Also, can we blame the Republican party who used voter suppression to reduce millions of democrat votes? It's less than 90 million that didn't vote. Many of them were prevented or had their ballots tossed, more so this election than any other.

This! I had to make a shitton of phone calls and an appointment to get my voter registration sorted like 2 weeks before the election. I'd been registered to vote since I was 18. Steaming pile of bullshit.

Every time I've gone to vote I've had to re-register beforehand. Almost forgot to double check before the last election, it sucked.

It was a team effort. Lots of people are to blame for different reasons.
