People say that it helps Trump. It doesn't. Even winning the office wouldn't help him...build a wall, for example. The choice you missed is to refuse to participate. To refuse legitimizing the charade with your vote. They'll put -somebody- in the office whether you vote or not, and..like you said..it's not like there was any real choice to begin with. As it stands, though, when our girl hillary invades some other shithole country in search of more lucrative opportunities for profit - that shit's on you just as surely as it would be if you were a trump voter and he'd done it.
I hope that america gets tired of this "lesser of two evils" bullshit before they prop the next two turds up. That has to happn, or we can't legitimately bitch about things not changing. Consider the impotency of a president who wins at some fraction of a 13% turnout? Not much room to claim a public mandate...either nationally or globally. Yeah, we'd end up with a lame duck for a term....wouldn't be the first time. We keep getting this shit because we keep putting up with it.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
