To Understand Trump, You Must Read "Art of the Deal"
1987 | Donald Trump

I've been reading "Art of the Deal" and it gives a lot of insight into how Trump operates. His bravado and bragging are strategic, they get results.

I highly recommend that people read it, whether they like Trump or not.

You read the other guy's book so you'll understand what he has done or is doing, and you can predict what he's likely to do next...so you can counter it.
Not in order to copy him (unless you're into trench warfare).

Interesting that Rommel was infantry - mountain infantry - who so successfully adapted to open terrain and tank warfare.
He was simply a very good leader with a fine grasp of tactics and use of force.
I think the "read his book" comment came from the Patton movie and meant that both had studied Nathan Bedford Forrest's career.

“He explains why ANY press is good press.”

You would think people would understand this by now.
