You are now running off on a tangent. The government is very much a business, and its product line is the security and safety of its citizens. Not cradle to grave welfare, not single payer health care, not a whole bunch of things that the government has now gotten involved in because people don’t actually know or understand the role of government and they vote ideology instead of candidate qualifications.
A businesses job is to grow and make lots of money. I want to opposite from government
Again, no. A business’ job is to provide its product or service to the customer at the most reasonable price. There is no obligation for a business to grow; it will do so only if its leadership wants it to grow.
In my experience as a government employee, regardless of a person’s expertise, most people are encouraged to learn some kind of business process—whether it is acquisition processes or lean Six Sigma. If the government is not a business, then why are we government employees required to learn business processes?
I guess I don’t understand why people who are supposed to embrace the concept of a limited federal government have abandoned that for Trump in the belief that a growing federal government will work if he’s running it just because he’s had success in business. That’s along the lines of the left believing that the reason socialism hasn’t really worked as promised is because the wrong people have been in charge of it
Again, you are going off on a tangent and missing the salient point. I’m going to assume that this is, in part, because you really do not understand business or how businesses operate. The Constitution mandates a very limited number of duties from the president. Consistent with his role as chief executive officer of the country, he is required to submit a budget, manage a staff, command the military forces, negotiate treaties, lead the Congress in implementing his vision, etc. It is his role to have the large view of what is going on in the country. There is not a single executive function of the President that is outside of Trump’s executive experience and skill set. As a successful business executive, he already does many of the same functions that the Constitution mandates from the president.
Contrast that to Cruz, who is trained as a lawyer, not a businessman, and has scarcely any experience even as a lawyer. He has never led a company. He has never hired people. He has never developed a budget for a large organization. He has not shown that he actually can lead people or get them to follow a vision. He does not have the empathy for ordinary people trying to live their lives within the burdensome regulatory environment that politician lawyers like him have created for people, since he has never been an ordinary citizen. His skills and experience are quite similar to those of Obama when he was first elected—and how has this Obama presidency worked out, hmm? From all accounts, he shares another Obama trait—he refuses to negotiate, regardless of the long term damage such refusal does. How is he supposed to work with Congress if he comes across as a rigid ideologue who refuses to negotiate? How does an inexperienced lawyer step into an executive position and hope to do the job?
First, you’re confusing managing with governing and assuming they’re the same. They’re not. “And “governing” a business is not the same as “governing” a Constitutional Republic.” And you’re also mistakenly assuming a business contract and plan are the same as the US Constitution. Again, they are not.
And yes, the purpose of a business is to grow and make money. To do that, they provide a service people want. No growth or revenue the business fails.

Where to begin? Let me help you:
How about with a cogent explanation of why a man with decades of executive experience is not qualified to assume the office of the country's top executive, but a man with almost no work experience in any capacity, much less executive experience, *is* qualified?
I will be blunt: your responses so far do not indicate that you have any understanding of how either the government or businesses function.
