Chapter 9 in the Taking Back Trump's America Serialization

American Carnage, Cheap Seats, & A Cabinet of Clowns

Americans want great schools for their children, safe neighborhoods for their families, and good jobs for themselves. These are the just and reasonable demands of a righteous public.

But for too many of our citizens, a different reality exists: Mothers and children trapped in poverty in our inner cities; rusted-out factories scattered like tombstones across the landscape of our nation; an education system, flush with cash, but which leaves our young and beautiful students deprived of knowledge; and the crime and gangs and drugs that have stolen too many lives and robbed our country of so much unrealized potential.

This American carnage stops right here and stops right now.

President Donald John Trump, Inauguration Day, 2016⁵⁵

This cold, damp, and dreary Inauguration Day would turn out to be, hands down, the worst day of my entire Trump tour – and I can assure you here that there were some very bad OTHER days.

Like the day John Kelly told me I had to report to Gary Cohn and cc every one of my emails to one of the biggest rectal cavities I have ever met. Like the day I was told that the Chief Executive Officer of Kodak had likely engaged in insider trading and thereby killed the best deal I have ever done in my life – one which would have established America’s independence in essential medicines manufacturing. And yes, like the day Larry Kudlow got appointed to replace Gary Cohn as the Director of the National Economic Council. I could go on and on.

Two days earlier, a new demon had entered my life via email with some beyond devilish news. That demon came by the name of Rob Porter in the corporal form of a man who President Trump himself might have said, as he often did, “was right out of central casting.”
