Trumped!

The Inside Story of the Real Donald Trump - His Cunning Rise and Spectacular Fall

De: John R. O'Donnell, James Rutherford

Narrado por: Kevin Pierce

On top of the world ...in a house of cards

The tabloids tracked his every move. The business magazines predicted his demise. And the public couldn't get enough. But the only people privy to Donald Trump's real story were the members of his inner circle - men such as Jack O'Donnell, a top executive at Atlantic City's Trump Plaza Casino until April, 1990. For three years O'Donnell witnessed the goings-on in the House of Trump that the people only guessed at. Now he reveals what he saw.

Here's the inside story of Trump's legendary tirades, his convenient forgetfulness, and the infamous Donald Trump ego. O'Donnell tells how the Plaza staff catered to Trump's personal whims, and to those of his mistress - and how the man who built the largest gambling hall in the world knew little about running a casino.

From the hypocrisy, bad deals, and the monumental debt to the untold tales of Marla and Ivana, Trumped! rips the mask off the mighty Trump facade - revealing a man whose castle is about to collapse.

Interesting Listen About the REAL Trump

I thought this was a very insightful and interesting listen. Trump only just came out as the presumptive nominee and I knew that I had to listen and review this book when I got the chance. I'm still in awe that people could actually want this man to be the leader of a nation...

This book goes behind the scenes and gives another prospective to who Donald Trump REALLY is. That is, when he doesn't have teams of spokesmen, publicists, and campaign lackeys running behind him and justifying/clarifying/correcting everything he says.
Anyone interested in politics should definitely give this one a go.

I received a free copy of this audiobook from the author, publisher, or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review. I was NOT required to write a positive review and this reflects my honest opinion of the work.

Illuminating

In order to understand DJT or confirm what one might have imagined, this book rounds out the circle.

Forewarned!

Deja vu! Written years before Trump ran for office. It's exactly like everything in the book!

Leopard and spots!

Definitely revealing.

Worth my time. I am going to listen to it again. Hard to believe Trump became president.

Trump hasn’t changed...

Great depiction of the real Donald Trump... He is the same as ‘POTUS’ as he was the ‘DEAL MAKER’ - and just as inept in the one as the other... to the detriment of all of us who have/had to bear the brunt of his toxic presence. Can’t wait for his inevitable introduction to the real world.

excellent book

i thoroughly e enjoyed the book. show the character of the man and his behaviour. I felt pity for his employees as they ere badly treated. from the writing he did appear to be an astute businessman and it made him appear cold and calloused.

Chilling reveal, won’t be disappointed

This book reveals things about Trump that the public only see in glimpses. It tells a story of a true narcissist that is chilling. The rise & fall of one of Trumps most well known business ventures & his attempts to destroy other lives at all cost. Money, greed, lies & affairs it has it all. This book was hard to put down, it didn’t disappoint. It is no wonder that Trump fought so hard to attempt to stop this book from being written & published

Takes us into Trump's head

An in depth story of Trump's years in Atlantic City, intricately told by a right hand man who made much of it happen. A raw look at the volatile Trump of that era; and a very satisfying journey indeed.

Yes, the end in which he quit.

Any additional comments?

I worked for a crazy man who was ill tempered and lacked both character and integrity, just like DJT. His cruelty hurt hundreds of faithful people. Never again.

The Real Donald..

This book brought back many memories of the years I worked
at Trump Castle/ Marina. It frightens me to think this same person is the leader of our country. This book tells of Trump's dangerous personality. He will never admit to his mistakes. After all these years, he hasn't learned to treat people with respect. A very accurate account of how the Donald's personality functions. A good read.
