Donald Trump: positives?

The whole Trump campaign spectacle is such a drunken, insane circus that we’ve all become inured to new revelations and gaffes that, individually, would have sunk almost any prior candidate. The accusations and revelations, very few of which seem to be invented, inflated or taken out of context, are past shocking and into numbing.

So Let’s Play…
**Good Qualities, Abilities and Accomplishments of Donald J. Trump.

**(I’d start with an example, but I can’t think of one.)

Well, he’s entertaining.

He’s 70, so it’s statistically likely he won’t be around long.

He is an excellent self-promoter. He represents a life-style to which many aspire to. In his way, he is successful at business - he uses other people’s money to generate a stream of personal cash flow that is quite envious*. He has become an election away from joining a exclusive club of 45 people, some of whom represent the titanic figures in our nation’s history.

*You wanted the positive take, so no qualifiers… though I SO wanted to add a few. :slight_smile:

He almost makes Ted Cruz look Presidential.
Almost.

He does an adequate job of converting atmospheric oxygen and processed nutrients into energy sufficient for the biological requirements of a roughly 100 kg mammalian biped.

It’s likely that at least some of us would survive the global nuclear cataclysm he’ll initiate when he decides that Russia is being “unfair” to him.

He managed to convince an extremely attractive woman, 24 years his junior, to marry him.

As he mentioned in the debate, he has a yuge…bank account.

!. He owns his own suits.

He is boundlessly self-confident.

He is not afraid to appear in public with ridiculous hair and an unnatural skin tone.

He has a good appetite.

He is a U.S. citizen.

He kept Ted Cruz and Chris Christie (at least for now) from becoming President.

He has given job security to thousands of comedy writers.

He has a hot daughter.*

  • which it is in no way creepy that he wants to bang her.

Orange is the new white.

He is not an identical twin.

He could end the GOP.

It could be his legacy!

He’s never actually stood in the middle of 5th Avenue and shot anybody.

So far.

He provides the short-fingered vulgarians of the world with a role model

He shows America is still a land of opportunity where anyone can run for President, regardless of qualifications

He was ranked #1 in the ‘SPY 100’ – more than once!*

(*It sounds positive as long as you don’t mention that it was SPY magazine’s annual ranking of the “100 most annoying, appalling and alarming” people and things of the year.)

His hands are useful for reaching into small spaces.

His hair makes bald men realize their fate isn’t so bad
