I thought John McCain would have made a great President b/c of his ability to work both sides and get things accomplished.  I actually canvassed for him promoting his campaign, and if he picked someone other than Palin he probably would have won it.  I've always identified as a left-leaning libertarian and I did vote for Trump in 2016, b/c of his sentiment on the Iraq war. However, I quickly realized what his true intentions were and that was not to be president it's to be an authoritarian dictator.  Trump is definitely not a fiscal conservative, and that's what I think ppl were looking for in him.  Plus, he's done more damage to our democracy than Xi or Putin could have ever dreamt of doing and this is b/c of his malignant narcissism---a trait possessed by all authoritarians.   

I really wanted McCain to win in 2000...but the Bush team went dirty.

So I voted for him in 2008...but like with Biden, who I wanted to run in 2016, I did feel he was too old to run the second time.
