Well our good conversation veered off track. My original point was, in my humble opinion, Trump is really the lesser of two evils.   Sure I believe he’s a patriot at heart.  
But is he an ideal candidate? Hell no!!!!!
People have a tendency to blindly and passionately “hero worship” the candidate on their side of the isle while dismissing all of their faults and shortcomings.  Like I said, Stockholm Syndrome.  

An ideal candidate is most likely someone who would actually not want the job.
