In an MSNBC town hall with Bernie Sanders in McDowell County, WV, the socialist senator warned that "a whole lot" of people would die if Obamacare were repealed.



The host, MSNBC's Chris Hayes asked how it would affect the rural county:



"If Obamacare is repealed, we are looking at hundreds of thousands of people who got Medicaid extension losing that. And how many of those folks will die?" Sanders asked rhetorically.



"It is a lot. I don’t know exactly, but it is a whole lot," Sanders replied.
