It's ok to not want either but it's pretty clear which is worse for the world and it's the one that is encouraging Russia to attack NATO members who they perceive as not pulling their own weight.
Funnily enough that's the same one that looked at a picture of the perdon they were getting sued by (who was sitting in the same room) and thought it was their ex-wife.
As long as people become trapped in the choice between which one is worse they will be trapped by the false dichotomy. Neither is good, let's seek better alternatives.
Seeking better alternatives is absolutely what we should do but a general election isn't the time to do that. The general election is the time to pick which of the two turds is better.
If we really want change at the national level we have to start locally. If a third party candidate wins the presidential election without support in Congress they will have a disastrous term.
