I think voting for none of the above is a meaningful choice. Third parties have little hope if we must insist they can’t win. I get the pragmatic consideration of picking somebody who can win, who is even marginally better, but there are other valid ways of weighing who to vote for.
I’m fine with Frink or whoever else thinking it’s crazy, but in the last election I didn’t see a marginally better choice.
Do you still feel that way now?
We can never know how terrible (or not) it would have been under Clinton so I can’t say. Trump has exceeded my (low) expectations in some areas to advance conservative causes. Maybe Clinton would have been like her husband and made deals to pass conservative policies with the GOP congress and maybe she’d have us more heavily involved in Syria. Too many what ifs.
The notion that everybody should obviously have voted for Clinton is nonsense. I think all of America should have refrained from voting in 2016.

That’s fair, but it would have been the right thing to do.
