First, that has nothing to do with my post, and how stupid Trump’s remark was, zero.
As for your list, Trump didn’t command American forces in it’s two biggest wars, and Trump wasn’t in politics and Secretary of War like Taft who was the U.S. Solicitor General, judge, Governor-General of the Philippines, and other offices, ditto Hoover.
As far as George Washington, as you dare compare this real estate/TV personality huckster with Washington and the other great men of American history.
Washington was a lifelong politician, who lost his first election in 1755, but was elected in 1757, and he held elective office for about 25 years, spread out over 42 years of his life.
Trumps remark to a man who was his Governor, has been elected Mayor, and into the state Assembly, and the state Senate, that he couldn’t be elected a dog catcher, is stupid.
You need to calm down. I was responding to your comment about elective office. I was not comparing anyone to anyone. However, Pataki is for gay marriage, so I don’t care what Trump says about him, and I don’t care how what offices he has held.
