Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsJust have to share my favorite anecdote from Wolff's book, because it is soooo Trump.
Apparently he kept calling China's Xi "Mr. X-i" (i.e., Mr. ex-eye!!).
To help him remember how to pronounce Xi's name, they told him to imagine Xi as a woman and call him "she"!

that would be provoked by the joint press conference when Trump told the reporters what a "terrific" meeting he'd had with "Mr. X-i" over their beautiful chocolate cake?

Trump liked to say that one of the things that made life worth living was getting your friends wives into bed. In pursuing a friends wife, he would try to persuade the wife that her husband was perhaps not what she thought. Then hed have his secretary ask the friend into his office; once the friend arrived, Trump would engage in what was, for him, more or less constant sexual banter. Do you still like having sex with your wife? How often? You must have had a better fuck than your wife? Tell me about it. I have girls coming in from Los Angeles at three oclock. We can go upstairs and have a great time. I promise
And all the while, Trump would have his friends wife on the speakerphone, listening in.

At least some sections of it.
