    Back in 1928, Herbert Hoover (R) was elected POTUS
    His business background constituted much of his political beliefs.

    As most of us know - Hoover was President when the Great Depression began in 1929.

    Now that Businessman Donald Trump will be President of the United States - could Trumps policies
    have similar results as Hoover?
