Hi guys/Gals,
Long before Donald Trump won the White House he already wrote out a BluePrint in his Book called "THE ART OF THE DEAL"
And I quote this article below:
If you thought the American left couldn’t get any lower in their attacks on President Trump, think again.
Mimicking the abuse of psychiatry to target political opponents in the Soviet Union, liberals are now questioning Trump’s “mental fitness.” It’s easy to spot political bias at work, because these so-called “experts” never demanded a mental exam for Bill Clinton or any other Democrat in the White House. It’s easy to spot political bias at work because these so-called “experts” never demanded a mental exam for any Democrat in the White House, including Bill Clinton, whose behavior arguably resembled narcissistic personality disorder and other pathologies listed in the DSM.
Fortunately, a best-selling book published 30 years ago will help them understand that Trump’s thinking and behavior have remained remarkably clear, cogent, and consistent over many years.
That book is Trump: The Art of the Deal.
“The elements of the deal” that Trump laid out in his 1987 book precisely map his actions today.
Think big. “I like thinking big.” What could be bigger than making America great again? Washington politicians sought to manage what they believed was America’s inevitable decline. Trump beat them because he wasn’t afraid of winning and dared us all to think big and make America great again.
Maximize your options. The media couldn’t understand why candidate Trump held massive rallies in the supposedly “solid blue” states of Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin. He was maximizing his options to win — and win he did.
Know your market. Trump understands everyday Americans and speaks their language. Don Jr. calls his dad the “blue-collar billionaire,” and he’s right. He knows the needs and desires of America’s working men and women. The elites in the Washington media don’t get it, but the elites don’t elect the president (though they wish they did). The American people do.
Use your leverage. Trump is using America’s leverage to cut the United Nations budget, make NATO allies pay more for their defense, and get better deals with Mexico, China, Pakistan and other countries.
Enhance your location. Trump said he would make America the best place on earth to live, work, invest and do business. He cut taxes, withdrew from the Paris climate agreement and is renegotiating trade deals — all to restore America’s competitive edge and enhance our location.
Get the word out. While others would rely on an army of consultants, Trump uses Twitter to get the word out the same way he always has — by doing it himself. He wrote, “if you are a little different, or a little outrageous, or if you do things that are bold or controversial, the press is going to write about you.” Well, the press is still writing about him, but for some reason they act surprised that Trump is different and bold.
Fight back. No one can say they weren’t warned that Trump fights back very hard when something he believes in is threatened – he said so in The Art of the Deal. Candidate Trump beat 16 candidates in the most brutal primary in American history. Americans like a fighter, and proof that they got one when they elected Trump can be found in The Art of the Deal — and in the smoking ashes of the ISIS Caliphate.
Deliver the goods. Trump recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, nixed the TransPacific Partnership, withdrew from the Paris climate accord, cut taxes, rolled back the regulatory state, boosted the economy and crushed ISIS just as he said he would — because he’s always believed you must deliver the goods.
Contain the costs. It’s in his book and it explains Trump’s budget-cutting, regulation-slashing, bureaucracy-shrinking administration. He wrote, “I believe in spending what you have to. But I also believe in not spending more than you should.”
Have fun. The pundits can’t stand it when Trump tweets “little Rocket Man,” “my button is bigger than yours,” “Sloppy Steve,” “Sneaky Diane” and “Pocahontas.” When you’re fighting and winning, you’ve got to have fun while you’re doing it. That’s what Trump wrote back then, and that’s what he’s doing now.
Trump has arguably achieved more than anyone in American history — he became a billionaire who earned a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, ran for office for the first time and won the presidency against the odds with only a handful of people, a plane and a cell phone.
The left and the major media can’t grasp the genius of a man who is clearly above average and operating at a much higher level than what they know from their prior experience.
They don’t have to rely on dubious psychiatrists, witch doctors or psychics to understand how President Trump thinks.
All they have to do is read the book he wrote in 1987. It’s all right there before their eyes in The Art of the Deal.

Calvin comments:
These are some observations on Trump - an exceptionally intelligent man with IQ over 150. How Trump was a smart guy
1) He already wrote THE ART OF THE DEAL 30 years ago. Then he roped in Robert Kiyosaki and wrote another book called WE WANT YOU TO BE RICH. It started with the Doctrine of Greatness - to make America Great Again
2) Before a man could make his Nation Great he has to have BIG VISION. VISIONS THAT TRANSFORM SETBACKS INTO SUCCESS
3) TRUMP Saved A City First Before he attempted to Save A Nation

Long before Donald Trump stamped his name in gold on buildings around the world, posted snarky midnight tweets and joined the race for the White House, he was New York’s most important and bravest real-estate developer.
