[QUOTE="dgiharris, post: 70890592, member: 322579"] So his main qualification is being married to Trump's daughter and also being a good businessman? I feel we as a country have made a false equivalency between business and politics. Business and politics are not the same thing. My thoughts are best captured by this venn Diagram I made :D [IMG]http://i1043.photobucket.com/albums/b432/Harry_Sapien/Trump%20BSP%20Venn_zpsxab6kbbt.jpg[/IMG] How often in business do you knowingly and directly kill someone to make a deal? how often in business are you working with parties that want to actually kill each other? I'm not talking in terms of hyperbole or metaphors I'm talking reality-- they literally want to kill each other! SO this isn't some business deal, this is politics to the nth degree This is such an incredibly naive and ignorant position. We aren't talking about solving a crossword puzzle here, we are talking about a very complex and emotional issue in which countless lives have been lost. Walking in as a green newbie and saying, "Hey guys, what seems to be the problem, I'm sure we can come to some solution. I once brokered a really big $30 Million dollar deal so I'm sure I can help you guys out with your little problem here..." I mean seriously? So convincing your Father in law to not be a moron on one phone call qualifies you to broker peace in the Middle East... okay got it. Gee, wonder why I was so worried. :doh: No. The stakes are not high. If Jared fails, does he lose his house? Does he lose his ability to make money? Will he get divorced? Will his children die? Will his wife be blown up by a car bomb? So please, the stakes are not high for him. If anything, the difficulty of his impossible task is so well known that no one would blame him in the least for being unable to accomplish it. [/QUOTE]
