Mary, on the other hand, gives us an early glimpse that the adult Donald is no more dedicated a reader than he was when he was younger and allegedly paid someone else to take his SAT exams for him. As someone who has written books for Random house, I particularly enjoyed the scene when Trumps Random House editor takes her out to lunch to fire her as her uncle's underpaid ghostwriter, and the following exchange occurs.
Donald told me he likes what Ive done so far, I said. The editor looked at me as if Id just proven his point for him. Donald hasnt read any of it, he said.
Mary is relieved to be fired, Bolton expresses a similar sentiment as he hands in his resignation letter. Its like the only thing worse than being fired by the guy with the youre fired catch phrase is having to work for him.
The fundamental patheticness of the guy who pretended to be his own press secretary, the tacky guy with showy hotels begging the world to love him is in full display in both books. Bolton talks about how Trump would "in effect, give personal favors to dictators he liked, in order to further curry favor with them. For Trump the difference between a fascist dictator and a celebrity he wanted to befriend was nothing at all.
Here is how Mary describes her uncle: Besides being driven around Manhattan by a chauffeur whose salary his fathers company paid, in a Cadillac his fathers company leased to 'scope out properties,' Donald's job description seemed to have included lying about his 'accomplishments' and allegedly refusing to rent apartments to black people.
Both books show a president with no moral compass, in Boltons massive opus of self-justification, he chronicles President Trump encouraging President Xi of china to build concentration camps "According to our interpreter," Mr. Bolton wrote, "Trump said that Xi should go ahead with building the camps, which Trump thought was exactly the right thing to do." Yes, Bolton alleges that Trump signed off on the concentration camps and hoped that Xi would help him with his reelection.
Mary Trump notes that His pathologies have rendered him so simple-minded that it takes nothing more than repeating to him the things he say to and about himself dozens of times a dayhe's the smartest, the greatest, the bestto get him him to do whatever they want, whether it imprisoning children in concentration camps, betraying allies, implementing economy-crushing tax cuts, or degrading every instruction thats contributed to the united states rise and flourishing of liberal democracy.
