Because they know how these things go. Everyone here is an even smaller percentage of Americans than the number of people who voted for West. You can't control the way that the average person is going to think and vote. But you can recognize it and try to support the lesser evil, or refuse to recognize it and maybe end up with the greater evil. Sorry, I don't make the rules, or it would have turned out very differently. Obviously a bunch of people said "I'm not voting for the lesser evil because of XYZ reason", so here we are with the greater evil.

They know how these things go? Its past tense now and we both know how things went. Your candidate that you don't even like lost astoundingly, thats how things went, thats the outcome all of you were pushing for.

If your candidate loses its voters fault, but if my candidate loses its the candidates fault. Your candidate was a piece of shit nobody liked, with an outcome people like me saw coming.

Simma downa. She wasn't my candidate and I didn't vote for her. I'm just conveying the rational. Everyone knew what the only possible choice was to try to stop trump. To be clear, I didn't vote for her because I live in a very blue state, and knew I could safely make my stand without increasing the odds of a trump win.
