Sanders was on course to potentially win in 2016, then he threw in the towel because it would supposedly help Clinton. I haven’t taken him seriously since.

That’s a pretty creative take on it. Sanders WON the primary over Hillary Clinton and the DNC promptly disqualified him and put Hillary in his place. He didn’t throw in the towel. The candidacy was stolen from him. He was stolen from us. I haven’t taken the DNC seriously since.

And he was magnanimous and supported her even after the treachery, didn’t split the vote by running third party.
