“Why don’t we approach running America like you would running a business?’”
It’s SUPPOSED to be run that way anyway! Why isn’t it?
The US Constitution, which governs the laws on how this country is run, is a legal document not a business document. The country is supposed to be run as a Constitutional Republic not a business.
” It’s SUPPOSED to be run that way anyway! Why isn’t it?”
Because we the voters (the bosses) have given free rein to our employees (the politicians) to do as they please.

Not really. American businesses are run from “unbalanced powers” positions. From the CEO, who tells the Board his “vision” and they rubber stamp it, then “sell it” to the shareholders once a year.
I think Trump is going to be frustrated, often.
In the days right after the founding of our country, the Representatives elected were to be land holders. They were to serve their two years, and return to their land/businesses and let someone else take over the job of representation. but....it morphed into a full time job with a lot of perks; now we have a ruling class because we’ve gotten away from the initial principles under which we were governed as a people.
You’re right, this gets us back to our roots; this is not a full time job in which you make tons of money and garner influence; this job is to lead people in the best way possible, according to the principles set down in the Constitution, then retire back to your chosen profession.
