In a nutshell, yes.

And he may be even better than just “ok”.

Here’s the way I see it. We constantly talk about throwing out the career politicians and putting in people with real conservative conviction.

Well, here is a chance to do that. If we start complaining that he isn’t ENOUGH of a politician we’re going to have to call ourselves hypocrites.

Compared to a “normal” lifelong politician or lawyer running for office he’s not what we are used to seeing.

The knee-jerk reaction is to be uncomfortable.

The long term reasoning though should be, “GOOD!” We have an option that isn’t establishment.

There is no reason that politicians have to be from the political class. That is a lie that we have come to believe in recent generations. There is no special quality of leadership that “trained” politicians have. Leaders are leaders no matter what their walk in life. A president has to be a leader of men and have wisdom to choose the right people and right ideas when presented to him.

He does NOT have to be a career politician.
