That's really funny, because all I've heard around this place for the past four years is how nobody will ever, ever again vote for the lesser of two evils.

You are missing the point. The "lesser of two evils" refers to voting for a GOPe candidate rather than a Democrat candidate. Here, you are misapplying it to a candidate who not only is not GOPe, but is the most ardent and effective opponent of the GOPe. Voting for Trump over whoever is not voting for the lesser of two evils, simply because Trump is not GOPe. The "lesser of two evils" was never a test for ideological purity, as many claimed, but rather a test for a candidates' relationship with the uniparty.

You go ahead and rationalize it any way you like, but in the final analysis, Trump doesn’t even come up to GOPe standards in terms of conservatism and conservative values. You sound like a German about to vote Nazi because they’re not Communists, they know how to get things done, and they want to keep Germany German.
