Thanks, but with all due respect, I don't need an apology. I think you ought to apologize to the well-meaning people who voted their consciences.
I agree with you that the more publicized Trump voters--the white, working class voters--will find their hopes unsubstantiated. And that's why we've got more elections. I hope those who are angry now, who are finger-pointing now, who are protesting now, can channel their feelings more productively toward building campaigns full of candidates they actually want to vote for (rather than not vote against, or stay home because of). Otherwise I'm not particularly interested in anything they say.

I have said repeatedly now that it's fine if you voted 3rd party or didn't vote. But if you did and now you are complaining about Trump, I have no sympathy. If you get your insurance from the ACA or are on food stamps, for example, and you didn't vote for Clinton, your bad. And you have no right to complain because you wasted your vote!
