Now that Trump has turned out to be so horrible, you’re hearing more “Democrats caused Trump” because Democrats didn’t turn out to vote, Democrats didn’t nominate someone more inspirational, blah blah.

Really? The people responsible for Trump are Trump voters. They own Trump and they are first and foremost responsible. There is no blame shifting allowed.

Obviously you own what you voted for. I think for a lot of people this last election was viewed as a choice between 2 bad choices. That’s the mindset of someone who makes that sort of comment. They’re saying you gave me two really bad choices. I made the one that I thought was marginally better than the other but neither was my first or ideal choice. I didn’t vote for either so I don’t own Trump or Hillary for that matter but it also meant I wasn’t going to be voting for the eventual winner.

It’s a bit like the choice that Covid-19 has put on the various executives in our government and other governments. Choose between two pretty bad choices. Let the virus run it’s course and kill people or basically destroy the economy for however long you think you can before the cure becomes worse than the disease. I’m sure plenty of progressive liberals and independents will vote for Biden. Not because they want Biden but it has to be better than Trump.
