It's never polite to mix good conversation with politics. So we stay true to form and try no to mix the two. Be warned my world weary listeners, we will invoke the name of President Donald Trump. Not for weighing in on the political debate, but more as a cautionary tale of leading with emotion over calm discourse in all business decisions.  And...
