“Can’t run a campaign, can’t run a country.”
Can’t win popular support through the vote, can’t expect to be president.
But that would eliminate Cruz, so that’s a phrase that will never be heard from the Cruz Clan.
“Can’t run a campaign, can’t run a country,” is not connected. Barak Obama certainly knew how to run a campaign, the Clintons know how to run campaigns. Every terrible politician of the last 100 years, certainly knew how to run a campaign. They were good politicians and nothing else!
This campaign business as it is set up now, with its weird rules, games, political correctness, and 50 sets of arcane rules and regulations, is not what the founding fathers envisioned.
What they envisioned is successful citizens from various walks of life taking time out of their busy lives to run for office and serve their fellow citizens in overseeing the running of this country for a few years. They never expected a lot of funny business to be nominated and elected, and a professional class of life-long politicians who understood nothing about running a country, but who only understood those weird and strange rules about how to get nominated and elected, and get rich and powerful at the govt trough.
The fact that Donald Trump does not understand those weird rules, and is a babe in the woods because he does know how how to run things in the real world is to his credit. He did not spend his life dealing with these unreal things!
Let us hope and pray that in the future, men and women like Donald Trump can somehow navigate through all this ridiculous nonsense put into place by the professional political aristocracy who know nothing about actually running a country for the real benefit of the people can be elected, destroy this horrible system as it stands now, so that the American people have a real voice, that campaigns, nominations, and elections are a straightforward, and honest business, by and for an honorable and free people, and so that the right kind of people, natural born Americans, born in the good old USA, people such as Donald Trump who have triumphed in the business world, are the people who are elected to office!
