I find it ironic that most demonrat politicians have never worked in the private sector and are clueless about small business. Most are career politicians with only big government ideologies. Look at Ovommit and Slo Joe, neither one knows about the private sector since they are crooked career leftist politicians.
In general, we prefer the right people for the right jobs. We like doctors to handle our surgeries for instance not janitors. We like CPAs to handle our taxes not short-order cooks. By the same token we like experienced politicians to handle our policies and we like them to have legal backgrounds because the government is after all a system of laws.
The idea that a businessman is better qualified is utter nonsense. First of all, a "businessman" can mean anything from a CEO of a major corporation to a dog walker, a baby sitter or even a drug dealer. It's all business.
I co-founded three businesses myself. 'Not all that difficult.
This idiot preference for the businessman seems to revolve around the idea of managing budgets. To borrow a term from the less PC days of yore - that's women's work. I always let my stay-at-home wife manage the household budget which seems to be a very common arrangement. And even that was the easy part of her day. In short, budgets are common place and most people know how to do it.
The REAL challenge of running a government is resolving conflicts, which is infinitely more difficult than balancing a budget. Indeed, comparing the capacity of a businessman to the demands of national politics is like suggesting a soldier is good enough for mission impossible because he keeps his boots shiny.
Trump isn't even a good businessman... First of all, his experience is primarily based on the buying and selling of property. He has no experience in innovation or building a business from the ground up like Elon Musk or Bill Gates. His experience is more in line with the Kardashians and the capital ventures they can afford from inheriting multi-million dollar fortunes from daddy.
Secondly, he has lost an extraordinary fortune to his failures and is currently millions of dollars in debt. He doesn't want to expose his tax records because that would tell us the true story. It was leaked that he only spent $750 dollars in taxes in recent years and the only way to explain that is to point out his loses, which he was able to write off.
I'm still amazed at how you folks got so brainwashed into hating Clinton for things she never did that you would vote for a business failure that depends on borrowed money and scams to retain his opulent facade.
