I sure as hell didn't vote for it ....

A lot of people didn't vote for it. A lot of people didn't vote at all.

yeah each country has their far right but they tend to be more maganalized, I've talked about how the democrats would have trouble getting elect ed in the non extreme far right in most countries.

For us, we have National which is the major right wing party, pretty much centre right, and we have Act which is far right, they seem to get some cues from USA Republican party. They are an oddity, and generally wouldn't win any seats in parliament if National didn't gift them an electorate by not putting an candidate up for election there. The Act party isn't religious in nature.
The USA Republican party would be more right than our Act.
The Democrat party would be more right than our National party. I feel the USA Democrat party compromise a lot in USA e.g. go for ACA rather than universal healthcare.

A lot of people didn't vote for it. A lot of people didn't vote at all.

And that's why the Dems lost and why Trump is in office and doing this crazy stuff.
Not voting is a choice and a contributor for the eventual government that USA has right now. Not voting, is abdicating your own responsibility and giving power to the loud minority.
