Should have seen it coming. I would like to start with what was my personal favorite moment in the book which is the first meeting between donald trump and steve bannon who would become a very influential political strategist in his world where he explains to trump that he cannot if hes thinking of running for president he cant do it as a traditional republican.

The global cable newscast and he put it into action and institutionalized it. It was really truly remarkable. But it changed over time, as these things do. And we founded it in 1980. By 1984 ted was on the forbes most, you know, the wealthiest list and it been basically on the verge of bankruptcy just four years earlier when he founded it.
