Democratic rivals to meet after last primary Tuesday

WASHINGTON — Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders said Sunday he won’t endorse Hillary Clinton for president until they meet and he measures her commitment to battling Wall Street, wealth inequality and other priorities that powered his rogue presidential campaign. Sanders’ remarks were the first indication that the two Democrats planned to “chat” Tuesday evening after votes in the District of Columbia, the final Democratic presidential primary. Defeating presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump remains his first priority, Sanders said, leaving open the prospect of pursuing that goal at some point at Clinton’s side. Last week, Clinton claimed the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination, secured President Obama’s endorsement and took immediate aim at Trump. Rooted in pricey notions of free college educations and health care for all, Sanders’ campaign attracted scores of younger and female voters. The first general election ad released by her campaign splices clips of Trump threatening protesters and mocking a disabled reporter with scenes of Clinton visiting factories, greeting diverse groups of voters and stepping off a plane as secretary of state.
