(535 posts)I would encourage them to apply that "thinking" to all areas of their lives, such as picking a surgeon or managing wealth. See if those things go better with a total lack of competency.

(7,596 posts)I just think he's pretty illiterate overall. I doubt he's done much writing throughout his life. Tony Schwartz confirmed he didn't write a single word of The Art of the Deal. He's misspells those words because he's bad at writing. He's an intellectually lazy buffoon, not some criminal mastermind.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
