The worst thing about Trump's campaign is that he's the least bad Repub candidate

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by tammywammy (a host of the 2016 Postmortem forum).

I definitely would not want Trump as POTUS. However, almost all of the other Repub candidates, including those who have dropped out, would be a lot worse. The early dropouts like Walker and Jindal were the worst of the bunch. The clowns like Carson and Fiorina were bad too even if they were funny to listen to. Bush was awful even though he had no fans. Cruz is the worst guy remaining and might be as bad as Walker and Jindal. Rubio is only slightly less bad than Cruz. I'd prefer having Trump as POTUS over Kasich too. It might be a close call between Trump and Kasich, but Trump is infinitely better than the 14 candidates not named Trump or Kasich who have run in the Repub primaries. I don't know why Reid pretended he was just joking when he said Trump is the Repub he'd least mind seeing in the White House.
