Donald Trump trolled Bernie Sanders during convention speech. Sanders shot back with 2 words.


Sen. Bernie Sanders, in the parlance of cable news talking heads, landed the plane on Monday night, verbally thrashing Donald Trump while promoting his own revolution and unreservedly endorsing Hillary Clinton and promising to fight to get her elected. Trump, who is acting as semi-official Trump-Pence 2016 counter-messaging point man for Republicans during the Democratic National Convention, trolled Sanders in the lead-up to the speech.
Sanders — who apparently had time to check his Twitter feed after walking off stage — responded.
Imagine what Trump could have said if Hillary Clinton's main primary rival had pointedly refused to endorse her at her own convention.
