Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump hit back at Democratic contender Bernie Sanders effort Sunday on CBS News’ “Face the Nation” to make a play for his supporters, claiming the Vermont senator is “a wacko.”
In addition to the stinging criticism, Trump said he will be the one getting Sanders’ voters.
The real estate tycoon took to social media on Monday to make his case, comparing their tax plans:

The question is, based on the reaction on social media, does Trump really want Sanders’ supporters?
Here’s a sampling of responses from Twitter:
