There’s a reason we don’t let brand new pilots in the left seat of passenger jets. They might look like they know how to fly, but really they only know how to crash. And there’s a reason that if Donald Trump is elected president, he will destroy America’s foundation.
The Ig Nobel Prize is given to those who make earth-shattering observations which on their face are hilariously funny, but deeply true just the same. Justin Kruger and David Dunning won theirs in 2000 for a paper entitled “Unskilled and unaware of it: How difficulties in recognizing one’s own incompetence lead to inflated self-assessements.” The entire paper can be summed up with this one graph:

It doesn’t matter if his term is marked with peerless efficiency or (more likely) unsurpassed fecklessness. He doesn’t know enough about ends and means to know how incompetent he is at both. Village Voice reporter Wayne Barrett wrote this about Trump in 1979:
Trump’s problem is not so much what he’s done, but how he’s done it. I decided at the start that I wanted to profile him by describing his deals — not his lifestyle or his personality. After getting to know him, I realized that his deals are his life. He once told me: “I won’t make a deal just to make a profit. It has to have flair.” Another Manhattan developer said it differently: “Trump won’t do a deal unless there’s something extra — a kind of moral larceny — in it. He’s not satisfied with a profit. He has to take something more. Otherwise, there’s no thrill.”
The presidency is Trump’s ultimate deal. Politics has run in the Trump family for a century. Spreading the cash around to acquire political favors is a Trump mainstay–it was for dad Fred and it is for Donald. The apple has not fallen far from the
Pulitzer Prize-winning writer David Cay Johnston and investigative columnist Wayne Barrett composed an unapproved 1992 history on Donald Trump where they asserted the business head honcho and his organizations worked together in New York and Philadelphia families connected to the Mafia. Composed wrongdoing aside, do we truly need a U.S. president who has facilitated not one, but rather two WrestleMania 's? Donald Trump has even effectively partaken in World Wrestling Entertainment, occasions with proprietor Vince McMahon. Might anyone be able to see Jimmy Carter does likewise? He has a background marked by settling on choices indiscriminately without administering to the outcomes that take after the decision that he has made, fundamentally on account of his indiscreet nature. There 's an adage that "a president is just on a par with his counsels." But who might, and could, exhort Donald Trump? All things considered, this is the man whose catchphrase is "You 're discharged!" Having run his own domain for almost 40 years, Donald Trump is accustomed to doing however he sees fit making major decisions. He doesn 't listen to anybody by any stretch of the imagination, he 's surely not listening to any individual who was on his crusade group who may have been instructing him to tone down his talk. So how might he listen to a multitude of counsels who were attempting to give him exhortation on local and outside arrangement, the military and the economy? He has a longing for the most
Throughout Donald's life success was not easy for him or his businesses. The Trump organization revealed that it was 5$ billion in debt in 1990, with as much as 1$ billion spent by Donald Personally. With all the casinos, hotels, and cars Trump had to create a bailout system that would allow him to take out two to three mortgages on most of properties. Unsurprisingly Donald Trump filed for bankruptcy four times. Although he was in the hole, he was able to get himself out and with that I think that he wouldn't have been able to make any crucial business decisions without the help of many bankers and lawyers but also the use of a free enterprise system.
“Make America Great Again,” the overarching theme of Presidential Candidate Donald Trump’s campaign brings to light the blunt arrogance of our beloved Donald J. Trump. Trump: a billionaire businessman, entrepreneur, and part time reality TV monkey, started his presidential run as of June 2015. He has, since his declaration of his run, been the frontrunner for the GOP Poll breaking out above the other candidates of Jeb Bush, Ben Carson, Ted Cruz and many others by consistent double digits. His run so far has been filled with all things Americans lovingly refer to as in its entirety, Donald Trump: arrogance, controversial pursuits, and lack of explanation to anything he has planned. Though Trump himself has decades of experience with economics,
Donald John Trump is currently one of the candidates for the Republican nomination for the President of the United States in the 2016 election. He is having no trouble winning numerous state caucuses and is currently the leading candidate with the most delegates among his republican peers. In the media, he is a candidate that seems to have the most air time compared to all of his contenders; his saturated exposure can be considered one of the major contributor to his rising popularity. Trump delivers simple but effective rhetoric about tax cuts for the rich as well as the poor, anti-free trade, tough immigration reform, Nationalism, and other topics that naturally draw in support from the average right-winged conservative individual.

As the owner of a ten billion dollar empire, Trump has established a firm reality that he knows how to make money. He has also shown that he has the leadership capabilities to head a conglomerate with thousands of employees under his wing, and has shown to the people that he can handle this responsibility reliably. Some may argue that Trump has been unsuccessful in the past, as he declared corporate bankruptcy four times over his long and storied career (O'Connor). However, past instances of failure have not been able to stifle him in his pursuit of riches. Many are aware of the fact that some of the country’s greatest presidents have a failed business under their belt. The fact that Trump was able to pick up the pieces of his business after bankruptcy and reinvent his company time and again indicates that he should be applauded rather than

The legacy of Trump is nearly predetermined because of the theory of political time. Constitutional governance may currently be stretching, but it is not vulnerable. By default, he is a better president than individuals such as Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan, and Herbert Hoover. While many political commentators argue Trump's "presidency is a failure… [because] his moral character and self-serving leadership" (The Gazette), for this exact same reason, his presidency has accomplishments. Using rhetoric, "the most influential [tool]...

Trump may be known for his wealth but many aspects has shown that he is definitely bad in business. As president, being good in business is one of the key aspects to succeed, because you have to handle the whole nation’s financial matters.

Donald Trump was running a foundation that collected money for research on breast cancer. Astonishingly, he used around $25,000 from the collection to purchase a portrait of himself, painted on the spot by a speed painter. The portrait is now on a wall of one of his golf course buildings. Donald Trump also scammed the Charles Evans Foundation. This foundation was collecting money and donated a large amount of $1 million.
