I don’t like the Rove/GOPe and they did not trick me. Don’t know where you got that idea, but it you certainly wasn’t from me. Donald Trump acts like a clown in public and his business record is less than stellar. I was willing to give his populist campaign a listen, but he did not deliver. If he wants to be a serious candidate, than he has to act like one. In his case, this would be more difficult because he has a history making promises and not delivering on them. He could prove his detractors wrong by committing his time and money to the Tea Party movement or its principles. I would like to be proven wrong on this because, despite, his clownish behavior, he does say somethings in which I agree.

So it's his money you like and not him. Whose the clown now?

Just received this and thought you needed to see it.

The percentage of each past president’s cabinet who had worked in the private business sector prior to their appointment to the cabinet.

You know what the private business sector is; a real-life business, not a government job. Here are the percentages.
T. Roosevelt.................... 38%

Taft................................ 40%

Wilson ........................... 52%

Harding........................... 49%

Coolidge......................... 48%

Hoover............................ 42%

F. Roosevelt..................... 50%

Truman........................... 50%

Eisenhower................ .... 57%

Kennedy......................... 30%

Johnson.......................... 47%

Nixon.............................. 53%

Ford................................ 42%

Carter............................. 32%

Reagan............................ 56%

GH Bush.......................... 51%

Clinton .......................... 39%

GW Bush........................ 55%

Obama............................. 8%

This helps to explain the incompetence of this administration: only 8% of them have ever worked in private business!

That’s right! Only eight percent-—the least, by far, of the
last 19 presidents! And these people are trying to tell our big corporations how to run their business?

How can the president of a major nation and society, the one
with the most successful economic system in world history, stand and talk about business when he’s never worked for one? Or about jobs when he has never really had one? And when it’s the same for 92% of his senior staff
and closest advisers? They’ve spent most of their time in academia,
government and/or non-profit jobs or as “community organizers.”
