'Art of the Deal' co-author: Trump would act like Kim Jong Un if he had the same powers
Tony Schwartz, the author who ghostwrote President Trump's famous 1987 book "The Art of the Deal," said Saturday that the president would act like North Korean leader Kim Jong Un if he were given the same authority.
Schwartz, who has been highly critical of Trump's political career, accused the president of possessing the "lack of conscience," "sociopathy" and "inner sense of emptiness" to go down the road of a dictator if he were permitted to do so.
"If Trump had the power that Kim Jong Un does...and the lack of consequence if he, quote, 'breaks the law,' I believe that Trump would be murdering as many enemies as Kim Jong Un does," Schwartz said on MSNBC's "AM Joy."
Schwartz's comments came days after Trump met in Singapore with Kim, marking the first such summit between a sitting U.S. president and a North Korean leader in history.
