I really don’t understand the issue people have with individuals who are in safe red or blue states voting in protest
Because if all the individuals who think they’re in safe zones actually got out and voted seriously instead of protest voting or abstaining, THERE WOULD NOT BE ANY SAFE RED AREAS.
For that to actually for real happen, there would have to be a campaign and a candidate to convince enough people to do that. “We’re the harm reduction option” clearly isn’t that campaign.

Don’t be so sure.
Key sentence in that article: “The findings suggest that Mr. Trump’s brand of conservative populism once again turned politics-as-usual upside down”
As in: people don’t fucking want status quo.
Democrats: if we just status quo harder we’ll attract the unicorn moderates and win!
