That doesn't follow.

I would have voted for Hillary because she is slightly less ugly.

What was that thing P.J. O'rourke said? Something about how he was going to vote for Hillary because he preferring the incompetent over the truly awful.

I can't vote in the US anyway because I was fortunate enough to not have been born there.

Edit: I can't remember now if it was O'rourke or Zizek who said that.

It was O'Rourke, on "Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me" on 2016-05-07:

  I am endorsing Hillary. And all her lies
  and all her empty promises. I am endorsing
  Hillary. The second worst thing that could
  happen to this country. But she’s way behind
  in second place, you know? She’s wrong about
  absolutely everything – but she’s wrong within
  normal parameters.
