2. Trump is an egomaniac and also an idiot, while being an authoritarian, too. See recent reports re: activities of ICE, deployments/threats to deploy the national guard, etc. Whatever he may have done re: Israel and Gaza doesn't outweigh the fact that he causes more conflict than peace.
3. Machado seems a good enough choice. Actual credentialed person for that sort of thing. Right decision.
