Donald Trump gave his new book a 'nasty title' (Crippled America)
Business Insider ^

Posted on 10/07/2015 5:30:49 PM PDT by springwater13

Real-estate tycoon Donald Trump has a new book coming out: "Crippled America."

The Republican presidential candidate discussed how he named the book at a Wednesday campaign rally in Iowa.

"I was going to say the 'Make America Great Again Book.' Eh, it's too nice, because our country's in trouble," Trump recalled thinking. "Then I was going to say 'Greatness in America.' Then I said, 'It's too nice.'"

But then the business mogul said an angry photo of himself inspired a harsher title.

"Then I had a photographer come up. Then I said, 'Do you think I should be smiling?'" Trump said. "Then there was one picture that was just mean. It was a horrible, horrible, mean picture. Like a nasty-looking guy. ... I said, 'We're going to call it, 'Crippled America.' Because that's what it is. It's 'Crippled America.'"

Brilliant, un-PC title.

Wish he would have titled it “America Crippled By A Communist Kenyan”.

When he’s right, he’s so right.

This title is worth a few million in exposure by media.

Harsh title. Gotta give Trump credit for calling it like it is. The title is sure to attract attention. The question that will be asked of all candidates: do you think America is crippled? Trump certainly keeps things interesting.

So does this mean Ben Carson worked on the book?

Again he is right on target. It certainly is nothing to smile about.

You can’t say Trump is “out of touch” because he is the ONLY candidate who IS in touch with what concerned Americans are thinking.

Also props to The Donald for making it about America, not him.

Compare to:
“Dreams of my Kenyan Father” and “Audacity of Dope.”
