    18-24 year olds didn’t show up for Bernie in 2015 or 2019. They aren’t coming this time. Their enthusiasm always get way overestimated.

        I also think millennials/gen X need to not demand Gen Z bail us out, especially since a substantial portion can’t even vote yet.

          Why not? As an elder millennial/xennial I’d be totally happy with Zs coming up to me saying we saved your ass for the rest of my life if they show up to vote.
