Sometimes we hold our nose and vote. Because the alternative is so deeply problematic our moral judgement of one is dwarfed by the moral and practical horror of the other.

Sometimes we don't make excuses for enabling genocide, but I guess that moral and practical horror is a-okay to some.

Not voting against Trump is enabling even more genocide and the end of some women and minority rights so don't pretend like you've got the moral high ground if your refuse to vote because of the Democrats stance on Israel.
