They are certainly responsible for Trump doing what they will do. No amount of mental gymnastics can make that go away. You had a vote, it was what it was, you had to accept reality or live in a bubble roleplaying that your vote was something it was not.

Trump is responsible for what Trump is going to do. In fact, he was responsible for what he did back in 2020 as well. And the justice system responsible for putting him behind bars didn't do what it was supposed to either.

Trying to blame Trump's nonsense on people who didn't vote for either party is divisive and propaganda. Rather the people should collectively hold those in power accountable for their actions (or lack thereof)

And convincing people that voting for a third party in a two party system ...... isn't propaganda?

This isn't rocket science, it's just the train dilemma. If you know that Trump is going to do more harm and do not engage in harm mitigation then you are in some part responsible for not mitigating the harm.

You can't just declare yourself innocent and be innocent. We all pay taxes that are currently being used to murder children.
