can’t think of any who regularly went out of their way to humiliate people with childish nicknames.

There are no two ways about it. Trump is a bully.

By intimidating others, he believes he can get what he wants, not what is fair.

Trump remains fixated on his previous presidential rival years into his tenure,

we started to find the president’s chronic animosity toward her to be a little weird.

He has tweeted about Clinton hundreds of times since taking office.

Sadly, Trump’s past is rife with allegations of stiffed contractors, unpaid employees, broken agreements, and more.

The trail of broken contracts runs parallel to another Trump trait, his lack of generosity.

His philanthropic history is full of empty words and questionable practices.

In one instance, he used $10,000 in money from his charity to buy a six-foot oil portrait of himself.

A courageous person takes both credit and blame when they are the leader, yet Trump refuses to do the latter.

When his team loses, Donald Trump is nowhere to be seen.

If we were on the side that failed, the president did everything to avoid blame for fear of being labeled “the loser.”

The atmosphere created by his craven attitude is dispiriting to the team.

His “I’m not it” demeanor has been copied by those beneath him, creating a culture where people scurry away from problems to avoid shouldering the blame.

Scott Pruitt was remembered for this during his tenure as the head of the Environmental Protection Agency, where he blamed staff for his misuse of

government funds rather than take responsibility. He was ultimate...

At the height of the Vietnam War, when others were joining the US military to serve their country, he sought to avoid the draft. Trump received five deferments: four for education, one for medical reasons. The excuse? “Bone spurs” in his feet.

The injury was concocted, according to the daughters of the podiatrist who made the diagnosis, as well as the president’s former lawyer, who recounted Trump saying, “You think I’m stupid? I wasn’t going to Vietnam.”

Don’t fool yourself into believing this goes unnoticed by the men and women he commands in the United States military or the veterans who didn...

never be favorably compared, once warned, “If you set out to be liked, you would be prepared to compromise on anything at any time, and you would achieve nothing.”

The president’s craving for high approval ratings is ironic, because he does little to deserve them.

“I have made the tough decisions, always with an eye toward the bottom line.” “The point is that you can’t be too greedy.” “Part of the beauty of me is that I am very rich.” “You have to be wealthy in order to be great.” Trump’s love of money is second only to his love of luxury writ large.

When faced with tough challenges, he becomes unglued and bombastic.

Aides have stopped counting the number of press conferences, interviews, and events that have gone completely sideways because the president

is so unmoored by a problem, whether it is a personal spat or a negotiation with Congress.

When he is angry about an issue, Trump will let the frustration in his mind boil over, no matter wher...

Trump is one of the more offensive public figures in recent times. The president has difficulty showing restraint and lashes out without warning.

His behavior is quintessentially unseemly, from crude rhetoric and vulgar jokes to immodest public reactions.

Many in the Trump administration are put off by his misogynistic behavior, which began well before the election. How does Trump talk about women? Sex appeal. Beautiful piece of ass. Good shape. Bimbo. Great in bed. A little chubby. Not hot. Crazed. Psycho. Lonely. Fat. Fat ass. Stupid. Nasty woman. Dog. Ugly face. Dogface. Horseface. Disgusting.

Yet the president is notorious for his rash decision-making, as discussed throughout this book.

Trump boasts of making tough calls based on his “gut instincts” in the moment, rather than good information and a clear strategy.

Then there are the distractions. It’s no exaggeration to say we have a commander in chief who is channel-surfing...

The president, as has been amply documented, is obsessed with television, and segments he doesn’t like can derail entire workdays across the administration.
