What am I in for? Are President Trump's other books any good?

>> No.9716846

>>9716793
It's honestly maybe 5/10 tops, and I say that as a Trump supporter. It reads like Trump talks, which is pretty self-explanatory assuming you hear Trump speak on a frequent basis. Even Schwartz said himself that the book isn't a good piece of writing. Now it just has a cult following for no real good reason other than because it has the word "Trump" on it.

>> No.9717624

>>9716846
Basically this. Although the second chapter is a pretty interesting breakdown of the dealmaking process.

>> No.9717629

>>9716846
The way Trump spoke in the 1980s was a lot more cogent than he does now. Just look at old clips from when he was testifying to Congress in 1991. You're going to need to explain more than that. Is there any systemic attempt to approach deal-making? Are the anecdotes informative, or at least entertaining? Do you glean any insight into the way Trump operates? There's an entire camp of people who believe the exact opposite of you, that Trump is terrible but this book is useful, so it would be nice if you did something better to contribute to the discussion.

>> No.9717662

>>9717629
As a real estate investor myself, I'm not sure how helpful the anecdotes are. They don't really go into detail, so you're left with platitudes. I'd get the audio book and listen to it, but I'd never waste the time reading it again.

>> No.9717668

>>9717629
Wow how douchey are you? If you're OP, I assume you already have the book (so read it).

If you're not OP, you should go ahead and buy the book.

You sound so entitled. Case in point:

>>You're going to need to explain more than that.

That anon doesn't "need" to do anything. He shared what he felt like sharing.

Nobody said that it was your prerogative in any sense but practical. But if you're not here to have a discussion, why did you bother participating in a discussion? I hate self-righteous faggots that try to debase conversations when somebody tries to hold them accountable for their opinions. Fuck off if you just want to hear the sound of your voice.

I think you're maximum projecting.
Again, I am NOT the anon you requested more information from.

>>But if you're not here to have a discussion, why did you bother participating in a discussion

1. Discussion is not demanding answers. It's discussion and asking questions like a normal, socialized human being.

2. I bothered participating because your obnoxiousness roused me to action.

>>I hate self-righteous faggots

Then you must hate yourself. Welcome to the club, brother.

>>debase conversations when somebody tries to hold them accountable for their opinions

What do you think we are discussing here? The Holocaust? How "accountable" should an opinion on Trump's Art of the Deal be in your estimation?

Your entitlement shines through the most in this sentence, because it involves an accusation that other people are "self-righteous" just as you describe your own lack of manners as an attempt to hold people "accountable" (again, for the Art of the Deal, no less).

>>Fuck off if you just want to hear the sound of your voice.

No you.

Also I can't hear my own voice on an Indonesian bootleg loudspeaker forum.

You won at one-player game of ruining the thread and looking like an absolute jackass. Congratulations, you're a living meme, and you're about to reach metastasis because the stench of Reddit is unbearable in your posts.

>you realize we're all on here for a reason right?

Your obsession with these memes is as silly as my use of them in derailing this thread and triggering you (which obviously succeeded).

I'm only posting again because the idea of you carrying on thinking I am a memester is kind of unbearable, which I am shamefully admitting is stupid, but still. Seriously dude, all that unloading I did was in good fun, but on a serious note you need to be a little more introspective in the sense that if you want to know what other people think, you shouldn't feel like they owe you anything. And this is all coming from a very serious and non-aggressive place. I'm not trying to "tone-police" since it's clear from my posts that I wrote insanity. It's more like a head's up.

Take care dude. Rest assured if there is another Art of the Deal post I will assume it is you and ruthlessly derail it. jk

Let go. That way leads to more suffering.

Keep typing more paragraphs. I'm sure you have nothing better to do than to troll because I'm sure nobody is authentically as cringy like our resident memester over here.

>you shouldn't feel like they owe you anything.
I don't think anybody owes people anything. I do believe in common sense though. Why post drivel when you can post something... complete?

>It's more like a head's up.
Your long-winded and belligerent "heads up" was unnecessary and did more to destroy the thread than any possible faux pas that I may have committed you fucking retard.
