After a campaign shaken by twists and turns, Bernie Sanders abandoned the race for the White House on Wednesday, promising to work with Joe Biden, now the assured winner of the Democratic primary, who called for the rally to beat Donald Trump.
In announcing to his supporters that he was throwing in the towel, the independent senator greeted Joe Biden as a "very respectable man" and said that he would work with this more moderate candidate in order to advance his program firmly anchored on the left.
