Ill go on TV anytime I g*dd*mn f*cking want!: Trump was screaming nightmare during 2016 campaign

A memoir by two former Trump 2016 officials paints then-candidate Trump as a hot-tempered, screaming tyrant with a bottomless appetite for junk food, said The Washington Post on Saturday.

The political neophyte frequently bucked his advisers’ directives and ran a chaotic operation beset by constant petty rivalries and failures of communication. Frequently, the former reality TV game show host would go on a screaming, bellowing “all-out assault” against whoever displeased him.

“Sooner or later, everybody who works for Donald Trump will see a side of him that makes you wonder why you took a job with him in the first place,” wrote former Trump 2016 officials Corey Lewandowski and David Bossie. “His wrath is never intended as any personal offense, but sometimes it can be hard not to take it that way. The mode that he switches into when things aren’t going his way can feel like an all-out assault; it’d break most hardened men and women into little pieces.”

One particularly vicious blowup came when Trump learned during a helicopter flight that then-campaign chairman Paul Manafort suggested that Trump should do fewer TV appearances and let him speak for the campaign.

Trump’s campaign: Big Macs, screaming fits and constant rivalries

By Michael Kranish December 2 at 4:00 PM

Elton John blares so loudly on Donald Trump’s campaign plane that staffers can’t hear themselves think. Press secretary Hope Hicks uses a steamer to press Trump’s pants — while he is still wearing them. Trump screams at his top aides, who are subjected to expletive-filled tirades in which they get their “face ripped off.”

And Trump’s appetite seems to know no bounds when it comes to McDonald’s, with a dinner order consisting of “two Big Macs, two Fillet-O-Fish, and a chocolate malted.”

The scenes are among the most surreal passages in a forthcoming book chronicling Trump’s path to the presidency co-written by Corey Lewandowski, who was fired as Trump’s campaign manager, and David Bossie, another top aide. The book, “Let Trump Be Trump,” paints a portrait of a campaign with an untested candidate and staff rocketing from crisis to crisis, in which Lewandowski and a cast of mostly neophyte political aides learn on the fly and ultimately accept Trump’s propensity to go angrily off message.

“Sooner or later, everybody who works for Donald Trump will see a side of him that makes you wonder why you took a job with him in the first place,” the authors wrote. “His wrath is never intended as any personal offense, but sometimes it can be hard not to take it that way. The mode that he switches into when things aren’t going his way can feel like an all-out assault; it’d break most hardened men and women into little pieces.”

When I saw it pop in my inbox, I said I better get me a big old bag of popcorn and some hot chocolate before I dive into this.

He is the literal walking, talking, breathing stereotypical caricature that is the nascent "Ugly American". But his behavior is also reminiscent of the 3-year old in a meltdown -

The thought of that makes me sick.

One of Hicks’s jobs was to make sure that Trump’s suits were pressed when they flew on his plane.

“?‘Get the machine!’?” Trump would yell, according to the book. “And Hope would take out the steamer and start steaming Mr. Trump’s suit, while he was wearing it! She’d steam the jacket first and then sit in a chair in front of him and steam his pants.”

One day, when Hicks forgot the steamer, Trump became angry.

“G--dammit, Hope! How the hell could you forget the machine?”

The authors wrote, “It was a mistake she would never make again.”




He has his mistress steaming his pants while he is still in them.

wouldn't want to take better care of himself. Of course, she didn't marry him for his looks. That McDonald's meal is 2750 calories, 119 g of fat and 3640 mg of sodium. Maybe he's trying to die of a heart attack before his dementia gets too bad.
