It is up to candidates to justify why they deserve votes, not voters to justify not falling in line with lesser of two evils politics. If candidates are confident that being slightly better than the opposition is enough to win, that's all they will feel pressure from voters to be
Fight for your preferred political progressive candidate until the bitter end. But if your preferred progressive loses, throwing the whole election away is not principled, it's immature, short-sighted, and could be genuinely dangerous for people.https://twitter.com/ShaunKing/status/938786971895369728 …

For decades liberals have held their noses + voted defensively for compromised candidates who entrench us further to the right, creating a new “center” that is actually right-wing. Soul-killing. The energy + $ have to be used to challenge wimpy dems + running true progressives.

When Democrats like
@MarkWarner vote to Rescind Banking Rules? When the same Senator has a history of willing to “adjust” SS benefits? When@SenSchumer &@SenGillibrand want to make it A FELONY to protest Israel? What should we do? Say, yessah, more please? -
Criticize those actions but don't lose sight of the bigger picture, handing the government to Republicans is destroying environment, our society and our democracy.

Exhibit B: Al Franken I'm not in any way putting him on the same branch (or even tree) as Trump. Accused of sexual harassment, Dems are tossing him out for moral differential (e.g,. Roy Moore). Is this really a good thing? Or just politics as usual?

I prefer Al Franken not step down at this point in time, but that he never ever runs for political office again

My argument for voting Hilary: Its easier to organize and operate politically under the least hostile candidate's tenure in office
-
Some people may argue that having the opposition in office is better for organizing--generates more animus and focus on problems
