It is all well and good to have favorites. We all do. However, the objective is to nominate and elect the candidate most likely to win the nomination and then the election.
Aside from the favorite aspects all the candidates except perhaps Trump have a core set of values that are meaningful to us and welcome in a new presidency.
Trump shares many of those values as well, however his style is dictated by his independence and sheer fact he is not an insider. And a very big factor missing in most candidates, business and negotiating skills....and the ability to hire to cover his weaknesses (if any I always used to say!) and shore up his strengths.
I feel these atributes of Trump set him far and above the rest of the field as they depending on tenure are, when all gets said and done, business as usual politicians.
All the above being said we should all be looking to support the most likely republican leader.....in my humble opinion.
Isn't it a plus that we have the choice to do so. The democrats are very limited in what they can have.....felon or socialism.

What values does Trump have? If insulting everyone that doesn't agree with you is a value, he has one hellva a value. How far do you think that will take him in DC? It will take about two minutes for people there to turn a deaf ear to him.
Do you think that high tariffs, and sales taxes are going to fly? You think that the countries, that he attacks in this way, won't fight back. Do you think that you can turn a key, and poof a full function factory will appear in the US? He will do more harm to US companies that he will do good. You bring companies back to the US by offering them incentives, and not by going to economic war with foreign countries.
If China cashes in the over a trillion dollar debt the US owes to them, the US will go into another deep recession. What are you going to tell China if they ask for their money. Nope, we don't owe you anything. We are even.
He has absolutely no interest in foreign affairs at all. Is he going to turn a key, and poof interest and knowledge will appear?
He is the worse kind of politician. He is out there telling people what they want to hear. What they want to hear will not fly.
