Remind me of the last time we elected someone to that office with absolutely no government experience, will you?

Grant might fit that criterion although he did have an extensive military background. AFAIK, he never was elected to a government office. Maybe Eisenhower too. Both men, as military leaders had plenty of executive experience.

The military is part of the government. I didn’t say “legislative.”
