for businesses where people with actual skills did all the work. Trump doesn't know how to build a building. His role was to buy stuff at too high a price to make a profit, figure out ways to cheat on taxes and stiff workers, and pick out the upholstry for furniture and where to put the gold leaf.

Mary Trump was assigned to write about him when she was younger. She told him, "I don't know what you do."
