Thank you. I apologize for my missteps, in return.

    I get sick of all the insinuations that the people who ardently didn't vote for Trump are somehow responsible for Trump.

I get that. You're now somehow responsible for shit you didn't even breathe towards as it was happening. Being blamed for something you didn't remotely caused.

I didn't try to say that you did, either. What I was trying to say was rather more abstract, and I didn't mean to insist that it's all your fault - or, for that manner, anybody in particular's. You can probably name a few far more responsible than others, though.

What I was aiming at - and what I should have put that as - was the concept of personal responsibility. "Everything that happens in my life is because of me". I believe in that, even if it's difficult to enforce and see at times.

I'm guessing you have a lot of shit on your plate already due to high standards, so me seemingly giving you more is an overkill.
