“His ego permits him to – where a lot of these other presidents don’t – surround himself with really good people,” Icahn told Reuters. “Not just me, but others.”
Icahn, to Reuters, said one of Trump’s characteristics that sets him apart from the other candidates, and makes him the best man for the White House job, is his willingness and skill to hand pick excellent advisers with reputations as the best of the best.
“He needs as many good people as he can get in this environment today,” Icahn said. “We certainly don’t see that in many of these presidents.”
Like Trump, Icahn is known for his outspoken views and has similar roots in New York City.
“I want to speak out now because, I know this may sound corny but I grew up in the streets of Queens,” Icahn said in his video. “I love this country and I feel so strongly abut the dysfunction that is going on both in Washington and the boardrooms of corporate America.”
Icahn said one problem facing the country is the carried interest loophole, which allows earnings of hedge-fund managers and other private-equity firms to be taxed at a lower rate than normal income. Trump said he wants to eliminate the tax break.
“People on Wall Street, they’re good friends of mine,” Icahn said. “I like them. But not having to pay full taxes on money that you’re earning is an absurdity.”

LOL. Morning answer was interesting this morning. Larry Elder defended Trumps tax plan while Brian Whitman slammed it. Shapiro off of Jewish holiday.
Trump knows that you can’t run anything successfully without good people. Micromanagement is not successful. Obama put his campaigners and donors in positions they had no business being in.
Trump Bump
GASP! You mean no Caroline Kennedy as ambassador to Japan under a Trump presidency?
Ping
And no being an LGBTQ a top qualification.
I think all that goes without sayin....
Doesn't sound corny to me, Carl...I feel the EXACT same way.
We want our country back. Trump is the ONLY one with the guts, the EXPERIENCE and the people to do just that.
I agree - what has been done to this country and we the people is a travesty.
Only Trump has what it takes to lead us out of this mess. I like his ego because he doesn’t want to see HIS country trashed. And for whatever reason he connects with the now somewhat noisy majority. I do think he feels our pain, unlike Clinton The Liar.
We need a steam roller like Trump to go into Washington, slap down the RINOs and clean up the mess that Omuslim has made that has almost destroyed the greatest country in the world.
Been out of the loop. What’s in the plan? Do you a quick synopsis?
Brings to mind channel surfing yesterday and landed on Hanoi Jane Fonda, traitor and supporter of our enemies (like John F'n Kerry) and she was asked what she thought about Hilliary.
She said, Oh I like Hillary!
Then she was asked about Fiorina and she says I don't like her she lies.
Talk about a brain that has been taken over and destroyed by leftist ideals.

Yelp straight forward. Anyone arguing against it?
Everything I have heard is good. But he still needs to get some good tax people to “score” it (i.e. test it to see what kind of results it will provide). He has also said he’s going to go through the government and get rid of all the fat.
I will vote for anybody but Trump. 66% of conservatives agree.

Jan 2017 headline “look at that face. Oye bring her home.”
