Trump has said that repeatedly that he is motivated by profits in his decisions. He said so in the first debate. He is NOT opposed to sucking from the gubmint teat if that means it profits him. So, any honest observer must ask — what kind of profit is he scheming now? Don’t tell me that a 75 year old life-long profit-oriented businessman, all of a sudden, is doing this “for the country”.
Tis assumes that the other candidates are not in it for profit for themselves. That is really naïve!
Just look at what politicians are worth when they get to DC and then look at what they are worth a few years later. They are or seem to be in it for the money but Trump does not need that.
Tomorrow you'll be telling Trump, "You didn't build that!!!!"
Give me the business man. Politicians are done.
The goal of any contract is to be mutually beneficial to each party. What is your problem with a "profit-oriented businessman?" Do you think Dan Price, the CEO of Gravity Payments, is a fool or a hero for increasing all of his employee's salaries to $70,000 no matter their job description? Businessmen have to be profit-oriented or they will be out of business quick-time. Why would anyone want to have anything to do with a business that could not make a profit and force itself out of business?
Donald Trump is smart enough to know that in "doing this for the country" he is also doing it for himself. That is the most important quality for a leader to have. I am smart enough to know that, if given a chance Trump will "Make America Great Again" and in doing so, will float all of our boats.
