Mother Teresa didn't teach a business class. She wasn't primarily in the money making business.
I love Mother Teresa. She did a great job for HER boss.
I can't say I love Donald Trump. I hold my breath and even switch channels when he talks even though I voted for him.
But he is not as dumb as he sounds. His financial success is proof of that. And once you get the hang of his deplorable attempts to communicate he has some decent ideas. I didn't vote for him because of his saintlike attributes. I don't think he has many if at all.
Cold,you aren't very good with words either, a lot like Donald Trump.

And if I could just add this - although his ways may seem silly or uneducated to some, I wouldn't discount them so quickly. I tend to think there is often a method to his "madness". He is not a typical politician who is used to pandering, while most of our politicians are used to being pandered to, thus the frustration. Many of us who voted for Trump did not do so because we particularly liked his style, or thought he was a mental giant, or identified in any way with his moral code. We voted for him because we wanted somebody who was different from the Washington crowd. Someone who wouldn't be afraid to upset the apple cart and would be strong enough to handle the punches along the way. From that perspective, I think so far so good.
Only time will tell, of course, if this is true and if it will work. But in the meantime, I am reluctant to question his motives when he does something that seems peculiar. I'm willing to wait and see before passing judgment. A weaker person would have caved by now.
