So vote for the lesser evil even though it's still evil right? If you ask me, the Democratic Party needed this kick in the arse. Real progressive Democrats must build the party again. They need these 4 years. Clinton winning would have meant the status quo w more corporate Democrats. Bernie is already the most popular politician in the US, they can build on his platform. 

No one needs this kind of kick in the arse. The DNC isn't the one that is hurting, everyone is. I mean, yes, what they did is shitty and what happened is shitty but the price that was paid for butthurt people who think the best way to support Bernie is to do the exact opposite of what Bernie wants overshadows everything.

I might be biased here because I can absolutely not stand stupid people in power. So I say that Trump will forever be the worst President the US will ever have and literally nothing would be worth not voting against him.

I am a Brit, but let me say this: The American people will survive these 4 years (hopefully less), the political system is what needs to die a death before it can get better. Even though Trump is terrible and an absolute tosser, he is a changing force in the status quo. Because of him, two things are happening: The Republican party is becoming a clownshow and can never be taken seriously, and the Democratic Party is starting to show signs of reform.