Whatever you think about his political views or crazy campaign, Trump doesn’t get enough credit for being a transformative planner who is in love with the city.
No matter how many times they watch “Taxi Driver,” younger New Yorkers and older ones who arrived recently have no idea of what the city was actually like in the mid-1970s through the mid-’90s. Notwithstanding Studio 54 and a short-lived Wall Street boom, the metropolis was reeling. Rampant street crime, AIDS, corporate flight and physical decay brought confidence to an all-time low.
Trump waded into a landscape of empty Fifth Avenue storefronts, the dust-bowl mugging ground that was Central Park and a Wall Street area seemingly on its last legs as companies moved out.
Except in Battery Park City, which was then as remote as an offshore island, few other developers built anything but plain-vanilla office and apartment buildings. Trump — almost by force of will — rode to the rescue. Expressing rare faith in the future, he was instrumental in kick-starting the regeneration of neighborhoods and landmarks almost given up for dead.
Many of his brainstorms were ahead of their time. Some — like his struggle beginning in the early 1970s to build what’s now called Riverside South — were so far ahead, it can be hard to connect the dots between Trump’s works and the neighborhood transformations they spawned and inspired years later.
His brick-and-mortar milestones are lost on those who know him mainly as a cartoonish TV personality, or are weary of his self-promotion and his omnipresent name on hotels, golf courses and casinos around the world.
Trump himself is largely to blame for being a prophet without honor in his home city. He grew weary of the risky, time-consuming development grind and started selling his name to just about any developer willing to sign a check. The result was horrible projects like the Trump Soho Hotel which he neither built nor owns.
His disastrous foray into Atlantic City casinos — Why, Donald? — his tacky promotion of China-made shirts and ties among other goofy ventures further cheapened his name.
The regrettable result is that Trump’s true legacy is obscured in pointless scrutiny of what he “really owns” and schadenfreude over setbacks such as losing the Plaza Hotel and the Riverside South complex which he brought into being. (Trump was a better developer than he was a dealmaker, his books on the subject to the contrary.)
A more enlightened yardstick would measure what Trump created and how the projects lifted all boats around them. It’s time to commemorate them before he’s lost to the presidency — or to the mercy of late-night TV comedians.
Here’s a look at Trump’s game-changing Manhattan monuments and their legacies.
Trump’s least-appreciated accomplishment, the 16-building complex including a new public park along the Hudson River from West 59th-72nd streets is too often called a Trump failure. He scaled down his original master plan over community opposition; he needed partners to bankroll it; and then, deep in debt, sold out to other developers. But Trump created Riverside South, home to over 10,000 people on a former rail yard site. He acquired land rights in the 1970s; finessed a zoning change from development-averse mayor David Dinkins in 1992; and built the site’s first seven towers. They’re emblazoned with his name for good reason.
This was the first project to reclaim Columbus Circle from the vagrants. The hated former Gulf + Western Building needed a new skin and a new image. The owners tapped Trump to figure out how. His gleaming glass facade and all-new interior yielded an Upper West Side gateway edifice. Luxury condos sold out, the hotel was hailed as among the city’s best, and Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s flagship restaurant drew gourmands from around the world. Its success paved the way for Time Warner Center and the Museum of Arts and Design.
Although the Central Park Conservancy had begun to restore ruined sections of the crime-ridden park, the long-closed ice rink remained a gaping black hole. The city couldn’t finish it after six years of work, and there was no end in sight. Trump rebuilt it in a few months in part to embarrass his nemesis, Mayor Ed Koch. But its impact transcended personality by drawing families and kids to the heart of the park’s “postcard” southern end.
The landmark Art Deco masterpiece was a vacant, ruined hulk when Trump bought it for a token $1 million. Companies were fleeing the financial district’s obsolete old towers at the time. Trump’s restoration and marketing savvy swiftly drew tenants and stabilized the area — an inspiration that helped put the area back on its feet in the years before 9/11.
Third Avenue north of Bloomingdale’s was a lost highway of tenements and boxy, bland apartment buildings after the el was torn down in the 1950s. Trump’s 39-story, trefoil-shaped co-op tower of limestone, glass and shimmering bronze boasted a welcoming retail base which respected the classic Manhattan “street wall” — repudiating pedestrian-hostile setback design which was then in vogue. It inspired four more similarly configured towers on the avenue and lent some badly needed class to uptown east of Lexington Avenue.
The condo spire rising 90 stories on First Avenue near the UN was at first detested for its height (and for blocking neighbors’ views). But the bronze glass monolith earned praise from architectural critics. Its impact went beyond looks. Its creative merger of property lots zoned for different uses was unprecedented at the time. Its appeal to the globetrotting rich presaged era-defining later projects like 15 Central Park West and 432 Park Ave.
