Bernie Sanders is back in the headlines. He said this morning he will vote for Hillary Clinton for President, but stopped short of a full endorsement of his presidential rival more than a week after the final primary contests.

Sanders said, among other things, that his vote "in all likelihood will go to Hillary Clinton" and that he will not vote for Gary Johnson, the Libertarian candidate.

Sanders has yet to call on his supporters to vote for Clinton and hasn't said whether he would campaign on her behalf. His latest comments simply acknowledged the inevitable, that Clinton mathematically will become the Democratic nominee.

Meanwhile Trump is overseas, in Scotland, for the grand opening of his newest business operation. But, he says if he becomes the next president, he will probably leave his businessman title in the past.

Trump said, "If I win, I would - even though I don't have to do that - I would probably put everything in trust. My children will run it, along with my executives - it's a big company. My children will run it along with my executives and do a good job running it."

Trump also weighed in on yesterday's "Brexit" vote. He says the U.K. will be stronger for leaving the E.U. and the public made the right decision. Ironically, Scotland, where Trump spoke, was the only country in the U.K. NOT to vote to leave the European Union.
