Reading Trump?


I saw a book by Trump online called "A day in the life of  Donald Trump".
I copied something, then looked into it and was impressed, next forgot about it but looked again, and now I am really going to read.
I am very slow.

The idea would be to find out why even great papers like Die Zeit in Germany and the NZZ in Switzerland condemned him so heavily.

This way I discovered that after living in Spain for so many years I had become used to fairly high levels of corruption. Suddenly I saw that there in the US they seem still to respect their judges!! In that case there is hope yet, I thought and decided to read some 20 pages of the Trump book.

It simply, incredibly, looks very very  good right from the beginning, after the acknowledgements.

new computer, new keyboard, new Windows together make me waste about an hour a day
so I could read only 1 page of trump
it is as good as I thought, but so simple, simple, simple.
100 calls a day!
all for fun!
he says so.

the problem is not the computer, but the new Windows.
I cannot find my folders, right now not even what I wrote yesterday

They say his books were written by somebody else. Probably, but not what I have seen. I can tell from a mile. His writing is unique: faultless as to syntax,  nothing gratuitous, no vanities, no ironies.

But does he assume the kids must be taught to get rich and little else?
Right now  he is in the news for helping the millions of people who are afraid of the storm:
Quote: "Just get out of its path!"

Maybe this hurricane might show that Trump cannot deal with the sight or the facts of prolonged unhappines.
He could not lead in a war.

what do they do in big companies if a project turns sour?
They call in the bulldozers. That would be his solution, too.

Yet there was this surprise: I think he never went to a gym.
Strange!
It was when he walked away from a microphone and walked towards a corridor with the camera following him. He walks like --  an elderly statesman.

and elderly he is, but statesman he ain't, because he does not know that he does not know.

Sorry. I have been looking for a place where to explain not too conspicuously that yes, yes I am ill off and on as I have been on liquid oxygen for 7 years and from time to time things happen.

He is likable maybe because he is always spontaneous .. how do you spell that? on my old computer there were links to all the great dictionaries.  and now? the problem is that I am not yet very mobile, and everything is always out of reach.

He cannot plan. He acts under a moment's spur for some maximum response, good or bad, to get a great big issue going for the press. A little nuclear war so far away would be a great temptation. -- Yet it might get messy or lengthy, and that he cannot stand.  Sell it?
