No, PEOPLE delivered us Trump. Not politicians.
“I can’t believe you didn’t do a good enough job convincing me to go with a better option” is a disingenuous attitude that removes intentful culpability from voters.
It's certainly both the lack of progressive policies, that are popular and address the material needs of working Americans, and the lack of messaging on that front. Regardless of how much you personally assign the blame to voters, it is ultimately on the campaign to earn votes. And the Democratic Campaign certainly failed in that respect
