re: #363 klys (maker of Silmarils)

We can play all kinds of what ifs. But to some extent, if you know someone who was disillusioned and therefore didn’t vote, even in the face of Trump, I would posit the problem was not with Obama.

Nobody gets everything they want in politics. Democratic voters in particular seem to need to understand that lesson and fast, and stop riding their damned purity ponies into defeating themselves.

Look at all the conservatives that ran to support Trump even when they knew he was way flawed.

Look at all the liberal/progressives that ran away from Hillary because she was flawed.

In that brief look we see the problems between the two sides of the political spectrum.

We need a little more of that stick-togetherness.

They need a little less.
