    He’s a dealer, not a businessman. Deal ≠ business economics ≠ national economics ≠ global economics.

    If you apply the “art of the deal” to the global economy, you’ll wreck it. Well, if you apply his “art of the deal”, you’ll wreck basically anything except you’re own wallet.

      A del would imply he’s good at negotiation. He isn’t. He’s good at leveraging people, but mostly that’s been illegal. If he was good at deals, he wouldn’t have messed up international relations, which is deal making, but more complex. He’s a rich kid that fell upwards and inspired a cult following through sheer luck.
