"An engrossing romp...hilarious...peppered with wit and irony...the
perfect base to Trump's acidic persona...an instructive
tongue-in-cheek primer for would-be Trumps." --Publishers
Weekly
"Entertaining...gets down and dirty...a myth-busting
biography."
--Kirkus Reviews
"Never having met O'Brien...I don't presume to know whether he's
having fun yet. But I doubt that I'm alone among members of the
Fourth Estate in experiencing a twinge of envy." --New Yorker
"Sarcastic at times, hilarious and irreverent at others, the book
demystifies the star of The Apprentice as the poor man's rich man
and portrays him as a potty-mouthed P. T. Barnum with a bad
comb-over." --Palm Beach Post
"Somewhere there is another country, far beyond the pale, known as
Bad Taste, and Trump has devoted his life to racing through it and
staking as many private claims as possible, pausing only to yodel
back to the homeland songs of himself." -- Michael Lewis, author of
Liar's Poker and Moneyball
"At the start of his career in hype and carnival barking, the press
fawned over Trump; he made great copy. It's refreshing that reality
has finally crept into the coverage." --Village Voice
"Dishes it...titillating...a revealing attempt to separate Trump
the reality from Trump the reality show."
--USA Today
"Highly entertaining." --The New York Times
