Bernie Sanders Admits Joe Biden's 'Doing Very Well' but 'Strongly' Disagrees He's a Better Pick

'Donald Trump must be defeated, and I will do everything in my power to make sure that happens,' Sanders said

In a brief speech on Wednesday afternoon, Sanders said that he’ll continue his 2020 presidential campaign despite losing four of the six state primaries held on Tuesday — including the largest, Michigan, where Sanders had won in an upset four years earlier.

The 78-year-old progressive lawmaker won North Dakota and holds a slim lead in Washington, where votes were still being counted as of Wednesday afternoon. But the Sanders campaign took another significant blow after Biden won Michigan, as well as Idaho, Mississippi and Missouri. In Michigan and the latter two states, Biden won by significant double-digit margins.
