Also all the things done in politics are "deals". You hear them outright say so.

If you want a Senator or Congressman's vote you have to offer them a "deal" (pork barrel spending for their cronies in their state or district).

I'm pretty sure that Trump can cut deals better than any bureaucrat ever could.

I think the talk of him being unable to work with Congress isn't valid.

Now Pres. Obama? He was absolutely unable to cut any deals. And it's been reported all over the media that he didn't even bother to make phone calls to Senate and House leaders. That he is aloof.
And that would be because he never was an executive at all in anything that he ever did. He never ran a business or any form of govt. He was always in the legislative branch.

And the result was he never got any deals done and his supporters screamed the Republicans were saying "No" to everything. But what really happened is he never negotiated a deal on anything.

Trump would do just fine in that position. He's an expert at it.
