Protest votes are also a terrible idea.

Not only is this not the only issue in the world, but even just on this issue, with both (actual) options being bad, it's still the case that one side is orders of magnitude worse than the other.

Just want to make the point that this was the exact logic we had to stick with the grand malfeasance which was candidate Biden.

So no. Wrong. False.

If I had the option to vote for someone else in the primary (not counting brain worm or antivax, but even they had dropped out by then) then I would have.
My options were Biden or not vote in the primary. I wasn't happy about that, but I still would have chosen him over Trump in the general election of course.

Not voting or voting protest in Nov would still help Trump. That's just how the math works.
