When it appears that all the deals are being made from the inside to benefit those political elite against the public will, an outsider appears very attractive. Donald Trump seems to be such an outsider, who won’t be influenced by monies to make deals that he considers bad for the American public because he doesn’t need this cash flow. Yet I believe it’s important to look at the whole pie (see below) of what Donald truly could bring to the table. Is there a piece I’m missing?
ALLIES- Those who have served in government already have well established allies that can make sure bills move through Congress faster then they normally could and with the small print easily read. Developing such allies from the outside could work but might be take more time then one thinks.
ENEMIES- People who have served in government might have in depth knowledge of who to avoid because sometimes politicians appear nice from the outside but that is only to snap on you from the inside. An outsider can hire an individual (s) who has this experience but then they are reliant on their knowledge and skills to get it done.
THE PIE- It might appear easy to make but seeing a pie is not making a pie and running a government has more intricate pieces then making a pie or even constructing a building. Of course hiring individuals with these skills will help but would you trust a plumber to build a sky scraper from day one?
