I found this satire piece to be absolutely delightful, capturing the potential rage that Hilary kept under wraps after it was announced that Trump won. It was a disappointing time, as that orange clown got the better of a far more fit person to serve in office.

Hmm that makes sense. And yet something like 3 million more people voted for her than trump, right? Maybe Kamala can pull this off if people tend to like her any amount better than Hillary. Also, I think Kamala will put in the extra effort, whereas, as you said, Hillary didn’t seem to.

Not Voted/No candidate represented an 86% super majority of the US during the 2016 election. This is a fundamental failure of both parties to produce a candidate.

Had "No Confidence/Vacant Office" been an option neither could have been elected.

I don't think the people that didn't bother voting would have left their home to vote for that choice either, so one of the actual candidates still would have won.
