In reply to the discussion: HIGHLY CONTROVERSIAL: The Bernie Sanders voters who would choose Trump over Clinton [View all]revbones
(3,660 posts)regularly using the lesser of two evils in regards to fear of Trump lately. Now someone posts something about a story saying some would choose Trump over Hillary because in their mind, Trump is the lesser evil and of course it's not hypocritical at all...
Perhaps those choosing Trump, which I'm not advocating for, simply accept his racism as the lesser evil compared with Hillary's corruption, lies and favors she'll owe. I'm not saying it's correct, just that it's hypocritical of people to say choose the lesser evil, but scream bloody murder when someone else does just that because in their mind it's not Hillary.
Only give people a choice between corrupt establishment candidate and someone else, they might just take the someone else - even with all of Trump's flaws.
