There is a subset of Sanders supporters who were never going to vote for anyone other than Sanders.

There's really nothing we can do about them, so we should focus on those we can.

If they don't understand the threat that another four years of Trump represents and would rather throw tantrums and stay home, they don't care about anything Sanders stands for.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
