Voters should educate themselves, of course. Especially for local races, judicial races, and ballot measures. Some ballot measures are intentionally written to confuse voters, and people need to know the consequences of voting on stuff that might be put in their state constitution.
But unless you are very rich, need to suppress the voting rights of your employees, need to destroy to the environment for economic gain, get utility from overt bigotry by our government, don't want fair and open elections (this is rampant, and disgusting what the GOP are doing on the state level to suppress votes of students, and minorities, especially black people), want to rip away people's health insurance, want cruelty to minority groups, use your religion as an excuse to subvert anti-discrimination laws, voting against Trump and the GOP at the national level is within people's best interest.
The two parties policy proposals are very different. I am for people getting educated because once they do they see the "both sides" arguments are mostly nonsense.
There is a difference between the risk of a left-winger with problematic racial views potentially being elected, as opposed to members of an entire party whose entire guiding principle is white supremacy getting elected.
But still, vote for whoever you want. Just, Vote.
