Ruining high level business gives me more confidence in your skills than being a PE teacher i.e. Justin.
I'm not sure if you meant ruining or running, as I'm pretty sure both apply, but being better than someone that's underqualified doesn't make you qualified, it just makes you less underqualified.

I like his business style, he tells it like it is. On that end of the spectrum, it also means he lacks compassion. I don't see him being the leader of any country without it. It would be very surprising if he was able to make it to the leadership of the tories, let alone PM of Canada.
To start with, yes O'Leary and Trump are both businessmen that were on TV, but calling Kevin Canada's Trump is pretty silly and that needs to stop before it starts. Trump seems to have actually lost his mind and is less of a businessman and more of a buffoon these days.
Im strongly against career politicians, and a big fan of non-politician business people running for office. Kevin seems to be quite fiscally responsible and we will have to see what his platform looks like, but I bet it will be very center, with a strong focus on correcting the economy.
And I know most of RS is pretty solidly in the Liberal camp, but stand back for a second and realize Canada started this ball rolling with elected a pretty face celebrity in 2015. Justify it all you want, but thats who most Liberal voters voted for. 15 months later and we've still only got a pretty face celebrity... and a horrifying economic outlook.
And finally, aside from the french thing, the big thing that will hold Kevin back is his stance on firearms. A big majority of firearms owners are conservatives (they have to be), and Kevin is not pro-firearm. That is a non starter for a huge number of conservatives.
Kevin O'Leary is fiscally responsible!!! What are you smoking RRxtar, go take 5 minutes out of your day and look at the list of companies and hedge funds he's completely ruined. The only thing he's good at financially is lining his pockets at the expense of other people.
Pretty face has been in office a little more than a year, still above 50% of promises delivered and a few in progress. Conservative economy wasn't that great under Harper either.
From the people Trump is appointing to his administration, it looks like they're going to be in a world of hurt. I can honestly say that I wouldn't trust a business man, successful or not, to be in office at this point.
According to the article a page back, Kevin does seem fiscally responsible. But with a bit of digging, he's just a persona on TV. His book, "Cold hard truth", is also telling of his arrogance and unwillingness to be accountable for his actions.
With the likes of Harper, Trump, and Bush being elected. I can say he has a chance.
Come on man, that's not "telling it like is" that's more like spewing ignorance.
Sure there might be some Cinderella rags to riches stories out there, but they're extremely rare compared to the other 3.499999 billion out there who will be stuck in eternal poverty. Their social situations will simply never lend them those opportunities to become "stinking rich" as that penis-face puts it.
So please explain how 3.5 billion people living in poverty is fanatic news?
It's the ongoing reality of this earth.
You going to help some fucking family living in a straw hut by texting a $25 donation to 5555?
We were all born into the privilege of first world luxury. Unless you're gonna go to Africa and get your hands dirty please don't act like backing dumb dumb Justin giving the UN 10 million+ of our dollars to "distribute" to Africa is actually going to change a thing.
Hop up on dat African aid bangwagon for 15 minutes before going out for a $150 dinner and forgetting about it all.

Sorry, I think you dodged the question. How is it still fantastic news?
Q&A: Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary
It turns out Mr. Wonderful lives on Marlborough Street. The ‘meanest’ shark on ABC’s hit show Shark Tank talks venture investing, the Patriots, and why Boston is his favorite place to call home.
I am surprised no one has brought up kelly leach and 22/18 letters after her name.

Is this the American conservative party he's running for?? or the Canadian conservative party?? I don't think firearms is going to be a big deal in our election process... if anything it'll probably work against him in Canada if he was pro-firearm.
Anybody remember this from 2011? I'm pretty sure he'd fuck over our entire country just to make a buck. People are always concerned about politicians taking money from big corporations, what do you think this guys gonna do?
