I get the sentiment, and I would vote for AOC if I were in New York, but yeah... this election feels like a foregone conclusion.

Inb4: "A lot can happen in four months, you don't know for sure." blah blah blah

It's one thing for folks like us to just say that to each other, but people in positions of power should not make that sort of apathy public. That's my opinion, st least. I'm emotionally preparing for a Trump victory, but I'm still going to vote against him and encourage my friends to do the same.

Definitely. When you are in their position you have that hopelessness in the comfort of your private spaces but do your best to drum up fire and fight publicly.
