It’s absurd that people think trump has any sort of “business acumen.” His businesses fail more often than they succeed. He’s been busted for fraud multiple times. Filed for bankruptcy multiple times. Sued for failing to pay contractors hundreds of times. Banks refused to lend him money. His contemporaries call him the dumbest person they’ve ever met.

  Apparently they've never met his supporters.

  He played a successful businessman on a reality TV show. That's it, that's why people think he knows what he's doing, because they evidently can't tell the difference between fiction and reality.
  
  That's the thing he's actually good at. Acting. Getting people to believe in fiction. It's a good trait for an actor, a despicable power of conmen, and horrifying in a leader.
  
  Religious people are a goldmine for scammers like Trump. A person who can be convinced that there is an invisible man who lives in the sky and grants wishes or that there was a zombie 2000 years ago who walked on water can be convinced of anything. Born to be rubes.
- Filed for bankruptcy multiple times.
  Some of these were even for his casinos. He couldn’t even get casinos right.
- TV needed a star for a show and created a story that he was a great businessman. All the real successful businessman were busy, true story.
- This is after borrowing millions from The Bank of Daddy. Without his parents wealth, he'd be nothing.
- I would argue Trump has great business acumen for exactly the reasons you describe.
  He’s a mobster who got rich off strong arming, manipulation, and fraud.
  Stop assuming his incompetence at being an evil capitalist billionaire and maybe people will finally accept that he is a highly capable amoral danger to the world.
