typically people who are rich are not stupid, as fools are the ones who can't hang on to their money. but intelligence isn't everything. i doubt einstien would have made a great leader. a leader needs to be well rounded, and business acumen, while a good quality, also isn't everyhting. unlike romney for example, another businessman who thought he could lead the nation, trump has a jarring personality. romeny was seen as robotic/plastic which might be offputting to some people, but he's not yelling about shit and becoming a parody of himself.
i think trump's just playing a sanders type role trying to move the front runners towards his position, whatever that is. or more like, building up the trump image or something
