How Brexit convinced me to vote for Hillary
I was planning to cast a protest vote in November: write in Mitch Daniels or one of my terrific nephews, and vote Republican down-ballot to support strong Republican voices in Congress and help rebuild the party in the long run.

Presidential contests are two-person races in the United States, and the only candidates who have a serious prospect of victory are the party standard-bearers.
Protest votes are more satisfying than voting for the lesser of two evils, but they could result in Donald Trump being elected, just as British protest votes created an outcome many who cast those ballots realized, only too late, they never wanted at all.
