As happened in 2016, even though the outcome was certain. That was highly destructive. I’m not sure we shouldn’t wait until after next Tuesday, though, when the large states of Ohio, Florida, and Illinois will vote. It’s a huge number of delegates.

Just so people accept that this thing is really decided. If we have a debate before that, I would like it to be a civilized, united one that “practices” the kinds of stances we will take, together, to defeat Trump in November. No attacking each other, though, because there’s no point to that now

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