I have problems with people who abstained. The hard thing is, how do you change voter behavior?

    Check this out: more than one person can be to blame for something. Crazy, right?

      Yes, and there’s lots of people at the DNC we can blame.

      But if an ignorant animal does something destructive you don’t blame the animal, you blame the person who was supposed to keep them from doing it.

        Another garbage analogy… If the animal had the intelligence level, sentience, and complex society on par with humans, then yes I would blame them.

        You could literally use that analogy for any person doing anything destructive, making nobody ever responsible for their destructive actions.

          But over in another comment you agree with me that voters are ignorant. So which is it, are they intelligent and sentient or are they ignorant, dumb, panicky animals?

          And if voters are intelligent and sentient, why does it cost a billion dollars to get them to vote?

          And if they’re intelligent, maybe we’re both wrong and they made the intelligent choice by not voting and letting Trump win.
