That's an interesting example, I'll have to look it out and see if the context bears it out. I say that as although yes he might have only gotten 43%, the question is how many registered voters didn't vote and how many eligible but unregistered voters there were.
Vermont has a fairly high voter turnout, but looking at Vermont's Secretary of State 2016 had a voter turnout of 63% of Voting Age Population from census population. So that 185k of 505k thousands people who didn't vote.
Also if I have the right numbers from Vermont' SOS, that's 43% of the state total 63% who voted.
I've read other demographic breakdowns on those who don't vote which is worth looking into, but it's hard for me to see someone say that there isn't a mass when we have this huge population of American citizen who don't vote. Something between 35-45% of the US just doesn't. That's a huge swath of disenfranchised people.
Want countries to re-dollarize, you have to incentivize the, which probably means making the US the dynamic yet stable economic it was. Punishing countries, how laughable.
I think that ship has sailed though, as globalization has caught up yet again.
