Sadly, @AndrewYang is one of those businessmen/entrepreneurs who mistakenly thinks his business experience gives him deep insight into how the real world works and how to fix everything, coupled with the arrogance of thinking the Presidency is an entry level political office.https://twitter.com/RyanMarino/status/1156894131232366594 …

This side of Yang is usually missed by the media because of the YangBucks. He writes several times that he wants efficiency in gov/health by auditing/management consultants. There is a time and place for everything, but this is just business-ideology in place of policy.

I would love someone with an audience to... call them on it? "Can you explain what makes you qualified for this position despite never having worked in government? Can you identify any ways in which the government doesn't function like a business? How would you adapt to that?"

The last businessman-turned-President before Trump? Peanut farmer Jimmy Carter. Before him? Herbert Hoover. Not great as Presidents, to say the least. And neither treated POTUS as an entry level job, they first served as state governor and Cabinet secretary respectively.

See also: Pete Buttigieg. Who seems like a smart and well-intentioned guy, but being mayor of a town of 100,000 is not adequate preparation to be POTUS. For the love of Cthulhu, go and run for governor or Congress or something first.

Trump is the model for this. He couldn't run in NY because people hate him there.
