Finding Trump’s Book in Dad’s Bookshelf as a Child

Saturday, 21st.

12 am

Me too! I found Trump's book in my dad's bookshelf in his master bedroom. I was just looking through my huge, fat "Dog Guide" book, about my then golden retriever. When my eyes caught this title, "How to think big and kick ███". I haven't ever heard of Trump, didn't know who he was. But to me, as a wee minor, who was big on "bad words". And loved Eminem's "███ Like That" or songs like this, hip hop rap. I just thought that's so ███████ cool and grabbed it. Later, obviously, Art of the Deal, became the big one for me, and the basis for my own diary. Along with Lee Kuan Yew's from third world to first. But it was Trump's work which made a strong imprint.

And those two sort of fell in love here

And Rosie O Donnell and Meg Ryan love it too
