The percentage of each past president’s cabinet who had worked in the private business sector prior to their appointment to the cabinet. You know what the private business sector is: A real-life business not a government job.
Here are the percentages:
90% Trump |
57% Eisenhower |
56% Reagan |
55% GW Bush |
53% Nixon |
52% Wilson |
51% GH Bush |
50% Truman |
50% F. D. Roosevelt |
49% Harding |
48% Coolidge |
47% Johnson |
42% Hoover |
42% Ford |
40% Taft |
39% Clinton |
38% T. Roosevelt |
32% Carter |
30% Kennedy |
08% Obama |
This helps explain the bias, if not the incompetence, of the Obama administration: ONLY 8% of them had ever worked in private business!
Only eight percent – the least, by far of the last 19 presidents! And these are the people who want to run again… against Trump.
