I'm sick of threats of voters not voting

If this guy or that guy dosent get the nomination thier voters won't show up, ect. Ok. Don't show up. If your so up the ass of a candidate that you won't support another- your in more of a cult than a campaign. If you want to take your chips and go home, so be it. I'll be fine. I have a good job, fantastic health care in a house in Costa Rica. Stay at home but please don't post spend the next 4 years bitching and moaning about injustices, court rulings and some hard knocks life. I almost think campaigns on both sides are already setting up a narrative that they were screwed or robbed if they lose. So, in essence, if your candidate loses you can take some comfort in knowing that they were actually the victors but in America, the election is always rigged if your guy loses. Both parties have factions that have become tribal and to be honest- a bit self righteous and paranoid.

If Bernie wins the primary I'll gladly vote for him in the general.
If Biden wins the primary I'll gladly vote for him in the general.
If Warren wins the primary I'll gladly vote for her in the general.
If Klobuchar wins the primary I'll gladly vote for her in the general.
If Bloomberg wins the primary I'll hold my nose and vote for him in the general

And so it goes....

I believe it's extremely likely that many Democrats will probably follow the advice given by Jane Sanders to her twitter followers last election day. Basically, it seems to me that she was expressing her belief that it was okay to not vote for the party's nominee... as long as the person voted and "followed their heart".
