From what I've read, the two times Trump won, many Democrats felt that they were denied this choice, which left them disillusioned, and they didn't vote. I don't think that's the main reason for Trump's victory, but what you touched on was definitely a factor in the Democrats' loss.

I wonder how many times we need this to happen for people to learn that letting others make your choices for you will often lead to your worst possible option.
