Please Feel Free to Take Me for Granted

87. If you consider any of those things ...

... to be legitimate complaints that should be addressed, you're part of a much bigger problem.

Are you suggesting that every candidate should make campaign appearances in every city, town, rural area so that no one can use the "I didn't vote because they didn't campaign in my area" excuse? In a country of 300 million, I guess we'll have to expand the campaign by several years so that everyone gets covered.

Should Bernie have been the nominee, even though HRC clearly won the primaries by a wide margin, so that Bernie-or-Buster types wouldn't have voted third party?

Maybe a candidate should just fire anyone and everyone some people express a dislike for - so we don't have to listen to the "I hate so-and-so, and I didn't vote because they weren't ousted" whinging.

All elections have consequences, far-reaching consequences - and that was especially true this time around. Anyone who contributed to Trump's election because they voted for him, voted third party, or stayed home OWNS every disaster he will bring about.

If the reality of a Trump administration wasn't enough to "inspire" the whiners to ensure he DIDN'T win and to vote accordingly, maybe they should examine their own selfish motives rather than blame HRC's "loss" on absolute bullshit.

Hillary won the MAJORITY of votes. The MAJORITY of the citizenry chose her as their next president - despite the perpetually pissed-off butt-hurt who sat on their asses for reasons as ridiculous as "she didn't excite me enough".

Well, maybe they'll find pResident Trump "exciting" when people start losing their jobs, their homes, their healthcare, and their rights. Maybe they'll feel "inspired" when the cabinet is comprised of RW assholes, and the Supreme Court is populated with Scalias. Maybe they'll feel "motivated" when every progressive achievement under Obama is diluted, overturned, and/or destroyed.

When that happens - and it will - I wonder how the "I didn't vote for Hillary because she didn't campaign in my town" folks will feel. I have a feeling they won't look back on it as being such a good idea.
