Er, why not? It's not like there's some kill switch in Python 2 that will make it stop working after January 1st, 2020. If it works now, then it'll still work, you're just not guaranteed fixes anymore. At least, not for free. As stated in the article, paid support options exist from several vendors.

Any software in the modern era that isn't upgraded for new OSes or security patched is dead.

Ok, sure. To you, maybe. But that's a far cry from saying they won't run anymore.
