US, Saudi Arabia and Uganda join forces to declare women have no intrinsic right to abortion

Lolwut. If you don't vote, you are quite literally expressing that you are okay with whoever gets in. If you weren't okay with a reprehensible person called Donald Trump running for president, then you would vote against the reprehensible person called Donald Trump who is running for president. If you did not know who Donald Trump was at the time of voting, that is your fault for not educating yourself about Donald Trump and instead watch the idiot box. This really is not rocket science.

I'm aware that the US is less democratic than many other countries and therefore, does not make it as easy to vote as a country like NZ or Australia does. Accordingly, I would give concessions to the minorities who truly do struggle to vote due to work / time / family constraints / general lesser privilege. For the rest of you who were apathetic / too ignorant to choose / "rebelling" against the system and didn't cast a vote, you share responsibility for the mess your country is in. What is it with yanks and their lack of self-accountability?
