....They’re very good at stopping any illegal alien prototypes. … I don’t know why we need prototypes, except that it’s all just a fakeout and the whole thing about building a wall is just ‘I’m going to get four years saying I’m going to build the wall and inspecting prototypes, but I’ll never actually build the wall.’ … No, it’s a ridiculous waste of time.....

In one story in The Art of the Deal, Trump brags about lying to investors about the progress he was making on a project. The investors were coming to inspect and virtually nothing was started. He quickly rented a bunch of backhoes and dump trucks and told them to 'move a bunch of dirt around' to make it look like they were working when the investors came by.

Ironically, this is one of his projects that went under.

Did In Trump We Trust ever make it above #75 on the Amazon list?  It's #50,827 at this point.

I can't make up my mind -- I keep thinking about Burt Lancaster and Robert Preston.  I think President Trump may be more like Lancaster in "The Rainmaker".  But I'm hopeful he may turn out more like "The Music Man."

@Right_in_Virginia What do you think?  If you had to pick?  Or do you have a different musical in mind ;)?

Anyone who bought that book has a few screws loose.
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

More like Lancaster in Elmer Gantry.

A charlatan of the first order......... totally untrustworthy.

Does it have to be a Musical? How about George C. Scott in "The Flim-Flam Man"? It has a nice ring to it.

@LauraTXNM - Lancaster in Rainmaker and Preston in Music Man are far too lovable for the comparison, IMO.

@Right_in_Virginia  I know, sorry for the hijack ;)!  I love old(er) movies, and no one else I know cares about them.  So which movie would you pick for President Trump?

@EasyAce  That's fantastic!  I wish Groucho Marx and Will Rogers were around today.  HL Mencken, too.
