    Perhaps. But Trump will ALSO interpret victory as a mandate,

    I’m not worried that my vote will be interpreted by Trump as a mandate to support genocide, because I’m not voting for Trump.

      Completely understood. Not implying you would. Just trying to impress as a matter of general statement how important it is that he NOT win. He will interpret victory as a mandate. I know everyone is sick of hearing it, but it is so important that it bears repeating as much as the discourse can support, because the voices claiming a noble ideological victory from abstention have no such qualms about flooding the conversation wherever they can.
