Trump: "Make my name much bigger"

From The New Yorker:
The idea of Trump writing an autobiography didn’t originate with either Trump or Schwartz. It began with Si Newhouse, the media magnate (of) Advance Publications …
Newhouse called Trump about the project, then visited him to discuss it. Random House continued the pursuit with a series of meetings. At one point, Howard Kaminsky, who ran Random House then, wrapped a thick Russian novel in a dummy cover that featured a photograph of Trump looking like a conquering hero; at the top was Trump’s name, in large gold block lettering. Kaminsky recalls that Trump was pleased by the mockup, but had one suggestion: “Please make my name much bigger.”

    1. Don’t worry, Donald is gonna fix it. Right after he sorts out those NATO cheapskates. And the Muslims. And the Chinese. And the Mexican wall’s in place. Let’s see — what did I miss?

  1. “OH lord its hard to be Humble when your perfect in every way.” It is a great song. Maybe someone will add to it

  2. The construction fencing as shown in the photo suggests a great Public Art opportunity for the citizens of Vancouver to make their opinions known on the world stage in respect to Trump the would be demagogue. I suggest a Council sanctioned Public Art Ideas Competition for a screen approximately 50’x 50’ located at the edge of the Georgia Street right of way. Come on folks, “Make Vancouver Famous Again!”
