Probably Bad. This guy is a libertarian extremist with lots of strange ideas.

Idiocracy light, I truely hope he's an actor and just acted nuts to get elected.

Edit: Brought chainsaw om campaign trail to "slash government funding" and deregulate safety standards are my two favorites.

I had the same hope back in 2018 when Bolsonaro was elected in Brazil. Maybe this guy is just pretending to be insane and will be more reasonable once he's president. I know better now.
