Sorry, but this is not a positive attribute. There is a certain set of skills everyone needs to do their jobs, and if one choses politician as their job, the need political skills.
Name one other profession that you would not want the person practicing said profession, to have a high level of skills in that profession.
Quote:- He has real life business experience
Well, if governing a country was anything like running a business, you might have a point.
And I don't even need to go into Trumps lousy business practices, his multiple bankruptcies, his over 3000 lawsuits against him, etc.
Quote:- USA first, Pro USA attitude over all, Military, rework foreign trade deals and other policies to better help business in the USA.
Except when it comes to having all Trump clothing lines made in China, right?
Quote:- His stance on immigration is also popular among conservatives, deport illegals, keep people from terrorist hot spots out.
Good thing the US didn't have such policies in place when those conservatives grandparents came to the US.
Quote:- Pro Tax cut
The countries with among the highest tax rates, have the happiest, most productive populations.
Denmark, by every measurement, has the happiest people in the world. They have a 60.2% tax rate, and hardly anyone complains.
Other Northern european countries are similar.
The US had it's most productive period, and highest level of upward mobility, when our tax rate was quite a bit higher than it is now.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
