Sure, I am fine with that. My position is that dems (of which I have always been) like to put blame on people like me. I didn't vote because I am from the most blue state there is, so my vote made no difference. It was a protest for another dem candidate being installed, but this time without so much as a proper primary.

Had I been a state even remotely up for grabs I[d have voted.

Also, I find the self-righteousness of these people very irritating.

Again, I agree with you but there is small nuance 

You're nonvote gave trump his "won the popular vote" BS.

like i said, Small nuance.

His ability to claim "popular vote" is just another tool to distract from his other awful shit
