My first was fug... but then I had been listening to young voters too long that I was relieved he stepped out and watched what Sunday, them roll it out and so so so impressed. I had friends like you upset and I was sending htem all the upbeat and positive cause I wanted them excited not upset. It truly was a once in a lifetime

And now.... youth got what they want and they are beholden to get their ass out to vote and bring a friend.
