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.

Please provide your evidence that Cruz does not understand how regulations impact the economy and does not understand the global economy, cultures and currency.

Trumps business experience is a non-starter for leading the most powerful and richest country in the world. If that was the case then we should elect one of the CEO’s of the large banks. Nobody know dollars better than them. They make payroll, pay for health care, knows how to manage debt, knows how to get rid of debt than them!

No, not a good idea is it. Just because he is a business man does not make him a good prez.

You could add; No other candidate has been able to get the media to pay for their campaign.

Only Trump has been able to do that.

Trump is the only candidate seriously talking about slashing the federal bureaucracy. Since the LBJ administration the federal bureaucracy has been growing under both Democrat and GOP presidents. Over 100 new federal agencies were created just to support Obamacare. Over the past 30 years the revolution in information technology (PC’s, internet) allowed private industry to dramatically increase productivity while reducing management overhead. Meanwhile the federal bureaucracy has become bloated, increasingly inefficient, and politicized.

The Clinton administration stuffed the professional bureaucracy with political ideologues and Obama has done the same. George W. Bush did not lift a finger to week the political operatives out of the bureaucracy, much less slash the bloat.

Downsizing the government bureaucracy is essential to restoring freedom in this nation. Why aren’t the other candidates talking seriously about a major reduction in federal government headcount? Only a businessman would understand.
