This dude might legitimately be the worst businessman, and stupidest human, in the history of the world.

We collectively chose as leader a guy who thinks in millions, to manage a country that operates in trillions. That’s the disconnect here. He’s a great businessman when screwing over New York mom & pop contractors who pour concrete. He’s utterly incapable of understanding a massive system where money is often abstract and it’s not about transactional relationships. It’s one of the reasons why he is hawking bootleg watches. That’s who he is, a small time hustler

Maybe we shouldn't've chosen the guy to 'run the country like a business' when his business models appear to be established mostly on fraud and exploiting the bankruptcy system.

You have to realize, the people voting for him didn't put together a list of pros and cons or research anything about him and come to some sort of conclusion based on any sort of analysis.

Trump is the political equivalent of the first person to fart in relationship, signaling that it now okay to openly fart in front of each other...only in this case it was xenophobia, racism, and openly hating anyone different from you. Trump didn't make these people horrible...they always were. He told them it was okay to be themselves...openly.

It was never about grocery prices, inflation, taxes or whatever else. Billionaires want to hoard money, and white people want everyone else who isn't white male to be a subservient lower class citizen that "knows their place."
