Democrats ought to kill the GOP "experience doesn't matter" crap

[yurbud]

There is some minimal amount of experience in government someone must have to be president.

Even our last president with no elective experience, Dwight D. Eisenhower, had very comparable experience as supreme allied commander in Europe, wrangling our allies to work together.

A businessman, especially one who starts at or near the top by virtue of birth, does not know how to persuade people who aren't already on his side.

On an unrelated point, as we saw with Baby Bush and Cheney, when you make a businessman president, he won't run the government LIKE a business, he will run it AS an extension of his own business.

You can take that to the bank.

Bush and Cheney did, and Trump certainly will.

to change the oil in their car. But apparently, 42% of Americans are fine with an inexperienced moron having his finger on the nuclear button.
