It’s a statement of preference for Trump over Clinton, like William Blum’s <https://williamblum.org/aer/read/147 <https://williamblum.org/aer/read/147>> - and for similar reasons.
I voted for Stein but deplore her recently-revealed subservience to the Democrats in attempting to influence the Electoral College to make Clinton president.
It’s a very long shot, but then (as Nate Silver argued) so was Trump’s nomination.
Did you endorse Clinton?
