I understand why people didn't vote for Hillary. I am looking at the outcome and asking if it was worth it.
I didn't mean to give the impression that you were singling me out. I was just pointing out that not all people that refused to vote Clinton just refused to vote at all.
You definitely implied that if people had more concern for minority and LGBT rights, they would have realized they needed to vote for Clinton, and the "ties to Wall St." part is a direct quote.