As the city descended into an abyss of crime and corporate flight, nobody thought of erecting a new skyscraper on Fifth Avenue — except Trump. It perfected the three-way, mixed-use model: condo apartments, office floors and a shopping atrium. An immediate hit with the public, it shone as a beacon of hope for “the world’s greatest shopping street,” which was increasingly full of phony antique dealers and empty storefronts. Trump’s vision would be vindicated years later when the avenue recaptured its old glory.
An X-rated “massage parlor” stood in the lobby of the gloomy Commodore Hotel — symptomatic of East 42nd Street’s decline. Trump, the hotel project’s prime mover, replaced the brick facade with curtain-wall glass, designed a modern high-end hotel inside and made it attractive for tourism and business. It arrested the street’s tailspin and set the stage for Grand Central Terminal’s restoration in the 1990s.
What are some interesting highlights:
1) TRUMP TOWERS was built opposited UN HQ
To create value this is what TRUMP did
a) He bought an apartment Block opposite UN HQ
b) He planned to make it the Tallest Condo Tel in that area.
c) To prevent others from building taller than him he "secretly bought up air space" rights all in front, left & right and behind TRUMP TOWER
d) Example: a 10 storey building could be torn down and rebuild to 50 storeys (so there is an airspace right of 40 storeys. Since most of the owners have n intention of building higher they thought TRUMP is "nut" to buy their airspace rights & sold TRUMP their rights for a song.
They did not know that TRUMP will build the GRANDEST, TALLEST TOWER opposite UN HQ one day that command the BEST UNBLOCKED VIEWS & SELLING FOR EXCEPTIONAL PRICES!!
The last few who knew the secret asked for much higher prices for their airspace rights. And Donald gladly paid them
Because a room with a view has always been preferable to one without, the price of air in
2) TRUMP KNEW WHERE TO GET HIS VOTES - IN THE BIBLE BELT OF CHRISTIAN FUNDAMENTALIST CHURCHE
Bible Belt States
There is no universal definition of the "Bible Belt". However, the term is usually used to describe areas of the following states: Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, South Carolina, Kentucky and usually North Carolina as well.
This is where Donald's succint message hammered home:
America First
American Jobs for Americans
No TPP to contain China. Not containment but confrontation. It will be tax on Imported goods from China to protect American businesses.
Make Jerusalem the Capital of Israel as predicted in the Holy Bible
3) AND MORE TO COME:
a) REDUCE TAXES FROM 35% to 21% FOR US COMPANIES (A USD1.5 TRILLIONS SAVINGS FOR COMPANIES) Stock prices jumped up!
b) APPLE Bringing back USD300 BILLIONS & in Total USD2 TRILLIONS FRom US Oversea Funds back to the US. Dow now on fire!
c) PROJECTED USD1.5 TRILLIONS FOR US INFRAR WORKS
Dow Jones gone up in a frenzy. In short space of just 1 year Dow Jones up from 18,000 points to 26,000 points (Up 44%)
So this correction is only a blip.
d) TRUMP is a Businessman Par Excellence
Don't bet against TRUMP that USA will go into another Great Depression
When Great Speculator George Soros bet against TRUMP The Businessman Par Excellence - George Soros lost!
See
Hedge fund legend George Soros lost a lot of money after the election of Donald Trump, according to a new report from The Wall Street Journal.
The Journal’s Gregory Zuckerman and Juliet Chung cited people familiar with Soros’ trading who said the billionaire became bearish after Trump’s the victory, and those bets seem to have come back to bite him.
However, Soros’ larger fund, Soros Fund Management, gained 5% over the year, according to the Journal.
4) USA ALREADY USD21 TRILLIONS IN DEBT
And Congress has just approved another USD300 Billions for Govt Expenses
5) So What's Next?
Answer:
A) STOCK MARKET BULL RUN AND DOW RESUME UPTREND TO 30,000 POINTS INDEX
B) STOCK MARKET CONTINUES TO CRASH AND GO INTO GREAT DEPRESSION
C) MARKET REMAINS STATUS QUO. IMPASSE DUE TO BALANCE OF FEAR AND GREED
SO WITH FED PRINTING & PRINTING FIAT MONEY BY INFINITY CURRENCIES WILL CONTINUE TO LOSE ITS REAL VALUE
WILL WE SEE HYPERINLATION THIS ROUND (1997/8 - MARKET CRASHED: 2007/8 SUBPRIME CRASH
The Irony of a Billionaire Starving?
