to me it is a “ruling elite†argument that only those in government can prove themselves and do the job
You’ve stated the perfect observation, that corruption in the political realm is endemic to success, which completly invalidates the political model itself-—in theory...
In a perfect world, your concern is correct; if I were being held at gunpoint and forced to reveal who I would like to see in the presidency, I would say Trump, for the very reasons you’ve put forth...but when it comes time for my state’s primary (way down the road,so it’s moot) I wouldn’t vote for him, because he can’t win agaisnt the party I oppose; and to do otherwise, would be counterproductive to the political process that we have, the only one we are ever going to have...
a sad situation, really...
Wow, well I see our chances against the Dems differently - I see Trump as the one to skewer whoever the Dems prop up. I’’m very concerned about Cruz’s ability to beat Hillary or Sanders. I think Rubio would be a disaster.
One big reason I’m for Trump is not only do I think he’d skewer the Dems, I’d love to see it, especially Trump vs. Hillary - I think he’d beat he like a drum. Do my heart good.
