Not liking his anti-2A stances is my biggest issue with him, because he also clearly see the State as being the only valid entity to enact violence, which is great if Nazis and white supremacist and (proud) racists and theocrats aren't allowed in your government, and not great when that isn't the case (as with the US).
That said, I think he'd be better as POTUS than as a state governor, precisely because his power to enact direct, low-level policy is much more limited, and in the end he's far better than 70%+ of the other potential candidates out there.
