Trump's a practical businessman who built a small empire of his own and achieved celebrity status by creating his own hit show who took a major cut in pay and a reduction in lifestyle to serve as our President.
It's really hard to be wrong on every count, but you managed it this time. It's conservatives that insist on everyone behaving as they see fit, and enforcing that with the imprimatur of law. That's not to say that the PC crowd wouldn't do the same given the chance, but it's only on the right that it's there from the center-right to the several extremes in your coalition. Trump's at the front of that line. And lets' get through the "practical businessman" nonsense. He's bankrupted one endeavor after another. If he didn't have Deutsche Bank backing his action, he'd be totally bankrupt by now. His hit TV show was bad, even by reality TV standards, and I doubt he's lost a dime with all the shilling he's done while in office.
Did you know that only one out of ten new business ventures succeed and the rest fail within five years? Well, the same goes for Trump and his business ventures. He probably does better than average business person and is able to have a few other new ventures succeed as most others fail. That's business as we say. The PC crowd is currently doing the same and they're becoming a major problem that will have to dealt with harshly. You see, nothing is sacred or viewed as off limits by them which is why we're going to be clashing with them and more or less eliminating them. The reason is pretty simple, there's nothing sacred about them that we have to be concerned about with the higher powers above so to speak.
It's true that business ventures tend to fold early if they're going to fail, but underfunding is the most common reason. Trump started life with $200Million, and hasn't done much to grow it further. He's wedded to ostentatious projects he can put his grimy name on, and his record for picking winners is poor at best. This has nothing to do with the PC crowd, just simple observation. If he wasn't more than willing to shill, he would be broke already. Right now, he's fleecing his own supporters for money he'll need when he's out of office.
Most of the small business failures are restaurants and stores, with small farms disappearing as corporate entities buy them out. Starting a restaurant or store is fairly easy, but operating them isn't as easy as it looks. The husband can do the cleaning and running the cash register, the kids can serve the meals and clean dishes, and the mother is a superb cook... oh, maybe she isn't! The kids get drawn into the usual attractions such as dating... and there goes the reliable wait-staff.
