217. Wrong. It is nowhere near a consensus.

Quite a few Sanders supporters have said they would vote for Clinton. The holding of the nose and the pre-medicating with alcohol have been mentioned as adjuncts to the vote, but the vote will still count.

There are some people who take the stance of the OP that they won't vote for Clinton. My personal guess is that quite a few of them will, if Clinton gets the nomination, change their minds as Election Day approaches. The campaign will drive home to them how awful the Republican nominee is.
