The idea that the US should be “run like a business” has been popular with the republic party for decades. Like many of the slogans they parrot, the actual thinkers in the party almost certainly don’t agree with it, but recognize it as a convenient talking point that will convince their base.
Now they’ve got a “businessman” in charge, but as everybody can see, the orange baby’s notion of “running a business” is not what decent people think of. The orange baby has for its whole career “run a business” on the basis of ignoring legalities, fairness, and decency, and avoiding any hint of responsibility. That’s not a business; that’s a gang.
