6. no attention span, unless HE's the subject

Tony Schwartz told Alan Colmes that he never planned to come forward as the author, but he felt he has a responsibility to tell his story, despite threats from the campaign. He also said that Donald Trump does not have a deep wealth of knowledge, mostly due to his incredibly short attention span, which he compared to “a 9-year old with ADHD,” and Donald Trump’s children are probably more capable than he is running a business.

I heard a clip on the radio today when, talking about his daughter's book from 09, he said that he only read the parts of the book that were about him!
