That said, I quite like some of the people that Trump has assembled behind him. Vivek Ramaswamy is on a completely different level to most politicians and has that private-sector zeal that's needed to make real change. He looks like a future president in waiting to me. RFK Junior may have some controversial views, but he seems genuinely motivated to tackle the issues contributing to poor health in the US. And I know they are not everyone's cup of tea, but I'd genuinely be interested to see what a combination of Elon Musk and Ron Paul could achieve by auditing the public sector, cutting the fat, and driving real efficiency. JD Vance is also a more competent VP than Walz as far as I'm concerned.
Can you tell me the last election in any free country where either leader/candidate has been generally accepted as being a good choice?

Or tell me the last US election when one of the candidates has been a good pick for everybody. It's generally the media who picks the leaders and tells you how they would be for you.
