Here at TPM we’ve been wondering: how much is Donald Trump’s business being harmed and could the damage get severe enough that he’d shift gears and try to reverse the damage. We talked to the author of a soon-to-be-released biography of Trump to get some insight on that question. Check it out.
For me it’s a fascinating question because I think Trump really, really likes being not just rich but among the super rich. And I suspect he’d do anything not to face the humiliation of major financial reverses. But he’s arrogant and headstrong enough that I think it’s almost impossible to imagine him going into damage control or ‘crisis communications’ mode and begging forgiveness or trying to shift gears.
We shall see.
