the lesser of two evils

Pick the lesser of two evils all you want, it's still evil.

the lesser of two evils

The Democrats or Republicans, whichever party you vote for (unless you do the "cool thing" and vote for some third party sack of shit).
Don't throw you're vote away on some third party douche, at least vote for the lesser of two evils.

The evil of the lesser two

A situation where you’re forced to choose between two bad options, neither of which you want, but one is slightly less awful than the other.
Neither option was good, so I just chose the evil of the lesser two.”

It came down to the evil of the lesser two, and I still wasn’t happy about it.

I didn’t want either outcome, but sometimes you just pick the evil of the lesser two and move on.
