It would be illogical for a businessman not to exploit the system within the bounds of the law. Those who don't get outcompeted. The behavior of businesspeople should not be expected to be the same as elected politicians.
- jasonlotito 9y agoSure, but he is a politician, and so we are holding him to those stated standards. Why shouldn't we judge a politican as a politician?
- TheAdamAndChe 9y agoWe shouldn't judge all his past behaviors under the lens of a politician because he wasn't a politician. He was a businessman. The fact that he is pushing for immigration reform while he historically exploited those systems shows that he is able to differentiate between necessary ruthless business tactics and civic duty.
- jasonlotito 9y agoI'm not. These are things his companies are still doing since he's been a politician and the President. So, I ask again: Why shouldn't we judge a politician as a politician?
