Currently he has had 3 wives and 3 families. Also, can you still be considered a family man if you lust after your biological daughter, and will screw everything with two legs that will allow you to?

He is too dumb to keep himself out of trouble.

Does that count as a redeeming quality, or does it just make him all the more annoying?

...when Trump leaves office, Congress will pass laws to make sure this never happens again. The appointment of an AG should run co-terminus with the President, but the individual can not be removed, except for "just cause" agreed upon by a bi-partisan panel.

The AG, the House of Reps or the Senate can appoint an independent counsel who will serve for the entirety of an investigation and cannot be removed, except for just cause agreed upon by a bi-partisan panel.

Every President and Vice President shall comply with the same ethics laws that apply to every other member of the Executive Branch.

Every candidate for President and Vice-President shall make available at least the past 7 years of their federal and state taxes no later than upon the nomination by a major party, or qualification of any individual in any state or district that is awarded electoral college votes, for the ballot in the general election for the offices of President or Vice-President.

Now, you must have spent weeks looking for one redeeming quality of Trump's.

how very similar our lists are.

Identical in fact.

I am fond of saying that if you got a group of average people into a focus group to give the attributes of the very worst of humanity, he would be the result.

In his book "Art of the Deal" he wrote (paraphrasing) that a businessperson (he said businessman) should always seek to hire the best people to do the job they are professional at and that one should A) always pay those best people their cost, and b) not try to do the work yourself when a professional can do it better. He may not follow these rules, but when I read them I did and it has led to much success for me. So I'll give him that.

40. tRump does have a redeeming quality that should be noted

1) He's not going to be around forever; at some point he's going to pass away and nobody will have to put up with his arrogance anymore.

That's one quality I appreciate about tRump - that he's got an expiration date. I don't know when but I hope it happens in a jail cell on a concrete bed.
