And you're trying to compare voting in an election to being a terrorist now? Come on, you're just overreacting about this. 

I don't think he means you are literally a terrorist like bin Laden.  Have you ever heard the term "bomb-throwing" in the sense of taking a political stance that you just want to tear down the establishment at any cost?  He is saying that in the context of casting a vote a vote for Trump is a very destructive way to try to grab attention, trying to get your message across no matter the terrible cost.  (In fact, the bigger the mess is, the more you like it because of "sticking it to the man".)  I think the analogy to terrorism is a legitimate one from that perspective, although you can certainly disagree with his assessment of the consequences of electing Trump and your motivations for voting for him. 

Edit: Please read previous clarifications in this thread.
