Some people couldn’t stomach voting for the most open border politician in the republican party.

If you want to blame something, how about a primary process that lets non-republicans decide the victor in many states.

(I haven’t heard anything is being done to fix this for next time)

And what was south carolina thinking anyway

exactly. open primaries and liberal candidates are the problem. You can’t blame non-voters who had nothing to vote for.

You mean let all the voters decide, the republicans will never go for that.

Being that the GOP Primaries were finished long before the Democratic Primaries, it is doubtful that many Democrats voted in the GOP Primaries. However, if you recall, there was a movement lead by Rush Limbaugh called "Operation Chaos" where he encouraged Republicans to vote for Hillary in open Democratic primaries.

And we all know how well Mr. Limbaugh's "Operation Chaos" scheme worked.
