Doesn't his business success at least demonstrate leadership, hard work, financial efficiency, budgeting and many other things that would be great traits to lead a country.

I know little about him, so not saying I like him as their PM or not, but I don't understand dismissing people for being successful at something.
Maybe it's a post Trump reactionary sentiment that's now applied to everyone.
I don't know that it necessarily means he'll be a bad leader, but he doesn't really know what it feels like to be poor. It's one thing to know about something, but it's different to actually deal with the day to day difficulties of living that way.
