Vice President Joe Biden suggested Tuesday night that it would be immoral for fans of Bernie Sanders to vote for anyone other than Hillary Clinton.
"What do you say when one of the Bernie delegates comes to you and says, 'Listen, I'm just not going for Hillary; I'm standing by my principles'?" asked ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos. "I say — I look at you and I say — 'I know you're gonna vote for Hillary,'" Biden answered. "'I just know. Because if you're as moral and centered as you say you are, I know you can't vote for Trump. I know.'"
