Yeah I even read some of them...Nice work from his well paid staffers, but there is no track record of his ever caring about these issues before.

This is a huge risk you take when you support a nonpolitical outsider. We jumped that shark once before in my lifetime when Ross Perot shook up a election. We managed to jump back and the mistake was never made.

While I like trump personally, and most all of the business side information I have come across is respectable, a president has to run a government the size of the US, enact as best he can his campaign promises and at the same time lead in foreign policy, domestic policy, and the social compact of a country of cats who don’t lead or follow easily.

This requires a in depth working knowledge of government and IMO a understanding of our founding in a definitive way where you are not learning but teaching.

I just don’t see any of that.

What I see is that his immigration policy statements have bought him a seat at the big game. But I don’t see anything else of note..other than he’s purportedly a nice guy.

In depth?

You mean lobbyists bribing lawmakers and congressional leadership using committee assignments or threats in order to get legislation passed? What's magical about that?

Trump probably understands government more than others just from the other side. He's had to deal with all the regulations & bureaucracy on a daily basis. I'm willing to bet he's been to more foreign countries and interacted with more than others on stage. He is definitely the only candidate with the financial creds to get us out of this hole.

I don't see how being a governor or even a senator provides the experience to run a country. If anything, they're just more enmeshed in big government solutions.
