Ok my gosh, wow. You can’t be serious. I wasn’t taught that in the first F$@(king grade. Most of the founding fathers were lawyers. This made them good at writing legal documents. Such as the bill of rights and Declaration of Independence.
I can’t seem to remember them arranging any trade agreements with any country other than asking France for help and $. Golly, that makes them great economists. Enough said. I will hang up and listen now while u teach the class.

That’s a laughable argument. Who exactly were they supposed to negotiate with when the country wasn’t recognized, had no standing, no currency, and no credit?

Before you can negotiate trade, you have to create the conditions that make trade possible. You need a few bare minimums. Like a functioning government, money, a system for collecting taxes, a line of credit. They built that from the ground up while funding and fighting a war and holding thirteen rival colonies together.

You’re dismissing their economic understanding based on an arbitrary standard of your own creation that they didn’t sign enough foreign contracts, while ignoring the fact that they set in motion the most powerful economic engine in history. And instead you credit that achievement to them just being pretty good paralegals?

Holy shite.

Word salad.
I’m not dismissing. There is no evidence of, Dookie implies that the founding fathers were good at economics. There is no way to tell. However as a betting man I would assume a business man who studied economics as part of his degree requirements would be more aware of the concepts of economics than someone who was never required to take an economics course to complete their professional learning. The whole argument of sotero being better with the economy than a business man has been proven incorrect.

I am not the one making the argument. Dookie was arguing that sotero knew how to run a better economy than trump bc he was a lawyer and that lawyers were good at running economies because the founding fathers were lawyers.

Holy shite, where’s the damn Tylenol!

Check this out hammer…you injected a bunch of crap that was not pertinent to the original conversation.
I never mentioned that the founders were great traders or not. I didn’t dispel the notion that they were or were not aware of making trade agreements. I simply proposed that someone that practices business and has a business degree simply knew more about economics than a trained practicing lawyer with a law degree.
You are not l to following the discussion. You cannot hijack a thread that your liberal comrade got himself in into to make it whatever you want to make it about. This thread is about business men running business. And lawyers doing the lawyering. The USA needs a business men now and not a commie lawyer.

Answer your own question. I do not need to solidify my claim. Any educated person would agree that my statement is unequivocally true.

Dookie linked sotero w the founding fathers bc they were lawyers and sotero was also an Ivy League (communist, Marxist, socialist, anti-Semite) “trained” lawyer in profession. I am simply ascertaining that trump is better with micro and macro economics than jug ears.

Such a stupid libtard talking point. He was a business owner, investor, real estate mogul, and became a successful reality TV show host because of his brand.

Ronald Reagan, on the other hand, was a movie star and not much else. And was also a better president than Obama.

You’re trying to rewrite the thread after the fact. The Founders weren’t my example. Duke mentioned them first, and you jumped in with:

You didn’t think it was off topic then. You only decided it was irrelevant after you got called on it.

You argued that being a lawyer makes someone less competent with economics than a businessman. That's fine and I would have skipped right past your point had you not chosen to attempt make it by contrasting the lawyers that engineered the system that went on to become the most prolific money-making machine in history to any jackass with an MBA.

That’s what I replied to.

Now you’re insisting you “never mentioned” whether they were good at trade, which is funny since your post literally used that as the measure of their competence. You can’t base a claim on profession-based ability, then pretend you weren’t making the comparison the when someone challenges it.

The rest of your reply is just a slow retreat. Calling it a thread about “businessmen running business” didn’t erase what you said. You chose your argument. I stayed right there.

And “any educated person would agree” isn’t proof. People don’t reach for that line when they have evidence. They use it when they’re hoping no one asks for any.
