As a businessman Trump made smart fiscal decisions. Obviously disqualified for government, where smart fiscal decisions are frowned upon.

The primary goal of a businesses is not to help American workers (democrats may disagree but not most republicans or conservatives). I’m pretty sure execs can even get sued by shareholders if they put workers ahead of profit and make a bad fiscal decision.

I’d bet Trump understands better than anyone else running “why” certain business decisions are smart. And is interested in changing policies and regulations so that decisions favoring American workers are the “smart” ones from a fiscal standpoint as well as for patriotic reasons.

True, and it is a citizens right to vote for leaders that will invoke protectionist policies including tariffs. All's fair. It is not a citizens duty to support government that puts foreign and international interest above their own.

I am sure corporations think prols having the right to vote really sucks.
