What saddens me, is that by the standards of corporate world Trump didn't do anything extraordinary. He was running a country in a style of a mediocre corporate executive. Same type of an executive that, for example, resulted in The Boeing Company suffering losses and having fleets grounded. But nothing special, really. Think "Uber" type of a corporate culture. Or "WeWork". Used to run a country.
It is no wonder, the likely result is 400k+ deaths and a worst downturn in a century. And one doesn't need to look further than Taiwan or South Korea, to see that it was not inevitable and preventable by good governance.
A wish for good governance. Less cynicism. And a shift of culture in both politics and corporate world that doesn't allow for such disasters.
Trump would not have lasted as CEO more than a few months. Such blatant lying and bullshitting just does not fly in a corporation with a board. He only sat atop Trump empire for so long because there was no one but him running the show.
