Sure, but Trump wasn't exactly a great businessman. The numerous bankruptcies and failed businesses, combined with the significant financial support from his father, suggest that his record as a businessman is poor as well.

I think its reasonable to assume someone who successfully managed a large and complex business organization might be skilled at managing a large and complex government. They seem like related skills to me. Bloomberg, for example.
