a good example of a mainstream Republican who would make a great president is MA Governor Charlie Baker, who lost his race for governor in 2010, then won in a nail-biter in 2014 by 40 thousand votes out of 2 million cast, proving he can carry blue states in a presidential election and win in a landslide. on election night 2014, he graciously did not give a victory speech, waiting until the next morning when his opponent congratulated him
he picked a Democrat Chief Of Staff in Steve Kadish...a MAGA Republican wouldn't do that!
