While millions are asking themselves how Trump could have possibly been elected president, Bernie Sanders has his own answer: He "tapped into the anger" of the middle class.

In a statement released on Wednesday evening, Sanders said that Trump was voted in due to people being "tired of working longer hours for lower wages...all while the rich become much richer.

Sanders added that he and other progressives will work with Trump "to the degree that [he] is serious about pursuing policies that improve the lives of working families in this country." However, he will "vigorously oppose" Trump if—or, should we say, when—he "pursues racist, sexist, xenophobic, and anti-environment policies."

It's gonna be a long road, folks.
