Who really wrote Art of the Deal?
http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2016/07/25/donald-trumps-ghostwriter-tells-all
The answer seems to be a guy by the name of Tony Schwartz?
In the New Yorker, Tony Schwartz claims that he wrote all of the tome entitled: THE ART OF THE DEAL. He also claims he received half of the up front monies as well as half of the residuals via provisions contained in the original contract with the publisher.
Basically, Tony Schwartz believes that T-Rump is an idiot and that he also believes that he should never have been involved in the project in the first place. hahahaha
This New Yorker article is a wonder to behold.
Schwartz believes that Trump’s short attention span has left him with “a stunning level of superficial knowledge and plain ignorance.” He said, “That’s why he so prefers TV as his first news source—information comes in easily digestible sound bites.” He added, “I seriously doubt that Trump has ever read a book straight through in his adult life.” During the eighteen months that he observed Trump, Schwartz said, he never saw a book on Trump’s desk, or elsewhere in his office, or in his apartment...
...
Trump’s first wife, Ivana, famously claimed that Trump kept a copy of Adolf Hitler’s collected speeches, “My New Order,” in a cabinet beside his bed. In 1990, Trump’s friend Marty Davis, who was then an executive at Paramount, added credence to this story, telling Marie Brenner, of Vanity Fair, that he had given Trump the book. “I thought he would find it interesting,” Davis told her. When Brenner asked Trump about it, however, he mistakenly identified the volume as a different work by Hitler: “Mein Kampf.” Apparently, he had not so much as read the title. “If I had these speeches, and I am not saying that I do, I would never read them,” Trump told Brenner.
I read about this Hitler thingy before, but since T-Rump rarely reads anything, I am less worried. Although i always assume that T-Rump's heart is in the wrong place.
One salient feature of this long essay involves the chief editor of Random.
Schwartz notes that when this publisher was asked about the contributions for THE ART OF THE DEAL:
Trump never contributed so much as a post card. hahahah
Now you must think about this comment from Warner Brooks.
Nowadays, Tweets include about 140 characters.
Postcards include about 140 characters in the old days.
So the publisher was certainly wrong about T-Rump's abilities. Because The Donald can issue 140 character Tweets all night long.

TRUMP'S HAIR
http://gawker.com/is-donald-trump-s-hair-a-60-000-weave-a-gawker-invest-1777581357
This is really really a strange expose. I cannot stop laughing. There evidently was some process by which the perpetrator talked someone into letting them use the hairs that were left upon the skull to be weaved into some strange animal hair type of thingy. ahahahsah
T-Rump denied the entire drift of the article but:
*Editor’s note: This post has been corrected to reflect the fact that during the time when Ivari International was located on the 25th floor of Trump Tower, Donald Trump’s personal office was one floor above, on the 26th.
TRUMP'S LAWSUITS
No individual who has ever run for dogcatcher, let alone run for President of the United States of America, has ever been involved in so many civil suits:
1900 as a Plaintiff
1450 as a Defendant
150 involving bankruptcies
And remember, some of the plaintiffs in these suits involve Attorneys General and such. hahahaha
http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2016/06/01/donald-trump-lawsuits-legal-battles/84995854/
And who cares about baseless suits like the one against Maher?
Trump has appeared to have proved that he is not the son of an Orang Utan. hahahah Of course that suit was dismissed in a very short time.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIwmGoFNBMI
Yet his suit was dismissed as fast as the suit against Al Franken was dismissed involving Billo as plaintiff in that suit.
http://www.cnn.com/2003/LAW/08/22/fox.franken/
It took thirty minutes for a Federal Judge to dismiss that silly suit.
BACK TO 1990
Nobody but nobody attacks The Donald like Vanity Fair
http://www.vanityfair.com/magazine/2015/07/donald-ivana-trump-divorce-prenup-marie-brenner
T-Rump's first wife was forced to sign some prenuptual agreement wherein she would receive 20 grand a year in the event of divorce. hahahahahahah
Later on in this essay, we are told that Ivana was offered $10,000,000.00 dollars in a 'renewed' prenuptual agreement. hahahahah
There are no prenups allowed following nups. hahahahah
Anyhow, by this time T-Rump had attached himself to a new concubine named Mala (The Donald does not like domestic stock, evidently) and....
Ivana went ahead and stole him blind anyway, so what the hell?
Anyway, this journalist finishes is diatribe with this remark:
I thought about the last questions Donald Trump had asked me the day before on the telephone. “How long is your article?” “Long,” I said. Trump seemed pleased. “Is it a cover?” he asked.
Priebus says:
I think people want to like him?
Or I might see a bad moon on the rise:
Oh I have to add one more Credence. hahahahah:
Comments
Oh I must include this from Slate:
I mean 141 things said by this idiot in the last few years?

One more for the road.
When my 12 year old grandson picked up an award this spring from the University of South Florida for his score on taking the ACT college entrance exam, the speaker pointed out that 40% of the medical doctors have an under grad degree in music. So if you wanted to go into medicine you should study music in college.
You will never guess who this is?
Dr. Jill Stein.

Oh Cville, now you got me laughing.
hahahhahahahaha
I will get by, even with all the T-Rumps in this universe.
We shall all survive.
Oh Cville I was thinking about you.
The power went out for about two hours the other day and so I had no lights, and no tv and no....
But without internet, I had these photos I had evidently downloaded.
And here is my youngest granddaughter, probably at about 2 weeks or 4 weeks with no control over her extremities, as it were, giving her middle finger to the photographer.
I told my son to sell the pic and put the money into trust for the kids.hahahahahah
by Richard Day on Tue, 07/19/2016 - 9:07am
But Trump wouldn't even read the title....so what bimbos don't know what is plagiarism...look it up it isn't in the definition....anyway Michelle and Hillary plagiarized her, Donald will take care of them, that judge, that mouthy woman on that court, 11 million rapers, ISIS, liberals, that Canadian faker and get all the bad guys..clean out the lavoratories, and blow up the economy, Benghhhazzi, the rest of the Middle East and the deficit sky high........she loves Donald and Donald loves Murica so much it hurts, or will hurt...and he wants to keep it safe like GW Bush did - he has all the same plans and same advisors....AND BUILD THAT DAMN WALL THAT MCcAIN DREAMED ABOUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hah! What's up Dick?
Your original question: "Who really wrote Art of the Deal?"
Yes you're right not dumpT-rump... And most likely he didn't pay what was originally agreed on for the ghostwriter's time and effort.
Have you see this one?

Hi Ducky!
I just read your link and it sickened me.
My take?
GET YOUR MONEY UP FRONT IF YOU DECIDE TO SUBCONTRACT WITH T-RUMP.
HA

I had the opportunity to see Tony Schwartz on Bill Maher.
This is astounding:
Tony shows up at about 22 minutes in.

Another list, this time from Slate citing over 100 reasons not to vote from T-Rump.
