MSNBC correspondent Chris Jansing sat down with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) in an interview on Wednesday and asked Sanders for his opinion on recent comments by Donald Trump as well as if he was hurting Hillary Clinton's campaign.

Jansing first asked Sanders for his take on recent comments made by Trump for how he would run against Clinton.

"He [Donald Trump] said he would look to your speeches for very good material against Hillary Clinton starting with, ‘She has bad judgment,’" Jansing said.

"Well, look, the Republican Party will have dozens of oppositional researchers. They don't need my speeches to talk about Hillary Clinton. They will go after Hillary Clinton, by the way, in ways that I have never, ever gone after Hillary Clinton," Sander said. "I mean things like the Clinton Foundation or things like the email situation. I don't talk about that. I have never talked about it one word on this campaign. I suspect very much that Donald Trump and the Republican Party will go after her in many, many ways that we have not."

Jansing then asked Sanders what he thought of Clinton's judgment, but he didn't answer and moved to talk about Trump's judgment instead.

"But if he says she has bad judgment, you wouldn't disagree?" Jansing asked.

"It depends–well, I think Donald Trump's, not that Donald Trump has bad judgment, I don't think Donald Trump has any judgment whatsoever," Sanders said. "When you have a candidate like Donald Trump who every single day is attacking a different group of people, whether they are Mexicans or Muslims or veterans or women or African-Americans, this is a man without any judgment, without the demeanor and I think the vast majority of the American people, no matter what their political views are, do not believe that Donald Trump has the demeanor or the judgment to become President of the United States. That's why he is way behind."

"You suggested he's dangerous and if he is the nominee, he is the likely nominee, does your continuing criticism of Hillary Clinton, if she's the nominee, hurt the Democrats' chances of pushing forward your agenda of winning the White House?" Jansing asked.

"This is media stuff, this is media stuff, okay, I know this is what media focuses on," Sanders said.

Sanders then defended his stance when pushed more by Jansing and laid out a few of the differences between himself and Clinton. Sanders seemed upset by what he says were untruths about him by Clinton.

"You don't think you're hurting her with criticism?" Jansing said.

"No, of course, I'm not hurting her. First of all, I am running for office. She went around today, I think yesterday, today, here in Indiana, suggesting that Bernie Sanders voted against the automobile bailout. Happens not to be true," Sanders said. "She has talked about me wanting to dismember health care programs in America when I believe in universal health care, that I have attacked Planned Parenthood went I want to expand funding for Planned Parenthood."

"That's what happens in a campaign. People exaggerate and they make charges. We have tried to run an issue-oriented campaign. Why am I running for president? Not for the fun of it. You know, I am running because I think it is too late for establishment politics and because I have strong differences of opinion with Hillary Clinton," Sanders said. "No great secret: Hillary Clinton voted for the war in Iraq. She acknowledges that that was a mistake. I helped lead the opposition to the war in Iraq, voted against the war. I have voted against every one of these disastrous trade agreements which have resulted in millions of Americans losing their jobs, she has supported virtually all of them. I want to end fracking in this country, as Secretary of State she supported fracking."
