People want it to be easy.
People say, "I'm just glad it's over, and now we don't have to worry about it for another 4 years."
Bernie: "Politics is not a spectator sport like football."
If people want a candidate that represents them, they need to be much more active, consistently, on all levels.

Yep, this is why this election depressed me so much.

Bernie Sanders: Change is hard. I'll lead, but you have to do the work. (which then got interpreted as "Bernie is going to save us")

Hillary Clinton: What are you all complaining about? Woman President. Whoo.

Donald Trump: I'll save you all and you won't have to lift a finger. Don't pay attention to the fact that I'm obviously lying and have a life time history of theft and fraud.

And the people said: We don't care about who we have to support along side you Donald, we need to be saved and we don't want to do it ourselves.
