I don't agree with this idea. In voting wether it concerns the country or not, abstaining is a right. I don't want to be forced down to swallow a pill just because I'm lead to have an illussion that there are only two choices I can make.
Saying someone who sits out is just helping trump is downright wrong. There's something very wrong when you say, if you're not with us then you're the enemy. Not sure what exact word to use for it but that's kinda like false dichotomy.
However I believe if you abstain, you don't have the right to be very vocal about pointing fingers to those who voted such decisions.
