Sen. Bernie Sanders campaign is targeting rival Democratic presidential contender Sen. Kamala Harris over the her repeated insistence that she’s “not prepared to engage in a middle class tax hike” to pay for her Medicare-for-all proposal. Painting the California Democrat’s plan as unrealistic, senior Sanders campaign adviser Jeff Weaver asked “I don’t know how you can fund heath care for everybody without paying for it.”
