TRUMP IN SCOTLAND: PERFECT TIMING FOR A BUSINESS TRIP TO THE UK
The Hill
On the day the British people voted to leave the EU, the Republican Party’s presumptive nominee for president took a business trip to Scotland.
The idea that the president should be experienced in business is as old as America. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and James Monroe were all farmer/planters. Abraham Lincoln started a general store…
The Constitution requires that the president be a “Citizen.” When our country was founded, the term “citizen”… meant a “townsman,” a person without rank or noble birth who had to work a trade or a business for a living. The ideal American president, in other words, is someone with an honest job who sees the public fisc as a burden to manage and not as money to spend.
It is a good thing for a presidential candidate to have a business… Someone who has never created a job, never met a payroll, and never built anything must bear a heavy burden of proof to convince citizens that she should run the economy.
Who is more likely to be a corrupt puppet of special interests, a business leader who takes time from running for president to reopen a golf course in Scotland, or a politician who received millions of dollars from banks, corporations and lobbyists for doing — as her supporters keep telling us — absolutely nothing at all to earn it?
Every step Trump takes in Scotland…is a reminder that he is a practical businessman who understands the economy, that he is too rich to be bought for favors, and that the world knows he puts America first. He is exactly the president we need.
What has Obama created as a community organizer in Chicago, Illinois?
What has crooked HRC created as a leech on the government teat?
