Donald's deal-making skills are a wonderful figment of his own imagination. [ ... ] His negotiating skill consists of screaming and threatening. Donald has no subtlety and no sense of humor. It’s bludgeon, bludgeon, bludgeon.
Architect and author Alan Lapidus on Donald Trump’s reputation as a negotiator. Quoted in the journal Foreign Policy.
Mr. Lapidus has known Trump since he was a teen. He worked for Fred Trump early in his career. About a year ago he spoke with Lake Region Television in Maine about his long association with Trump. Without giving any spoilers, it’s an engaging and frequently amusing presentation.
