The look of hurt on his face when someone asked a question about Iran instead of the ballroom was priceless

Compilation of Trump lies about Endless War.

"Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, a professor at the Yale School of Management who is one of the nation's premier CEO whisperers, is out today with "Trump's Ten Commandments: Strategic Lessons from the Trump Leadership Toolbox," including "Reducing Complexity to Simplicity" and "The Role of Grandeur, Image, and Heroic Aura."

Why it matters: "Like him, loathe him, or try in vain to look past him, Trump is the most consequential leader on the planet right now," Sonnenfeld told me. The professor calls his book an "objective leadership analysis by [someone] who has known him for a quarter century."

Sonnenfeld met Trump in 1992. The mogul's trademark seduction began: The two later conversed at Trump Tower, over lunch at one of Trump's golf clubs, at the Connecticut home of Larry Kudlow, and at a Sonnenfeld CEO summit at the Waldorf Astoria in Manhattan.

Based on all those years of studying Trump, Sonnenfeld says the tactics include "divide and conquer, the sleeper effect of constantly repeating false information with unshakable confidence, starting negotiations by giving the other side a bloody nose rather than a handshake of trust, centralizing all power [in your own hands], personal grandiose branding on everything."

The bottom line: "The key insight about how Donald Trump leads is that he is the sun around which all else must revolve in the Trump solar system," Sonnenfeld concludes. "Power must not reside in institutions, collectives, or equals; all power must radiate from Trump himself. If he is not at the center of an event, then in his retelling, it is not important, or it did not happen."

"President Trump last night unveiled the first renderings of the presidential library he plans to build on prime Miami real estate after he leaves office.

A nearly two-minute video on Truth Social depicts it towering over the city's existing skyscrapers, suggesting the shrine could become the tallest building in South Florida.

The mock-ups show space for an Air Force One 747 jet, a Marine One helicopter and several other aircraft.

Plans also include a large golden statue of Trump in an auditorium (pictured below) and a golden escalator reminiscent of the one the president famously descended in 2015 at Trump Tower in Manhattan."

So are you saying he also missed the mark on analyzing the inner Trump?

Yes. That "Trump leadership toolbox" has driven his tenure into the ground just one year into his second mandate, not much of a leader.

Trump leadership toolbox in action:

I guess it shows my bias against Trump because I interpreted that author's analysis as the perfect recipe for a meteoric rise and a meteoric fall.

If the author thinks his analysis compliments Trump, then he is as bat sh@it crazy as his subject because that play book has had no positive outcomes in history.

He's without a doubt, the most DISGUSTING President in my Lifetime.

Zero ethics. Zero integrity. Zero morals.
EVERYTHING is a "transaction" to him.

The people that still support him are just as pathetic.
Completely lost.

If only he knew how much you hated him, he'd have a great big chuckle

Nobody, not even the useful idiots repeating Iranian propaganda here, can claim that Trump didn't warn them.

The Cult is over.

Is it TACO TUESDAY today?

It's hard to keep up with his constant drivel even when you are connected to the news covering the financial markets.
We are talking about a guy that flip-flops from week to week and plays the "victim" like a liberal snowflake.

He repeatedly berates our Allies.
Then cries like a Baby when they don't want to have anything to do with opening the Strait back up.

A week ago, he floated a "balloon" via his advisors that the Straits didnt have to re-open.
He confirmed this position by saying that re-opening will be up to other countries that have more to lose economically.

Yesterday, he came back to requiring that Iran open up the Strait if there is any deal to be reached.

Wash, rinse, repeat.

This isn't 3D chess.
He's mentally ill.

In case you haven't noticed, Biden has not been the guy with the nuclear button for nearly two years now.

But I was told here that Biden was to blame for high grocery and gas prices.
And a big budget deficit.

Very aware, thank goodness. He would have pushed it by now thinking he was calling for more coffee or dinner.

I'm pointing out the blatant hypocrisy in these posts.
