You have no way of knowing how many stayed home.

And I have never said you did not vote for Hillary , so where is the lie. In fact I have never said you did not support Hillary, so where is the lie.

What I know is that you supported people who were supporting Stein and to the extent you got very angry with me for simply telling people we needed to :"reel in the people who were going to vote for Stein or any third party candidate. You call me a liar a lot these days and I do not lie!

And you totally missed the logic regarding Stein. And it wasn't just you, I knew a lot of liberals who hated Hillary and supported Stein. I had two good friends walk out of a dinner party when I said everyone must vote for Hillary.

I did not lie, I said you supported people who supported Stein and that was the truth. In fact you repeated it many times including a few months ago. And you repeated it defiantly.

You are not grasping the idea that by supporting Stein, you and others , were giving her validity. And that was a motivator for many people and especially young and naive liberals who did not like Hillary to stay at home., or vote Stein or Johnson.

Laying the blame on Bernie is the lie.

" you do not know how many people stayed at home "
Not enuf in 3 states, but 117M nationally How Many People Didn't Vote In The 2016 .

"people like you supported her "
I voted for Hillary, so you need to drop that lie. I supported the right of her supporters to vote for her.

"We all should have been telling the rest of the liberals Stein was an asshole spoiler "
I think your message got thru, which is why those Bernie Bros voted for Trump instead of for her. Good job.
