The first 5 or so of Trump’s books. No meaningful lessons in business to be had. Just him bragging about people he knew, people he’d screwed over, how good he thought he was at pretty much everything. How he got back at anyone who crossed him. Insufferable. I knew he was one of the worst people ever before he even mentioned getting into politics.
And in those 5 books, he probably name-dropped every New York socialite he ever met. It’s consistent with his whole image of self-worth and needing to look and feel important. You know who he didn’t mention? Someone we’ve seen him with in several photos? Who he definitely would have mentioned if there wasn’t a reason not to? Jeffrey Epstein.

I have to ask what possessed you to not give up after the first couple
I already bought the books + it was like watching a car accident. I just couldn’t believe this guy was a successful businessman.
Spoiler: he wasn’t. It was “The Apprentice” that made his fortune, before that it was just him squandering an inheritance.
