No wonder his companies kept going bankrupt



by Catherine Rampell at the Washington Post

If this is what “running government like a business” looks like, it’s no wonder President Trump’s companies kept going bankrupt.

One week into the presidency, we’ve gotten a taste of Trump’s management style. And so far it’s been plagued by many of the bad habits common to poorly run businesses.

Take, for example, his administration’s clear indifference to — or outright rejection of — good measurement and analytics.

Conclusion at best: Trumpy is inept. Great article, well worth the read.

Vacant hit piece.

I don't remember seeing her writing a single thing about veterans dying at the VA due to lack of care, if she was really interested in running things well.

While I'll give Trump credit for immediately addressing some of the things he said he was going to do this first week has been chaotic and rather disheveled at the very least. I suspect though that this will be par for the course although I hope not.

He's been in office less than a week.

Just saying...

Fear profits a man nothing.
