Trump: "a man's man"

Trump discusses telling a friend who said his wife said he was “working too and too long and wasn’t devoting enough time or energy to her” to divorce his wife.

“If he doesn’t lose the ballbreaker, his career will go nowhere,” Trump wrote.




This wasn't that long ago folks. Most evolved men knew that this was a throwback, sexist thing to say by the end of the 1990s, much less something you'd put in a book with your name on it.

I would consider a good marriage and family life a "success," while Trump considers a large pile of money a "success." Money won't be holding your hand on your death bed.

As if it is all about him (the man). That's not a relationship at all. He just has trophy wives to look pretty and give him children. It sounds like he doesn't know how to have a relationship with a woman.
