NEW YORK — It's been a dramatic week in the Democratic presidential primary, with Elizabeth Warren, Michael Bloomberg, Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar all dropping out of the race.

Two-time presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton has yet to endorse any of the three remaining candidates: Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders or Tulsi Gabbard. But as of now, it seems unlikely she'll throw her weight behind Sanders, whom she slams as a "career politician" that "nobody likes" in her Hulu docuseries "Hillary," now streaming.

Although Clinton was interviewed for the film a year and a half ago, her thoughts on Sanders remain unchanged.

"Look, I just want the strongest candidate we can get against Trump," Clinton told USA TODAY on Super Tuesday. "I don't think he's the strongest candidate for the general election, and we'll see how the voters feel. That's what today's about." (Sanders ultimately won four states including California, while Biden won 10.)

Clinton went on to criticize a vocal contingent of supporters who are "all in with Bernie" (also known as "Bernie Bros" online). Some of his more extreme backers have a history of bullying and harassing female journalists and people who support other candidates on social media.

"Some of the stuff they say (on the internet) and the way they treat people, it's shocking to me," Clinton says. "I don't understand how we got to this point, I really don't. It's bad enough coming from the right, but coming from the left?"

"There’s a culture that gets created," she continues. "And (Sanders) always says, ‘Oh, no, I don't want anybody doing that,’ but everybody around him keeps driving it. They keep pushing it. They are among the leaders of the band of nastiness. Look what they did to Elizabeth Warren, who literally shares his platform. And it’s not only going after Elizabeth, but it’s the sexism in going after Elizabeth.

"The way they are talking about her and treating her? I don’t get it. I don’t want (that behavior) rewarded. I don’t want it rewarded on the right, I don’t want it rewarded on the left."

Clinton, 72, shares more thoughts on the 2020 election and President Trump's reaction to the coronavirus outbreak in the U.S.

Question: No one knows better than you what it's like to debate Trump. Do you have any advice for whoever the Democratic nominee is about how to handle him in a debate setting?

Hillary Clinton: Well, most of the analysis of the three debates I was in with him concluded that I'd won, and I'd won because I raised questions; I was able to rebut a lot of what he said. But his bullying presence, his insulting rhetoric does appeal to a certain percentage of voters. So I think whoever debates him – if he debates, and I think it's going to be interesting to see whether he will debate whoever our nominee is – you've got to be constantly telling the American people what you want to do. But also not letting him get away with his outrageous lies and his very vicious rhetoric, because you want to show you can stand up to him and represent our country in a way that will demonstrate who we are and what we believe.

Q: Is there a candidate who you think is best equipped to go toe-to-toe with Trump?

Clinton: I think voters are going to be looking for someone who presents an alternative to Trump: not only his policies, like giant tax cuts for corporations and trying to do away with healthcare coverage for people who have preexisting conditions. But also (someone) who respects our institutions and the rule of law, understands that we're gonna have a lot of repair work to do after four years of this president. So I just want the nominee who is going to win the Electoral College, because obviously I know very well you can win 3 million more votes and not be inaugurated. And that's what voters are trying to decide. I'm going to continue to speak out about the threat that Trump poses to our nation and try to convince voters to take their vote very seriously.

Q: Obviously, coronavirus is on everyone's mind right now. What are your thoughts on the current administration's plan to contain it?

Clinton: I think the coronavirus threat illustrates what many of us have feared for a long time. When you do as Trump does, and call anything that is possibly inconvenient for him a hoax; when you undermine science, evidence, facts, truth; when you rid the government of all but those who are intensely loyal to you and your particular future – and therefore you lose experts who are prepared to deal with everything from natural disasters to disease – you're going to have some problems. And I think that's what we've been seeing.

With the coronavirus, thankfully, there are still people in our government who have a lot of expertise who have not been driven out. But (Trump) cut the budgets of important organizations like the Centers for Disease Control that used to keep vigilant watch on what was happening in other countries so that we would be prepared, and right now, we're playing catch up: We're playing catch up on testing kids. We're playing catch up on the availability of adequate hospital treatment for people who do get very sick. So I can only hope that at the state and local level, working with the experts who are still in our government, that we can deal with this disease threat in a sensible, smart way and try to limit what it causes in our nation.
