Many of the Sanders supporters are in the horrible spiral of huge student debt, chronic under- or low wage employment. HRC will not make their lives better... in fact, will entrench the corporate oligarchs further (but there will be a rainbow coalition of corportists screwing us over).

young women do. Sanders people are all about their issues and not
other peoples concerns that don't affect them.
