Besides the fact he's never coached a team, has never run a large organization, or has any relevant experience in any respect at a time when the entire organization needs leadership, a steady hand, and needs a complete overhaul, here are some of the top comments...

"Wow, this would be fascinating. I'd like to hear his platform"
"Plz"
"Save us, LD."
"I’m all for it and I don’t even need to hear his plan. If his plan is anything like what Taylor Twellman believes, which I’m almost certain it is, then yes."

This is how we ended up with Trump.
