That's just trying to get me to accept "lesser of two evils" in different words. But I'm rejecting your entire argument; the whole thing, because I don't accept your starting position.
No. My starting point is to determine where good / evil properly belongs in making my decision on how to act.
My first question should be, "Is voting good or evil, or possibly neutral as far as morality"? There are some who abstain from voting. They have their reasons. I do not hold the act of voting to be evil.
So I have decided that I will vote. And, in the current situation, my knee jerk reaction was to ignore the binary choice. I would send a message, all of that sort of thinking. But, I did not lock myself into that and remained open to persuasion. I continued to read and to think and to engage in serious conversation with serious people who saw things from a different perspective.
Trump and Clinton are certainly evil in the sense that every son and daughter of Adam is evil. The third party candidates are also evil. So regardless, if I vote there is no escape from voting for evil. (The Amish opt out option makes sense, though I choose otherwise.)
Perhaps I decide that third party is my best option. I can punish the Republicans and build "something" for the future. My choice won't impact the November results, but who cares. I've made my stand.
But then, I step back and play out the only two realistic results of November.
1 Clinton wins and we perhaps lose the Senate or are greatly diminished in both houses. She gets eight years of free wheeling to advance the statist agenda. What will restrain her? The Constitution Party? We already know the Republican Party won't
2. Trump wins a close election, even without the support of a sizable number of Conservatives. He makesacceptable SCOTUS appointments, or he finds Cruz, Lee, Sessions, Sasse, eyc aligning with the Dems to block him. He halts the downsizing of our military. He rescinds executive orders. He brings an end to race baiting.
What else might he do? He's a known unknown. HRC is a known known.
There is clearly a better / worse choice to be made.
It is not between good and evil or the lesser of two evils.
