Bernie Sanders, more than any other politician I& #39;ve been exposed to in my adult life, has done more to help me envision—and work toward—a future that I& #39;d be proud to hand off to my children. I know a fair number of you feel similarly.
If your candidate has dropped out of the race, it& #39;s natural to feel deflated—especially if you& #39;re having to sift through tweets of people gloating over the failure of someone who inspires hope in you. Maybe you feel like sitting November out. If that& #39;s you, I hope I can help:
The 2020 election will have huge ramifications beyond who is sitting behind the Resolute desk, the most important of which is the Supreme Court. Trump winning reelection makes it likely that, you, reading this, will be dead before Republicans lose their Supreme Court majority.

Every candidate has their shortcomings, but Trump is undeniably orders of magnitude worse than literally any of the candidates who ran for the Democratic nomination. If you& #39;re unconvinced on this, this is a list of terrible things Trump has done: https://web.archive.org/web/20200205170142/https://paperspaperspapers.wordpress.com/2017/01/25/the-everything-terrible-the-trump-administration-has-done-so-far-omnibus/">https://web.archive.org/web/20200...
If you& #39;re feeling disappointed about Biden being the Democratic nominee, I& #39;d encourage you to review his policy positions. It& #39;s entirely possible that you disagree with him less than you think you do.
