If you go INTO business knowing NOTHING about it, and you FAIL, is it a GOOD excuse to say, well what did you expect, I'm NOT a businessman?

    It's a good excuse but in politics you can be a good bull sh---er and still succeed.

    Hello again, Tom:

    Actually, it IS a craft.  You can't learn it on the fly..  Trumps ignorance of the craft was on full display at the Al Smith dinner the other night.  If you watched, you saw Trump handle it VERY BADLY..  Did I say VERY BADLY??? 

    Events like these and the relationships formed from them, are the GLUE that makes politics WORK.  He's NOT a dictator..  He CAN'T ram his agenda down our throats.  It'll NEVER pass UNLESS he plays politics.  It's NOT a business skill... Trump has NO CLUE how to do that..

    I understand that but when you have a government as we do now with a bunch of career politicians who are only for themselves there has to be a change.
     The liberal Democratic party will ruin the country as we know it.

    Really?

    How much do you think Bill Gates knew about the consumer and small business software markets before he and Paul Allen started Microsoft? Must have learned from IBM about individual consumers' buying habits.

    Hello Red:

    I'm sorry..  Please re-read the question..  I wasn't asking about people who MADE it..  I was asking about the EXCUSES people use when they don't..

    You tried to make a blanket statement that impeached EVERYONE that started into a business without intimate knowledge thereof. Your answer to my question clearly demonstrates that you don't know what you're talking about.

    Well. That depends.  Who you talking to?  You talking to me?  Huh?  You talking to me?   If you owe me money, I think you had better put that money where you mouth is or you die.  YOU DIE.

    I'm torn. Should I post Rhianna's Bitch Better Have My Money or Robert Di Niro in Taxidriver?
