Let's say that Hillary wins the Democratic nomination.
Let's also say that Trump wins the Republican nomination.
Given that young people typically don't turn out to vote, let's also say that 75% of Sanders' supporters---the "young, militant left, ultra progressives"--- decide to just stay home on election day.
Do you honestly think that, on election day, Hillary's supporters---the mostly older women and a few older men, and various minority groups---will outnumber those of Trump's?
I don't.
Because angry people are incentivized to vote. As are those who absolutely do not want the opponent to win. And both of those groups are tremendous populations that Hillary has to overcome in order to win.
