Is there a successful business man who is not self interested?
At his level I'm sure you have to be to pull off something like this.

Members of the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 riot said they have received correspondence from former President Donald Trump's team and have extended his deadline to turn over documents by another week.
When the panel issued its subpoena for Trump, it said the records were originally due on Friday, with testimony due 10 days later.
"We have received correspondence from the former President and his counsel in connection with the Select Committee's subpoena," Chairman Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., and Vice Chair Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., said in a statement Friday. "We have informed the former President's counsel that he must begin producing records no later than next week and he remains under subpoena for deposition testimony starting on November 14th."
The committee has granted extensions to deadlines before, especially when there have been ongoing talks with a subject's lawyers.
The committee is asking for documents including records of phone calls, text messages, encrypted messages (such as Signal), photos, videos, electronic and hand-written notes, summaries and memoranda of conversation. Much of it is from the days around Jan. 6, 2021.
Trump is not expected to cooperate.
If he does not, the committee could issue a contempt referral for the former president. It's also considered formally referring Trump for criminal charges tied to the Jan. 6 attack.
It's unclear whether the panel will take either of those unprecedented steps.
The committee is due to issue its final report and sunset by year's end.
Ever tried to restore a piece of wood back to it's former self after being gutted by white ants?So how is the current Government doing?

No thanks to Trump that's how I view Biden's job, virtually impossible but his mob have tackled issues that the MAGA fanatics failed to do. E.g., taking covid seriously and tackling gun control.
Biden, like most western leaders, faces rising costs across the board especially in healthcare.
Thanks to an event created by another idiot, Biden like the rest of us, need to deal inflation pressures.
Some pluses for Biden's administration include the return to the Paris Accord (from memory), a humanitarian approach to immigration, student debt relief, Inflation Reduction Act to name a few.
From a western POV, with Biden as POTUS America is no longer seen as a going it alone, negating the disunity that the "mouth" had created.
FWIW, Trump's trips to Nth Korea and Russia were just self adulating, ego stroking at best and (with Mar-a-Lago in mind) selling out the US of A and the West at worst.

I'll say it again: I doubt Trump will get the numbers to run again. A lot of those on the right know that Trump is too divisive. His time has passed already and he will be too old by 2024.
I'd put bets on DeSantis.
Democrats huge harvesting of 'vote by mail' system is the winner. Without this and Democrats would have lost by a large margin.I hope you are right.
It is also other factors, abortion, some pretty poor candidates (selected by Trump). I saw one Republican say he voted for Kari Lake (old news anchor) and said he thought she was batshit crazy but he didn't want the Dems to win.Democrats huge harvesting of 'vote by mail' system is the winner. Without this and Democrats would have lost by a large margin.
Unless Republicans catch up with similar harvesting, then they will struggle.
This was a deviation from the norm of how midterms go. Well targeted campaigns by the dems and a lot of borderline tactics to lessen the blow.
