Trump's legendary negotiating skills are all legend, no fact.

Tony Schwartz, who wrote “The Art of the Deal,” admitted that he regrets writing the 1987 book and that he finds the thought of a Trump presidency “terrifying.”

“I put lipstick on a pig,” Schwartz told the magazine. “I feel a deep sense of remorse that I contributed to presenting Trump in a way that brought him wider attention and made him more appealing than he is.”

“You know, it’s a terrifying thing. I haven’t slept a night through since Donald Trump announced for president because I believe he is so insecure, so easily provoked and not — not particularly — nearly as smart as people might imagine he is,” he said.

He continued, “This is a man who has more sociopathic tendencies than any candidate in my adult life that I’ve observed.”

Schwartz said he wrote “every word” of “The Art of the Deal,” Trump’s part memoir and part business advice book, which held the No. 1 spot on the New York Times’ nonfiction best-seller list for 51 weeks.

“Donald Trump made a few red marks when I handed him the manuscript, but that was it,” he said.

the politicians may be miscalculating the efficacy of the border tax

a border tax to benefit boeing, which is currently competing against airbus on fairly even playing field, may trigger a backlash against boeing by overseas customers in favour of airbus

punishing walmart by X2 tax would only hurt the consumer but doubtful would bring back socks manufacturing to america-first shores

we will soon find out if the lot that apparently failed in healthcare can do better in tax reform
