Publisher's summary

America is in serious trouble, and our days as a superpower are numbered, argues businessman and entrepreneur Donald J. Trump in his blockbuster new book.

"Our nation has become a whipping post for the rest of the world. It’s time to get tough on China and other countries that are methodically and systematically taking advantage of the United States," says Trump. "We need to get serious about the debt, we need to get serious about oil, we need to get serious about job creation, and we need to get serious about our country’s future." With his trademark candor and charisma, Trump reveals his hardline, commonsense solutions to the problems plaguing us today and shows how we can put our country back on the path to greatness.

Nobody is better at achieving spectacular success than Donald Trump. Here, Trump shows how America can do the same.

Prophetic

Every American should hear this book. Much of the issues Trump raises are more relevant than ever today.

Trump heard me!!!

If you could sum up Time to Get Tough in three words, what would they be?

We need him.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Trump

Which character – as performed by Malcolm Hillgartner – was your favorite?

Trump

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It made me laughing out loud as though he had heard what I was saying over these past few years about this country .

Any additional comments?

Summing up the bottom line of this book----Trump and I shared identical views-----I have exactly the same comments, complaints and solutions about fixing this country. I am a first generation immigrant, I am female, I am a racial minority (Chinese), a mother, a wife and a lawyer. What he has proposed makes sense, we must execute his plans ASAP to save this great nation it once was.

Pertinent Today

Trump is as valid today on national and world topics as he was in 2015 when he brought this book to us. Moving forward!

top notch book

What did you love best about Time to Get Tough?

I enjoyed Donald Trump's answers to get our country back to being #1 in the world.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Time to Get Tough?

Take the oil.

Have you listened to any of Malcolm Hillgartner’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

None

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Saving America

Any additional comments?

I wish Donald would have spent more time explaining his previous bankruptcy experiences. I also would have liked him to go into more detail about how he would overcome the resistence that would happen to our president when that president takes the oil or institutes a 25% tariff on China.

Consistently honest!!

I just finished this work in the Summer of 2015, and America is still struggling with the exact same issues discussed herein...and more! The Donald says everything Americans have been thinking! Time to get Tough proved that Donald Trump is exactly who he says he is.

If you are tired of being let down politicians and their phony bologna, then read this book! I think you will be energized by the author all the way through!

The difference between Trump and all the others running for president of the USA is that he CAN and -more importantly- WILL do what he's says.

Yes, it IS time!

I've listened to this and one other book by Donald J. Trump, and am beginning to learn the mind of this truly great American. I will read/listen to every single book he has written/co-written because there is no better way to learn how a winner thinks than to read his/her thoughts.

God bless President Trump

You may not like the man but he was a great president! I personally liked him but I just want him to do his job I don't have to like him. Even liberals hate to admit they miss him!

Exactly what he did

It is incredible that he wrote this in 2011, got elected in 2016 and held as true as he could to his suggestions listed and detailed in this book. Wow!
