Re: Russian official defends his account of Trump-Putin talks, saying U.S. accepted a
Trump had 35,000 employees. They and he all made a whole boatload of money. Success and longevity are the measures of leadership success in business. What do you use to measure Business Leadership success? I have a feeling you'll be breaking new wind if you actually answer this.
Let's see... What are good ways to see if a person is a leader?
Maybe it's LEADING a multi million dollar, international business very successfully for decades.
Maybe it's successfully LEADING the effort to gather 50 Arab and Muslim National Leaders meeting FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER to publicly oppose terror activities.
Maybe it's LEADING the effort to revamp the punitive tax and regulatory morass hindering business that has subsequently led to every major US stock index posting one record close after another since the election.
Maybe its LEADING a successful, winning a presidential campaign when everyone in the establishment said that he could not.
The results are not in yet if Trumps policies thus far have been good for the economy. So far the results seen can be attributed to the previous president. Though there is no denying that business were encouraged at first by Trump winning the election. That enthusiasm has been waning as Trump drags his feat. Wheres that tax reform? Hows that wall coming along? Deregulating things are not always a good thing.
And Trump made a fool of himself in the middle east. I wouldnt call that leadership, it was Trump being uninformed. Hell he could have just tweeted everyone over there and it would have been just as effective.
After the investigation into Trump and Russia we will talk later about how that campaign went. Right now it looks like Trump cheated. Of course Trump probably would have won the nomination anyways since the playing field was that bad. In fact both parties had such bad playing fields that it ended up with a match between Trump and Mrs. Clinton, both sucked balls.
But yea Trump is a leader, just a bad leader. Hell Trump makes the establishment look good. Who would thought that anyone could do that?
Out of curiosity, is your lock step allegiance to the propaganda of the establishment understood in your warped view of the world to be somehow rebellious against the establishment?
Sanctions against Iran? They were all dismissed. It's TOO LATE for calling them back again now. That ship sailed. THIS failure of leadership is also an example of leadership, but that was under a different, establishment, president.
I am not lock step with anyone. Thats part of being an individualist instead of partisan scum. More people need to think for themselves instead of joining collectives/political parties/religions/clubs/groups to parrot group thinking liberty destroying bias.
SO you do not want to sanction Iran, ok. Sanctions though are a step, not the end all solution. Along with sanctions a president needs to levy international leadership in order to make those sanctions do their job. The problem is that most presidents fail at that type of leadership, Obama certainly failed. Trump wont even go to the plate, he isnt even in uniform or anywhere near the field. Instead Trump is tweeting stupid comments that hurts himself as a leader, the office that he holds, and the US standing as a world leader.
Iran could be reeled in with real sanctions and a strong NATO presence. Buth that would take good leadership skills, which Trump doesnt have. Trump is used to being a dictator/monarch in his own business. In Trumps world he is the supreme leader who doesn't answer to anyone but himself. President Trump though answers to the people. A president is representative of the people, he is not a boss or a CEO, he works for us. And we can and will fire him. If Trump makes it to the next election cycle his campaign is going to be a tough one. You can bet that the Democrats will not run a campaign as bad as Hillary next time. I am hoping that we do not see a Democrat sweep. Probably will, but I would rather see a two party rule rather than a one party rule. When a single political party has too much power we end up with things like a living tax or party platforms being forced on everyone.
