because people are not ‘illegal’ for crossing an imaginary line on a map.

Where did he call anyone 'illegal'?
