I'm much more concerned with the fact that our current government has no problem wasting billions of dollars on failed crime and drug policies, or implementing incredibly worrying surveillance and security protocols, than I am with a guy not knowing the corporate tax rate off the top of his head. One of those things is a lot easier to fix.
EDIT: That came off more dickish and abrasive than it was intended. My point was, I just don't get logic that says "I mean they're kitten-strangling Nazis, but my god they manage the economy well."

See what I did there?
