Yes and before he was elected as such in that state he was what?
I also remember a man who was a very good general in WW2. Also one who was a PT boat Commander.
None of those experiences is comparable to Trump’s.
Donald Trump is NOT an up-by-his-bootstraps guy. His sister is a Federal Judge in New Jersey. I don’t deny that he has been very successful, and I hear he’s very lovely in real life. But, I don’t think he’s a serious minded person, except in terms of making money, I don’t think he’s a reliable conservative, although he may hold conservative views on some subjects, I don’t think he’s thought through the issues of the day in any sober minded manner.
I see him as yet another vanity candidate, akin to Ben Carson, and Fiorna too who couldn’t win the Senate (governorship?, I forget which office she ran for).
Like I said yesterday all Trump is doing right now is sucking up the air from what is really a good group of candidates.
I understand that people are liking him because he is shouting some truths from the rooftops, but I’m sure that in his heart-of-hearts he’s committed to the status quo, as much as any Bush or Clinton.
The Clintons are of course crooks, which the Bushes and Trumps are not, so they are worse that the others by far.
