In reply to the discussion: How does Trump do it? [View all]EleanorR
(2,397 posts)36. He's spent his entire life between failed marriages and failed businesses, in court, hogging the limelight
He has lawyers and others who do the work because he's intellectually lazy. So maybe he has to spend a little extra time yelling at them, but that's it. Running for president is just talking to crowds and in interviews and he loves that. That gives him energy, not the other way around. It's not like he's trying to learn what the job entails or brushing up on history or anything.
