While I'm sure this is true, keeping the presidency away from the facists is still a good thing. If Dems+people voting for the lesser evil can't show up enough to prevent Rs taking congress the least we can do is have the Whitehouse stopping some of the Republican shitfuckery. It wouldn't save us but it should slow our descent, give us more time to fix things.

Rs are going to the polls anyway and an R who shows up to the polls without feeling like they have an option (because their media lies to them)will still vote Trump. Votes being taken away from him are a good thing.
