If you didn't vote then you voted for the bad guy.

If you didn't vote you are just as bad as the MAGAniacs.

If you didn't vote you voted for Trump.

If you didn't vote you are responsible for the current situation.

Both options were bad.

You ran a shit candidate and lost, take the L and be better

Cannot disagree more and this kind of rhetoric is not likely to sway non voters.

Who cares? Fuck them. They need to feel shame.

Its just not a winning strategy.
If you are fine with the world burning to stand on principles so be it though.

Do you understand why that sounds incredibly hypocritical in this context? This could read equally well as a condemnation of someone that didn't vote.

most non voters are not principled.

The leftists who didn't vote for the dems because they are just slightly better are absolute morons though.

Yeah well, absolving them of shame and blaming Anyone and everyone except nonvoters isn't a winning strategy either. As evidenced by gestures around

How about we shame the 2 candidates that should've won in blowout victories but instead lost to donald trump?

How about we shame the people that nominated them over the alternatives?

If anything, it just shows how awful the democrat's nominees were that they couldn't even beat trump.

You people only have yourselves to blame. Stop running loser candidates.
