Does someone winning an election prove they are an expert at whatever the election is for?

Ie is Trump an expert at running the country because he won the election? Was Biden an expert president before him?

Is Landry an expert at running the state? Is Cantrell an expert Mayor?

What do elections even prove? We don’t vote for experts who can solve specific problems (because that isn’t who runs for office, generally); we vote for people we like.


It all seems so stupid. Our economy seems just as fake and pointless, too.

Are you having some sort of crisis? "What's it all about, man? How can we really know anything?"

Imagine posting this 8 days after Trump has already made such sweeping changes and is solving a lot of problems.

They prove which policies the majority of Americans want to see implemented.

Trump is an expert at building teams that accomplish his vision. He was elected because America shares his vision.

Certainly not in Obama's case. Or Biden's.

Who are some potential individuals you think might be better general problem solvers than Donald Trump?

GEOTUS is better at running the Executive Branch than most of his predecessors.
Give it time and you too will realize that it is true.
You will come to enjoy winning as well.
