This idea that the President of the United States is supposed to be some business CEO and run the US like a business is absurd.

The President is in service to the country, like every military member and every member of the civilian government work force. The office of the President is ceremonial in part (especially for foreign interaction), and executive in part (in running the various departments and agencies.) It is not a CEO position - the President actually has very limited authority when it comes to hiring, firing, or spending.
