Far-left presidential candidate Bernie Sanders just shocked the nation with an illegal immigration confession.

Sanders just revealed that he is not a supporter of open borders as many had believed. He was asked by a supporter on a campaign stop about his willingness to support an open-border policy.

The self-proclaimed democratic socialist responded to the question by saying “I’m afraid you may be getting your information wrong. That’s not my view.”

This news comes as a surprise to many, as Sanders has been an outspoken critic of President Trump’s approach to border security.

Sanders has taken a surprisingly different stance on immigration than many of his other far-left competitors.
