Bernie Sanders rebuffed an NBC News host who asked whether he'd drop out of the 2020 Democratic primary if it becomes clear he won't be the nominee and could help President Donald Trump get reelected.
The Vermont Independent senator delved back into the touchy 2016 topic of whether he would have defeated Donald Trump in the general election had Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee not "rigged" the primary against his candidacy. Speaking with NBC News' Kasie Hunt Wednesday, Sanders shot back with his own question, asking if Hunt was pressing every candidate for their thoughts on the same scenario.
