Anyone who refused to vote for Hillary, voted for Jill Stein or stayed home, enjoy your new dystopia.
At least well never have to hear that the next election is the most important election of our lifetime. That ship sailed in 2016.

I share your outrage at those that didnt vote for Hillary.

It's the Susan Sarandons and Jill Steins and the "I just don't trust Hillary" types who got us into this mess.

(28,816 posts)Besides, 2018 got us Congress. In 2020 we won the Senate. In 2022, we dislodged the fat guy.
So maybe your ship sailed, but many of us are still fighting.

(28,816 posts)It isnt over. Not in 2016 or 2020. But if you prefer to wallow in an election six years ago, then I dont see what that gets anyone.

(2,224 posts)& increase that posters post count. It doesn't help us at all win elections & may scare off some potential voters.

(4,104 posts)I got involved in the pro-choice fight in 1976, the first year that the Republicans included the anti-choice plank in their platform. Since 1968, Ive been marching in the streets on one issue or another.
Im 71 and sick by whats happening in this country. I didnt purposely try to pee in your Wheaties this morning.
