Sanders also said he wasn&#8217;t being vetted as Clinton&#8217;s running mate, but did weigh in on who she should choose, stating &#8220;I think she should select the most progressive candidate that she can find. It would be a terrible mistake for her to go to a candidate who has roots from Wall Street or has been backed by Wall Street.\u201d In addition, Sanders weighed in on Trump after Trump made an appeal to Sanders\u2019 voters in his speech on Wednesday. Sanders, in referring to Trump, said \u201cThis guy, you know, must not become president of the United States, and I am going to do everything I can to prevent that, but I don\u2019t think many of the people who voted for me will be voting for him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Clinton addressed the state of the economy as being \u201cmessed up,\u201d but that she, alone, can fix it. Trump retaliated by calling Clinton a \u201cworld-class liar\u201d during his speech. For Trump it was a rough week:\u00a0 A shake-up in his campaign staff and then the release of his dismal fund-raising total.<\/p>\n<p>In other news, Speaker Paul Ryan was shouted down by Democrats on Wednesday after about 30 Democratic lawmakers staged a sit-in to push House Republicans to hold a vote on gun control.
