Lutnick is stupid. Many rich people keep excellent track of their money. PS: His description of a "fraudster" is Trump exactly.

Well, ok, but you don't learn HOW to think without some strong ideas to think ABOUT, and many college students haven't learned the basics about US government. I've got students who think that if the President is a Christian, then the US is "a Christian country."

Even if we discount the alcoholism and sexual assault charges, he is not qualified for a job of this magnitude.

With all this changing the names of places, at least he won't need to change the name of the White House.

I think it's more that they think qualification is irrelevant and refute the very concept of expertise.
