I hate the guy but I don't doubt his ability to amass wealth. He was definitely born on 3rd base and turned it into a HR.

His getting elected is more of an indictment of career politicians than it is any indication of him being fit to be president.

I still laugh about Republicans attacking President Clinton's ethics(and Hillary's) while staunchly supporting Trump. The guy is the most open scumbag we have ever had in office and acts like a schoolyard bully and people eat it up because it's directed at people they don't agree with.

The last 2 republican presidents have been an ebarassment.

No doubt but denying him as a business man is shortsighted and I think probably blinded by hate. I despise all politicians especially at the federal level. People get so caught up in their hate that can't see the good.

I'll stick with my droogs and a bit of the ole ultra violence.

We just can't trust those orange men.

It's true in reverse as well. The same people who defended Bill Clinton's lies and his affair with Monica have flipped to now say that is unacceptable behavior from Trump. That is partisan politics. People believe it's okay for "their side" to be corrupt, but not the other. Standards should be the same across the board. Wrong is wrong, no matter who it is doing wrong. But there is no consistency in DC.

The Clinton’s are the most corrupt family in the country and people love them

People actually support and listen to AOC .

There is consistency in DC.

They consistently screw the American people. Doesn't matter which party is in power. If we go to a three party system, it will only add a third choice for the American people to be screwed by.

The system itself isn't bad. It's the people in the system that have ruined it. Libertarians (in DC) right now...are nothing more than people who couldn't get their agendas pushed in one of the other parties. Party hopping to get what you want has become the norm in DC.

Somehow the turds keep floating to the top.

Maxine Waters has been elected to the House 15 times. If you're not familiar with Mad Max, you should look her up.

I had long thought Maxine and Hank Johnson (the guy who thought the island of Guam was in danger of tipping over if the US put too many naval personnel on the island) were the 2 dumbest people in the House, then along came AOC to challenge for the top position.

does stiffing vendors count as business acumen?

Donald Trump’s Business Plan Left a Trail of Unpaid Bills

does defrauding a charity count as business acumen?

Judge Says Trump Must Pay $2 Million Over Misuse Of Foundation Funds

admittedly i already dislike the guy, but the myth that he's a self-made, brilliant business tycoon is pretty easy to cut through.

Where did I say he was self made? I said the exact opposite. I think it's hilarious that you and others doubt his business ability. He's a freaking billionaire. Everyone of you would trade places with him in a second. I guess you're ok with your dem (and republican) politicians that go into office with normal middle-class wealth and come out multimillionaires.

Lol you picked those two words out of that whole post to defend. He’s unethical and a cheat. He’s driven business after business into the ground but was able to sell himself as a success because he scored a reality tv show where he fired people. His impressive ability is to dupe rubes into thinking he’s savvy about anything other than shady tax structuring and suing people that are mEaN tO hIM.

But you didn’t answer the question. Do stiffing vendors and defrauding charities count as business ability or nah?

LOL. He sucks as business man.

Everyone that files bankruptcy ends up stiffing vendors, it's how bankruptcy works. If he did anything illegal he would have been arrested and charged. Again, TDS is a real thing. You OK with your Hillary and her shenanigans?

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but 99.99% of all successful businesses and business owners are guilty of “shady tax dealings”. So that argument is a joke.

If you truly want to find some truth, instead of just cherry picking the bad press of a president that many hate. Read about all his successful business dealings. If you think him filling bankruptcies, cutting out on deals short term or defunding projects makes him a bad businessman then you are more confused on the subject then you probably want to realize.

I wonder what you would think of Trump if he wasn't president and in your "party." You would probably think he is a first rate P.O.S. as you did before he ran...

oh its not limited to his many, many bankruptcies, his campaign is also stiffing a handful of cities that are requesting reimbursement for proving security for his presidential rallies. its not just "a thing that happens", its how he conducts business. and it sucks.

Unpaid bills pile up in Trump rallies’ wake

the trump org has been documented inflating their earnings for at least a decade now, no way to know trumps actual net worth because he won't release his tax returns.

Trump's net worth is far less than he claims, Trump Organization revenue suggests

its funny how all criticism of trumps real-time transgressions are summarily dismissed as TDS, but you guys are still on about Hillary, who hasn't been relevant for 3 years now lol. would that be HDS?

you won't read this, but i'm going to leave this here anway. if you did, i would challenge you to rebuke any part of it. Trump Engaged in Suspect Tax Schemes as He Reaped Riches From His Father

and what you may not want to realize is how far we've sunk when we conflate cheating for being the smartest person the the room. i still happen to think we're collectively better than that.

You have no idea what I think about him now, other than he isn’t a bad businessman. To say he is shows ignorance on the subject and a blindness to the truth.

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Trump’s greatest con, besides getting a bunch of people to somehow nominate him in the first place, is convincing people he’s some kind of brilliant businessman and that that gives him any skill whatsoever necessarily to steer a massive administrative state. He’s a reality TV host and a reality TV president.

I clicked it but it wouldn’t let me read it because I’m not a subscriber. Nor will I ever subscribe to them.

Linking N.Y. Times articles has zero stance though. They hate him and have always pushed the Democrat agenda.

I could link Fox articles against Billary and Obama but that wouldn’tbe useful either.

I would have voted for The Tiger King over Hillary...or Bernie for that matter.

I would have voted for a lint tray before any of those candidates but those brainwashed into a party somehow are able to make these evil people into their champions and support them blindly. It is fascinating as it is also probably the downfall of our country.
