The Political Apprentice


Is Trump a political apprentice? Has he been working behind the scenes in politics for 40 years learning the politicians trade? His strongest competition, Ted Cruz says, "Trump isn't an Outsider." Cruz is trying to warn those who believe that they are voting for someone who isn't a politician, those hoping for a greater change from someone 'outside' the political machine. 
Trump is well known as the host of The Apprentice. Trump is also considered one of the greatest businessmen of our generation. He has amassed billions of dollars through his ability to 'wheel and deal' with other business persons, as well as being extremely skilled at assessing and hiring other people to get jobs completed. 
Why does Trump gets votes? 
When we consider Trump's wealth and success as a businessman, we automatically think he is the best person to save America from its ginormous Deficit. We have also read about his bankruptcy and failures and we have seen him rise from those ashes. 
Does it matter if he has been a political apprentice for over 40 years? 
First, it's funny that his competitors are now saying he isn't an outsider, when they were criticizing him for not knowing enough about government to do the job. Now, they are telling us he has been involved in (studying) government and politics for 40 years! 
When I consider this implication, I think, Wow! Trump has been watching and learning until he felt ready to step up as the President, aka "Project Manager" for this task. It is by far the largest "Task" with a multitude of challenges without question that he has ever contemplated but it's very 'comforting' to know that Trump hasn't just jumped in simply thinking he can get this job done. We should have known better. 
As I've said before, I think Trump can do the job and will hire the right people to help him do the job, and accomplish the tasks. I did have some doubts because of his lack of experience in politics and government but thanks to Cruz - I'm more convinced that Trump can be a great president, he can and will hire the very best people to help him and he will not give up until he completes each task and makes America great again.
