          He was endorsed by the dropouts because any political operative could see that Biden was the best candidate to beat trump. Sanders core support is from white liberals and there aren’t enough of them to win a presidential election. Minorites and moderates have no interest in him and that was shown in the primary results.

          Sanders would have been stomped by trump on 2016 or 2020

            Would have been nice to see if that is true. Sanders had much stronger support across the aisle in 2016. We’ll never know though.
