HI rd,

Never had kids - hard to answer for me.

I think his business track record would overide my judgement - so yes I think I'd let my daughter date him.

RDK, I'll answer.
I would NOT want my daughter to marry him (I'd "let" her if it was her choice, but I'd try to talk sense to her first); however, "we" hired this guy to do a job, and maybe he will be a lot better at certain aspects of it than many of his predecessors. The politics as usual we've had lately have avoided a number of sacred cows who have lobbied heavily to remain sacred; both sides of the aisle have accepted their $$.
Trump has the unique ability to cut through the BS and tell these guys they have to play ball.

That's my only sense of optimism about him. I think he's a butthead as a person, and will be an embarassment in many ways, but if he can tackle some of the hard issues, maybe we can be better for it.

For the record, I didn't vote for him, and I have (kinda) met him.
