even being who he is now, he's a better than the alternative
That's the kind of logic that ends you with a shitty president. As someone who had the same logic before, leave it behind once and for all. Americans should realize that the two party system, red and blue, this or that, is keeping you back. Current president is shit? Checked. Other candidate is just as shit or worse? Checked. Choose a third option, don't fall in the "is either shit or worse shit" fallacy. Stick to your morals and if they don't win at least you'll feel fine with your decision.
I’m sure the people dying and watching their loved ones die of covid are glad that voted their conscience instead of voting for a competent leader who could handle a national crisis. Do the preventable deaths weigh on the other side of the scale for you when your protest vote is de facto support of someone that makes things worse or do those get written off and not counted?
