The thing is, there are so many other things that derailed it besides youth turnout. BS' behavior itself, then the lowest of the low that he hired to represent his campaign. Participating in the primaries of the party that you have identified as the enemy is just not appealing for a majority. The unwillingness to grow your base alone had to lead to a doomed campaign sooner or later.

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