"A lot of people think I’m doing this for fun," he said as he opened his speech announcing his Presidential bid. He went on to elaborate that he is very serious in seeking the White House.
His stances are conservative, he has more executive experience than many of America's top CEO's combined, and he has fiery rhetoric.
There is only one problem; he is not the nicest fellow. In his speech, he reiterated that despite criticism to the contrary, he does think of himself as a nice guy. Giving to charities (which he does in abundance) is great, but it doesn't make you a nice person.
You've got to not only be polite and respectful to those around you, you have to know how to play ball with the press who controls your political fate. He will struggle to do this if he's even able to do it at all.
Time will tell, but I predict he doesn't win the Republican nomination.
What would be some pros and cons of Donald Trump becoming the president of the USA?
1. Donald Trump's background has been pretty well examined, and what you see is pretty much what you get, so he isn't an unknown commodity at this point and we probably have seen most of his worst attributes already -- granted, those negative attributes can seem bad, but notice that in any presidential election you could probably make a laundry list of the worst attributes of any candidate and come up with lots of negatives equal to or worse than Trump's;
2. Trump's business experience involves negotiations with business leaders and even governments around the world, and he likely has connections behind the scenes that surpass those of simply purely political candidates -- this gives him keen, realistic insights into economics in different parts of the world, as well as additional avenues to pursue trade agreements, and even perhaps some nuanced awareness of particular financial weaknesses of possible global competitors, not to mention experience and insight into the partnerships and/or antagonism between different industries and particular governments;
3. Trump has a confidence and powerful personality that, like it or not, tend to work well in politics, and make it far less likely he would become too strongly beholden to this or that external influencer -- we complain often about our elected officials being in the pocket of lobbyists and special interests, but Trump is his own special interest and he seems unlikely to let his own sense of personal power and rightness become manipulated or dominated by outside forces;
4. Trump is undeniably a great negotiator, and despite his bombastic public statements he has also mastered the fine art of navigating complex deals and convincing a wide variety of governments, industries, businesses, and investors to do what he wants and to work with him to achieve his goals -- while some might dislike this or that particular goal toward which Trump worked in those instances, as president a large portion of his negotiating would by necessity be in favor of very standard U.S. positions on international issues, and Trump would be applying his skills to push a lot of policies that came through/earned support from a Congress that represents the voters and that has created compromise deals and policies, rather than Trump just out there still negotiating his personal business deals that the public and our representatives weren't involved in;
5. Trump definitely supports free enterprise and favors less regulation of the market, so those who favor more libertarian economic policies might find Trump's views on these matters to be highly positive.
