(I guess that means that any uneducated, crazy, wife-beating, drug or alcohol abusing criminal could qualify besides, since it does not seem to be of a concern what one's background is, if they can at least entertain a crowd).

Yup. And everything in that list was only theoretical until very recently. There's nothing to stop a raving lunatic from being elected except the voters.

We have a superficial Kardashian president. Of course other celebrities think they can do this.

Let's revisit in two years when we see the actual results of what this guy has done to the country.

Which party are you referring to? You do know that most American Jews are liberals and Democrats, right?

I don't think Richard Spencer, David Duke and his following are Dems.

No one needs to show tax returns

No one needs to tell the truth

One can colluded with foreign powers to meddle in the election for you

You can use all the money you earned from a life of criminal acts cheating people, shorting contractors, and laundering money for mobsters

You can hire all your family members

You can fire the FBI director if you think he is investigating you.

You can pick who runs the DOJ and make sure they won't investigate you.

You can count on the support of your base no matter what you do.

Well almost on the DOJ point...

Trump : “ Sessions should have never recused himself , and if he was going to recuse himself , he should have told me before he took the job, and I would have picked somebody else .”

Translation: Sessions is not loyal to POTUS and didn't stop the Russian investigation. I would not have hired him had I known he would enable the DOJ to do its job.
