“Your saying Fred is your first choice and the Huckster is your second. Is like saying, Ronald Reagan is my first choice, but Hillary is my second. Makes no sense whatsoever.”
YEP! It makes no sense...great point
That isn't what I said. Fred's my first choice. It doesn't look like he'll be an option by the time I get a chance to vote. So the question then becomes, 'which of the viable candidates is the least offensive?'
There's a big difference between 'second choice' and 'least offensive'.
