I agree, Donald Trump isn’t an ideal candidate. Far from it. He’s crude and seemingly goes out of his way to impress his base with his brash, I-don’t-give-a-damn-about-political-correctness persona. However, he sent 16 other candidates to the showers with this approach. Continue reading
Political Correctness
Finally, my skepticism proven accurate
Some 20 years ago, as an executive staff member of a Fortune 500 company, I was informed that I had to attend one of the diversity training sessions scheduled over a three-week period.
