And why exactly are you deciding what their message was supposed to be?  I think their message was pretty clear.

The whole video was started with the message of voting and it's importance.  Then there was a beat change, a swerve of focus. At most the message was loaded.  But ultimately the message was an anti-trump message.  The anti-trump message wasn't supposed to be their message, but rather the importance of voting.  Which at the end of the video was second fiddle to an anti-trump message.  If the point of this video was an anti-trump campaign, then go at it at full speeds with no deviation.  Riding the back of voting importance is a slap to it's target audience and is clearly just there to hide what the focus of the video was for from the start.

What did you think their message was, since it's so clear? 

The importance of voting was not their message.  The importance of voting against Trump was their message.  They called him a racist that threatens the fabric of the country, referred to a potential Trump presidency as a nightmare, mentioned specific Trump stances they disagreed with (immigration/gun laws), an so on.  There wasn't much subtlety, hiding, or trickery involved here.  Just because they didn't yell "fuck Trump" at the very begining of the video doesn't mean it was "supposed" to be about anything else.
