I was thinking about the naive notion that what America needed was "to be run more like a business", a concept that I fundamentally disagree with. But supposing it was true, are we seeing the 45 administration running the country more like a business?
Let's say a really, really rich guy buys out a really, really, REALLY BIG company... would his first move be to fire all the upper and middle management folks and replace them with inexperienced ideologues and sycophants? And to radically change the product lines to untested new items while cutting the budgets to all of the departments? And to ignore looming market forces that are threatening to swap the whole enterprise?
No.
45 is an insane narcissist and almost 1/4 of U.S. voters can't see that. Nearly half of all voters chose to look the other way.
The founders did not anticipate this scenario.
