If he wasn't running at all? Ideally, Haley. But I'd be fine with Pence - especially if he was running as an incumbent. Nearly anybody but Roy Moore or Steve King would be an improvement on Trump.

Is your goal having a better person or to win the election?

The reality is that you view Trump as a bigger threat than the Left

I view Trump as the fastest path to empowering the Left. Trump is bad for us in many ways, but worst of all is how he gains for the Left new recruits & new arguments. Ignoring that doesn't make it go away.

The Left has been dominating our institutions for decades and the GOP chose to stay powerless. Weak GOP leadership, especially during Obama era, enraged rank and file. Jeb! wasn’t the cure

My view - colored by my background as a lawyer - is that it is easier to defend the innocent than the guilty. Yes, the Left will say all the same things vs any R. But it actually matters to the success of those arguments if those things are true. Trump gives them ammunition.

That’s what you fundamentally don’t get about politics. This isn’t a court of law, your being a lawyer is irrelevant and winning elections over a far Left Democratic Party night require enlisting ppl you find icky

Of course it's not the same as a court of law. But pick an examplek: is it easier to convince young women that Trump respects women than it would be with Cruz or Haley or Pence or Romney? The man's extensive record of words & conduct make it so easy for Ds.
