For the most part, nobody really cares about this debate outside of some Sanders supporters who were hoping it would drastically change the race, because the race is over. Plus, the rest of the country is a little distracted at the moment by a pandemic.

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