Launching a scathing attack on Democratic hopeful Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton in a documentary said that 'nobody likes him'. 

The former US secretary of state refused to say whether she would endorse and campaign for Sanders if he becomes the Democrats' choice to take on President Donald Trump in November's election.

A four-part series about the life and 2016 presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton, which is set to premiere at Sundance and stream on Hulu on March 6th, has interviews with Hillary as well as her daughter Chelsea Clinton.

"He was in Congress for years. He had one senator support him," Clinton has said in the docu-series, drawing of Sanders' supporters who called on Clinton to support the candidate the party backs in their bid to remove Trump from the White House.

Clinton also said that “he (Sanders) got nothing done. He was a career politician.”

"It's all just baloney and I feel so bad that people got sucked into it," she adds.

Not holding back, she also expressed concern about the 'culture' around Sanders and how supporters of the leftist Senator from Vermont attacked woman candidates. “You either don't know what your campaign and supporters are doing, or you're just giving them a wink and you want them to go after Kamala (Harris) or after Elizabeth (Warren),” Clinton said and added that people should take all this into consideration before making their decision.

Sanders sits second in national polls behind centrist Joe Biden and ahead of Massachusetts senator Elizabeth Warren, two weeks before the first nomination vote in Iowa. Clinton has criticized Sanders and his supporters for not sufficiently supporting her in the presidential role.

Sanders, 78, pushed 72-year-old Clinton to the wire four years ago in an acrimonious, months-long battle for the party's nomination. Clinton won that race but lost to Trump.

Clinton stopped short of saying she would support Sanders if he won the nomination this year.

Clinton, in a tweet, expanded on her views and wrote, “I thought everyone wanted my authentic, unvarnished views! But to be serious, the number one priority for our country and world is retiring Trump, and, as I always have, I will do whatever I can to support our nominee."

The docu-series that looks at Clinton's accomplishments objectively, gives an interesting insight into how the woman who made it far into the 2016 elections came to be.

Sanders played down the attack in the documentary, telling reporters that he was focused on Trump's impeachment trial, which kicked off in earnest Tuesday.
