I've already said I meant "unqualified." Just like he was unqualified to be the one in charge of "middle east peace" and he's also the guy that had his security clearance rejected about a dozen times because of how many conflicts of interest he has overseas only for the president to eventually override it.

His grandfather was a huge real estate mogul and his father is a crook and went to federal prison for corruption (tax evasion, witness tampering, etc.). His daddy bought his way into Harvard and then handed him his real estate company after he went to prison. He also bought a legitimate newspaper, turned it into a tabloid and then ran it into the ground. His story sounds very similar to someone else, except that he hasn't bankrupted dozens of companies.

He's about as qualified to handle middle east peace talks or how to handle emergency medical supplies during a pandemic as I am qualified to be a neurosurgeon... Then again, he's also about as qualified as a guy that didn't understand that the Department of Energy dealt with nuclear energy to be the Secretary of Energy or as qualified as a former surgeon to be the head of HUD or a woman who spent her entire life trying to gut public education in favor of private to be the Secretary of Education.

But sure, if you consider having a big bank account or a hot wife somehow being a measure of how competent you are at government, then well... okay...
