In continuing their series of interviews with the announced 2016 presidential candidates, Morning Joe welcomed independent Vermont senator and self-described democratic-socialist Bernie Sanders to the program. Co-host Mika Brzezinski lauded the Sanders campaign for its early success and large campaign events.
The MSNBC personality asked Sanders how “the campaign trail [is] feeling” to him, and after the senator replied that it was going well, Brzezinski couldn’t help but laugh and note that it’s “looking pretty good too. Your crowds are humongous!” She then positively cited a piece from the Washington Post which suggested that the senator’s campaign – based on the crowd sizes – could indicate that a “growing movement” is brewing in America.
