A lot of people that work in intense positions are sociopaths to varying degrees, such as firemen and suregons. I don't think Donald Trump is fir for president, but I don't think being a sociopath necesarily has anything to do with it.

Since when have any fire fighters been sociopaths?

Statistically, people that work in intense and stressful jobs, such as firemen and surgeons, are more likely to be sociopaths. You are the one assigning a negative meaning to that, perhaps because the only thing we hear about sociopaths in media are ruthless killers et. al. And that is part of the problem. A lot of people don't really know what a socipath is. It doesn't mean you are a horrible person. A lot of sociopaths are good and productive members of society, and chances are, you are related to one or more sociopaths.
