Bernie Sanders Explains Why He Won’t Endorse Hillary Yet

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders stopped by The Late Show with Stephen Colbert Thursday night and talked about continuing in the presidential race until the end. Sanders was adamant that he has no plans to drop out of the race and said he is not endorsing Hillary Clinton yet. Colbert asked what exactly he wanted from former Secretary of State Clinton before he would endorse her, and Sanders replied that he wants the millions of people who voted for him to still have a voice in this race.

Sanders said that his campaign has been talking with Clinton’s to get her to “come out very strongly in moving toward making public colleges and universities tuition-free.” There is another goal that Sanders and Clinton are working on together, and that’s to defeat Donald Trump. Colbert asked Sanders if he needed to say anything to his supporters to make sure they don’t vote for Trump, and Bernie replied, “My supporters are smart enough to know that we do not want a bigot to become president of the United States.”

The Late Show with Stephen Colbert airs weeknights at 11:35 p.m. on CBS.
