Trump's ghostwriter calls "Art of the Deal" the greatest regret of his life

"I knew this was a bad guy when I did the book," Tony Schwartz told CBS News chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett for this week's episode of "The Takeout" podcast. The pair sat down for lunch at New York's ViceVersa restaurant.


"Trump is not only willing to lie, but he doesn't get bothered by it, doesn't feel guilty about it, isn't preoccupied by it," Schwartz said. "There's an emptiness inside Trump. There's an absence of a soul. There's an absence of a heart."

One has to admire the ghostwriter's honesty re: why he did it.
He sees now how he helped create, the savvy business image, Trump tries to portray.
His base, buying that image...unwittingly may have helped to put Trump in the WH.

You think Obama writes his own books?
The topic is Trump's ghostwriter...
Maybe you will enlighten us on Obama's... I would say most authors have proof readers.
If Obama had a ghostwriter... has he made a public declaration of apology yet?

I feel a bit lightheaded. Maybe you should drive.

The topic is Trump not writing his own book. Which, of course, is not news. I bet Trump's "ghost writer" hasn't made a "public declaration" that he is going to return his fee for the work, am I right?

It's in the read... MV put up.

Mr. Trump offered Schwartz $250,000 up front to write "The Art of the Deal," as well as half the book's royalties, which he is still getting today. Schwartz calls it "blood money" and has donated checks from the last 2.5 years to charity.

Good for him. I wonder why he took (and finished) the job in the first place.
