Other than that one point, I basically agree with what you've said.

There's no question that business doesn't need the cajoling by a POTUS to make decisions to invest in potentially profitable businesses. The POTUS would be better served calling in his whole cabinet and lecturing them on doing...or undoing...the things that reduce the confidence of business here in the U.S. That would include stuff like re-reviewing every single regulation that slows down or inhibits business or investment, re-looking at the Patent Office, which has a 3-year backlog of patents awaiting processing, juggling the budgets of the various departments in order to provide funds for infrastructure development, juggling even more funds to do the things that will educate our kids better, and so forth.
He doesn't need a businessman in the room for any of those ideas.
