24. No, they don't know how to handle him

He can't be handled. He's going to do what he wants and as he gets crazier and crazier, he will be even more outrageous than he is now.

I have the book. I got both the audio and hard copy, and I listened to the audio version for an hour or more today. One of the takeaways is that trump was easy to access. He was happy to talk to this writer because he was lonely. He could not, however, remember the questions from the previous session, so the author had to listen to a lot of stories numerous times. Sometimes he was worried he wouldn't get away from trump.

The author makes it very clear that all trump is in this for is the attention. He craves mass attention. He is going to have that whether the handlers want him to be in public or not.

The handler plan is not going to work.
