Why people regard Trump as good businessman? Bunch of his shit went bankrupt because he's so "excellent". Same as with Elon. Everyone treats him as genius. He's a moron who hires actual smart people and then take credit for their work. And everything is always ultra late, over budget or never materialized. And now these two bozos work together to "fix" US government that has been functioning perfectly well for 300+ years.

Well, we might have a very different opinion of "perfectly well" but otherwise I agree.

I'd say the past 40 years have been set up to fail, but I don't trust the party of Reagan to fix the mess he started.

Because of The Apprentice.

Fine tooth comb lmao.

I remember listening to a news podcast and I don't recall if it was an idea of the GOP, heritage, musk, bolsonaro (who they're taking cues from) but one idea was fire all employees with an even number ID. Easy way to get half the staff. I'm still expecting that kind of "fine tooth comb" because so far they're just going after the easy starting point: asking people to resign and probationary workers.

So Trump created a tv show as an ad to establish an image as a businessman. I wonder if that’s all they know.

Could they have somehow missed or ignored decades of news headlines and only paid attention to TV? And thought “reality TV” was reality?

It has been said a million times, and it will be said again.
You -clap- voted -clap- for -clap- this!

Why would he think that in 2024 when that was literally what he ran on in 2016 and look how that worked out
