There certainly is in the sense he is not really a politician, you can make more of it if you like, but I believe he is a dirty ruthless businessman with a ego that is unmatched by few.
Markkkk (yes I'm still following here) no disrespect intended to you but that's BS.

I notice that you pivoted back to Trump alone as soon as you got past the first sentence.
My question was deliberately addressed to the question of Trump's associates, whom he personally selected and in whom he has placed his trust during his campaign and during his period in office. What do you think of them? Have they proved themselves to be above or below what you think of as an acceptable standard of probity?
(Nope. I'm not really interested in anybody not connected with Trump. Because, oh, I dunno. Maybe something to do with him being president at the moment, and a whole lot of what I believe is called 'weird ____' going on at the moment.)
Which ones? Some are creditable others maybe not so much. If you have a point to make about someone make it.

Marrk,
If you can believe that someone can campaign for, and be elected to, the office of the President of the United States, and then continue to serve two years in the office, can be considered to be "not a politician"...then you can believe any preposterous nonsense. How can anyone have a conversation with you?

LOL...are you that desperate that you have to be so wooden. A key phrase I used is "in a sense..." If you believe Trump is your average or even close to average politician fine...and if you believe most of the politicians in Washington pure businesspersons that is also fine.

You didn't use the key phrase "in a sense".
You used the phrases "in some sense" and "in the sense."
You aren't quoting yourself accurately here.
So. How is he in a sense, in some sense, or in the sense, not really a politician?
