This constant refrain of comparing the country to a corporation is troubling, to say the least. Not to mention that Trump the businessman isn't hugely successful, either...

Also goddamn, defending his flip-flopping and his statements on John McCain...Come on. Really. What the heck.

And his way of making companies profitable is to do all the things that make those voters' lives more difficult - outsourcing, tax loopholes, etc. It's truly absurd that this quality should make him appealing to anyone.

I read this morning that he made $210 in royalties on his back catalogue of stupid books. He made low six figures on the most recent stupid book. It was an article on his financial disclosure and I was ready to post it but that was the only interesting point.
