Presidential candidates used to "balance the ticket" ideologically.

Trump messes with Republican heads and there sure are a lot of messed up Republicans out there (Glenn Beck and a guest talked on the electronic radio machine "hypothetically" of assassinating Trump were he to turn out to be a Trumpist president. A punch, Beck, not a whack job, Jeezus, be reasonable. (Beck has been suspended from further hypothesizing on the electronic radio machine.))
