Woodward P. 226 A senior official once summarized a Trump meeting: "It seems clear that many of the president's senior advisers ... are extremely concerned with his erratic nature, his relative ignorance, his inability to learn, as well as what they consider his dangerous views."

It taught me 2 things - One was that he didn't know how to run a business. And two, he knew how to enrich himself by not running a business.

beat people up who wouldnt leave the buildings he wanted to change into condos.

His entire life is simple, daddy gives him an amount of money equal to about $200 million in today's dollars, a list of names of organized crime members who will do all the work for him (daddy knew how dumb donnie was) and told him to have the guy who runs the business make all the actual decisions. What is his name? He is working with Mueller now.

Anyway, he should have been vastly successful yet was the greatest failure in the history of humankind. Which is why he now owes Putin 4 billion per the last book written by someone who knows.

I was wrong, i said it was 1.7 billion.

And yet they cover his ample orange ass at every turn. They’re no better than he is, imho.
