Herman Cain's View of Trump

[longknife]

This is actually on OpEd on CanadaFreePress, a website Lefties seem to hate. It makes a lot of sense and I will just post one small part of it.



Trump showed at RNC he’s approaching the presidency like a smart CEO



Trump is clearly putting together his team and contemplating the roles he needs his key people to play. He’s also setting the goals, and making sure his team will have what it takes to accomplish them.



I know his presidency will not be like Reagan’s or those of other presidents we all revered. It will be unlike any we’ve seen. But that is not a bad thing. The times are different and the nation’s needs are different. A man like Donald Trump is just the man for the challenges we face today, and he’s already showing it in his preparation for the presidency.

The notion a nation should be run as if it's a corporation is a big part of why we're so fucked up now.

So Obama has been acting like a corporate CEO?

Which is of course not what Cain said.

Setting "goals", finding the "key people" to get reach those goals, making sure a team "has what it needs" to reach those goals, is not "running a nation as though it was a corporation".



THere was no talk of making a profit.

There was no talk of limited liability.

There was no talk of increasing stock prices.

Herman Cain was discribing a man with a LOT of executive experience and how he is using that experience to set up an hopefully upcoming administration.

Trump has no, or little POLITICAL experience and that is a valid point against him.

Trump has plenty of EXECUTIVE experience, and that is a valid point in his favor.

Obviously there will be differences in the job of running an administration, as opposed to a corporation.

On the other hand, there will also be plenty of overlap in the job description where Trump's resume will be a plus, if he ends up running an administration.

Setting Clear Goals? Check!

Picking good people? Check!

Delegating to good people? Check!

Getting them what they need to reach their goals? Check!

That is what this article is about.
