Voting One's Conscience

70. I'd have to know more...

... before I credited "ignorance," although given the strictures of the ToS, it's not a topic liable to be aired openly here. While one might think it is appallingly ignorant (willful or otherwise) to assess Mr Trump as a lesser evil, it is necessary to know the rationale for that assessment before passing judgement. One can see why Trump might be considered the lesser of two evils compared to, say, Mr Cruz (as Mr Carter has judged). One could accept that rationale compared to others who are running or have run for the GOP nomination. While I personally cannot see a rationale to assess Mr Trump as the lesser evil compared to any of the Democratic nominees, I'm open to the possibility that others might do the arithmetic differently, and would be intrigued to know why they added it up that way. (Speaking specifically of those for whom obvious reasons such as racism do not apply)
