    By participating in this election, Americans could have stopped the rise of fascism for four more years by filling out a piece of paper with a pen.

      For over half the voters, the open rise of fascism was fine and not a deal-breaker. Trump has made no secret what kind of a president he was going to be. Trump’s numbers stayed the same and even did better in some places, even after running the most garbage campaign in modern history. A sizable portion of Americans want fascism.

      Too much to ask. They didn’t feel like we ‘deserved’ to avoid fascism. They couldn’t possible ‘reward’ non-fascists by voting against fascism.
