    I don’t think it’s a pivot to say now that he’s chosen to step down we can continue. It’s still honoring the process so long as the choice themselves steps aside voluntarily.

      A lot of states (mine included) have already had their primaries, so if he steps aside then those states will not have had a say in selecting the democratic candidate. I’m guessing the talking point will then shift to something along the lines of ‘I didn’t get a choice in who the next candidate will be, so I’m not voting’ or calling for all states to re-run their primaries like that’s an option.
