    As both of these options cannot simultaneously be true

    They absolutely can. Protest voters not voting don’t encompass every democrat vote lost, there are simply many unconvinced people who became apathetic and didn’t vote despite having nothing to do with protest voters, with the latter being a minority. Stop your logical fallacies based on false premises.

      So, you’re claiming that the protest both worked to help elect trump, and simultaneously didn’t work to help elect trump……

      Gotcha.

        I’m claiming that protest voting wasn’t a significant factor in trump being elected, unlike democrats running on having the, I quote, “most lethal army in the world” during an ongoing genocide, bringing the Cheney, and a myriad of other problems. The dems only have themselves to blame for being incapable of offering a better, more desirable option than Donald J fucking Trump

          Sooooooo…. All the people saying “you should have listened to us!” and, “We told you this would happen!

          Liars?

          Because a LOT of you seem to think that your little protest was a clear message sent and received.

            Not liars, just unaware that, outwards (i.e. internationally), there is no difference in policy between democrats and republicans. Now, what are you gonna do, bash to the left of you (the ones who actually organise to fight against fascism), or join us?
