How about because of the political system that doesnt make rulers accountable to their base and give little incentive to appeal to anyone but the well of? Just make yourself slightly more appealing than the opposition
Keep blaming the politicians but everyone who didn't vote helped Trump and everything he will cause. Blame the Democrats all you like but it'll be you guys who suffer. Instead of voting for the lesser of two evils y'all just stood aside out of spite and let the fascist through. Disgraceful.
Ha! I voted dummy. My vote did count too because I supported an ammendment that will help protect woman's rights. Unfortunately I live in a state that doesn't get over represented in a presidential election so even if you were right you would be silly to excuse me of anything.
Everyone screaming about democracy just died. In fact it was always dead. Electoral college system basically disregards voter who does not vote for winning party. It’s a system where you have only two choices, thus less competition, thus lower quality of candidates. Then everyone is like “is this best US can do?”. Let alone gerrymandering. People should be rioting, not because Trump won, but because system is not democratic.
