In their defense, they faced a tough choice: convicted sex offender or empty suit.
All other things aside, don't you think choosing a convicted sex offender over an empty suit is quite damning on its own? Are his values the values USA wants to promote both internally and externally? Apparently so. :(
And, also, both are empty suits (and that's rather par for the course in politics). Additionally, one of the empty suits shows cognitive decline.

Trump's victory, including popular vote and all, is quite astonishing and in many ways incomprehensible.

What kind of four years (and beyond) is this going to be, yikes.

It's sad if that's tough.
Indeed; I don't mean in their complete defense.
