Sanders says he's not interested in asking Hillary Clinton for 2020 advice

In her book, "What Happened," Clinton placed blame on Sanders for contributing to her 2016 loss, arguing he detracted several would-be voters. The beef appears to persist and was apparent in Sanders’ Friday interview.

“Hillary has not called me. Look, we have differences,” Sanders said, trailing off before conceding: “Hillary has played a very important role in modern American politics.”

But Sanders did not seem to let ideological differences get in the way of backing other hopefuls: He said his main objective in 2020 is to vote out Trump and said he would support any candidate the Democrats choose to do so.

“I hope to be the Democratic nominee and have the support of the whole Democratic Party behind me,” Sanders said. “If I am not and somebody else is, I will support that candidate because what’s most important is that Trump be defeated.”

Sanders campaigned for Clinton in 2016 after losing the party’s nomination.
