Like many other Republicans before him, Donald Trump promised to “run government like a business” when he was elected. Has he kept his promise?
Not all businesses are created equal. The Trump Organization is not exactly GM. As a businessman, Trump shamelessly sought publicity, screwed over his contractors and investors, took extreme positions in negotiations, took pride in his unpredictability and his ability to change positions on a dime, was accountable to no one but himself, and sucked up to Russians with money.
In other words, yes, he is running the government in the same way that he ran his business. Be careful what you ask for, because you might get it.
