    No deal? But I thought trump was a deal guy. I’m actually pretty sure that he claims to have written a book about the deal.

      He’s always talking about “deals” like he was ever really good at any of this, even on the bush-league level that he spent his life in.

      People keep forgetting that he just played a businessman on a game show he was given. His opinion of himself as some super-bigly deal-makin’ businessman is pure myth, and no one else should buy into his fantasy about himself.
