Well you must not have been paying attention to the last episode, because they made it pretty clear she's lost all objectivity on being good or evil. Her view now is that whatever it takes to get on the Iron Throne is justified, as it's her right:

"Do you believe we're here for a reason, Lord Varys? I'm here to free the world from tyrants. That is my destiny, and I will serve it no matter the cost." -Daenerys

"I served tyrants most of my life. They all talk about destiny." -Varys


And who said they'd be giving her an easy way out? She may avoid having to massacre thousands of innocents, but the sooner she gets to the throne the sooner she just becomes the next despot/Cersei, paranoid someone better suited (Jon) for the role is about to take it from her, as they've already shown the beginnings of.

Varys enabled Aerys, Robert and Joffrey for years. In the book, he's a Targ loyalist. Here, he claims to serve the best for the realm. If you believe Dany's judgement about what's best is misconceived, then at least admit Varys is suffering from the same delusions of grandeur.

Also, people already know more or less for a fact your speculation about what Jaime and Jon are destined/going to do is wrong, so don't even try to see any symbolism or foreshadowing in Ghost, the Cersei prophecy etc.
