Those who can do, those who can’t, sit around writing about it.
We need an index of the ratio of anti-Trump/pro-Trump articles posted on FR.
Just guessing here, but I think if someone puts one together they will find something that looks like this:
2015Oct - 3
2015Nov - 4
2015Dec - 5
2016Jan - 7
2016Feb - 10
Yep..... Let's keep electing professional politicians!
The simple fact is, not one person in the Republican primary other than Trump, has risked anything other than donor money. Not one has built a business, met a payroll, provided healthcare for employees, paid corporate income taxes, understood how regulations impact the economy, done business in a foreign country, understands the global economy, cultures and currency, or in short, contributed anything to society other than rhetoric, more government, more regulation and more spending. All of them, even Cruz. Talking is a lot different than doing.
Did Sidney finkelstein build a multi billion dollar fortune and an empire employing directly or indirectly tens of thousands of people?
Is Sidney’s accomplishments one if the business models studied at Wharton and Harvard?
How many books has Sidney Finkelstein written and sold?
Has Sidney raised 3 children to become mega executives to run the family business? With happy families and no drug or alcohol problems?
Just curious? Never heard of him, but he sure talks like he is a big smart player,
Checked Sydney’s curriculum vitae
Academic wonder all the way
Never opened a shoeshine stand much less made a payroll
Professor Finkelstein has never accomplished anything in his life in the business world yet he feels he can tell everyone else how to run their business. He is the epitome of what is wrong with business and government in this country. Nothing but an academician who deals with theory and when the theory fails just goes on to push the latest fad to get consulting dollars and grants. If he had to run a company to survive he would stare.
This is the kind of drivel you see written when somebody knows the guy they hate is about to be elected.
At this point reading the reaction to this article and others like it, not yours by the way, is like watching an drunk relative at a reunion embarrass the rest of the family. They’re family so there’s a reserve of regard, but they just aren’t seeing what is appalling the rest of us, namely a seriously psychologically flawed and cartoonish candidate marching to the nomination. And even the mildest question about his credentials and credibility sets them off into a rage.
Pray, tell us, Mr. Finkelstein...are YOU worth a billion dollars?
Sydney, are you jealous of his success, his money, or his cajones.
So words are more important than actions and using a person’s past behavior as the best predictor of that person’s future behavior is overrated?
Go hang yourself Sydney. You are a traitor to the truth.
And no, I’m not a Trump cheerleader.
It is becoming obvious that all of the mainstream media is being geared to help this country implode. Evil people.
I love that Trump is self funding his campaign. That is one of the big reasons I’m supporting him.
An article of surpassing irrelevance, containing unsubstantiable wishful thinking and the corrosive envy of the sidelined onlooker.
> “One of the most common is a tendency to see themselves and their companies as dominating their industry, regardless of what is happening around them. For example the co-CEOs of Research in Motion, the maker of the BlackBerry smartphone, failed to appreciate the rise of the iPhone, going so far as to laugh off Apple’s (AAPL) new product as a nonstarter because it didn’t have a ‘real’Â touch keyboard. “
Finkelstein is D grade intelligent, at best.
He spouts off without knowledge, but he acts like he has knowledge.
RIMM was propped up by GW Bush’s CIA to intercept messages in Canada where there was no law against government agencies reading private messages, especially in the fear aftermath of the War On Terror. All US federal contractors procuring smartphone equipment were sole sourced to RIMM resulting in an immediate user base of 3 million users, and then the marketing took it from there. So RIMM took off as somehow a spectacular phenomenon, when in fact it was just another CIA funded enterprise like Oracle and many many others.
RIMM’s blackberry demise was not so much the emergence of Apple as it was the result of the US federal government perfecting backdoors and getting a submissive DC court to rubber-stamp warrants for the invasive monitoring they sought.
Problems in judge shopping had ensued since, but who cares? It’s Obama’s deal now.
Were there American competitors of Blackberry at the time? Yes, there was a superior American made smart phone manufactured by Palm. But Palm’s email processing was subject to US law, thus was unsuitable for propping up by intelligence agencies.
RIMM had a good run and made Canadians fell for a time that they were somehow special. Poor Canadians, those American sonsofbitches did you in again.
Meanwhile, Finkelstein is going to belch at us about his favorite downers on America’s frontrunner.
Burrrpppp ............
Hey, Sidney! What’s in your wallet?
