We are not voting on their performance in the business world.

We are voting on their maturity, their grasp of the issues, and their ability to stay calm under fire.

Whose finger do you want on the nuclear button?

Business experience is very relevant - running the Executive Branch is not a whole lot different than running a large organization. The leader sets broad policies, then has lower level managers (whom he/she picks) implement them well. Someone who can't do that well isn't going to be a good President, regardless of their maturity.

Regarding calm under fire and fingers on the nuclear button: You sound like those criticizing Reagan. Look, Donald Trump has spent his whole life BUILDING things - as in, being creative. The exact opposite of that is nuclear destruction, where you not only destroy people and things, but you can't then go in and use the same land because it is poisoned. He'll be tough, and he'll use his demeanor to intimidate foreign leaders where necessary - it is part of a strategy; this is a guy who thinks in terms of success over decades, not just the next news cycle.

She was fired over her bungling which has destroyed HP to this day.

His casinos may have reorganized but he knows how to manage companies in debt.

Just why do you think the US military/industrial complex goes into sovereign foreign nations and starts wars of destruction?

It’s so the money-hungry guys like Trump and the owners of Haliburton, etc., can then go in and rebuild them,making huge profits.

There are so many innocents on here supporting Trump.

He wants to be president so that he can become the Richest Man in the World...at the expense of American taxpayers.

You must all be under 30 years of age.
