Trump Sent Me This Second Message

Do I look like a president? How handsome am I, right? How handsome? I think I look real good. I mean, I think I look like a president. My popularity? Honestly, it's my looks. I'm very handsome.

Dear Georges,

Following my previous message to you, I want to stress to you all the main features of my campaign for President of the United States of America.

My international policy is to destroy ISIS with nuclear weapons

ABC, CBS and NBC deluged viewers with more than five times more coverage -- 25 minutes and 35 seconds versus 4 minutes and 41 seconds -- to my "Second Amendment people" remark than they did to the father of an ISIS-inspired terrorist sitting right behind Clinton at a rally in Orlando, Florida. I know more about ISIS that the US Generals. Obama and Clinton are the co-founders of ISIS. I would bomb the shit out of ISIS.

We have nuclear weapons, why can't we use them? We should not stop nuclear proliferation. I might use nuclear weapons in Europe. I have been trying to think of how we could conceivably use a nuclear weapon in the Middle East or in Europe in fighting ISIS. Where can you -- and why put it on the table or leave it on the table - if you can't imagine where to use it?

The European Union was created to beat the United States when it comes to making money. I would withdraw [America's] military support for Japan, encourage them to get nuclear weapons. I think NATO may be obsolete. NATO was set up a long time ago, many, many years ago. Things are different now. We're paying too much. I will only defend NATO members that would be attacked by the Russians is they have fulfilled their obligations to us. The countries we are defending must pay for the cost of this defense. And if not, the U.S. must be prepared to let these countries defend themselves Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press. I want to build a Trump Tower near the Red Square. Moscow right now in the world is a very, very important place. We wanted Moscow all the way.

In the old days, when we won a war, to the victor belonged the spoils. Keep the oil. Keep the oil. Keep the oil.

Leadership and narcissism

Leaders succeed because they are narcissists who devote their talent with unrelenting focus to achieving their dreams, even if it's sometimes at the expense of those around them. Successful alpha personalities display a single-minded determination to impose their vision on the world.

My business is so all-encompassing that I don't really get the pleasure of being with friends that much, frankly. Most of my friendships are business related because those are the only people I meet. I think I have a lot of friends, but they're not friends like perhaps other people have friends, where they're together all the time and they go out to dinner all the time.

I think I might have more Indian blood than a lot of the so-called Indians that are trying to open up the reservations. It should be so prestigious to represent me that you should do it for free. If at the end of 90 days, I've fallen short. . . even though I'm supposed to be the smart one and even though I'm supposed to have a lot of good ideas, it's okay. I go back to a very good way of life.

Hillary is a world class liar.

Hillary wants to abolish, essentially abolish, the second amendment. If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. Although the second amendment people, maybe there is, I don't know. But I'll tell you what, that will be a horrible day.

I think the only card she has is the women's card -- she's got nothing else going. And frankly, if Hillary Clinton were a man, I don't think she'd get five percent of the vote. The only thing she's got going is the women's card, and the beautiful thing is, women don't like her.

She's the devil. Unstable Hillary Clinton, lacks the judgment, temperament and moral character to lead this country. Was she there at 3 o'clock in the morning to answer the call? No, now and she won't be, she won't be, she won't be there. She doesn't have the strength and she doesn't have the energy to be president, I will tell youThe media are disgusting and corrupt.

The failing @nytimes has become a newspaper of fiction. Their stories about me always quote non-existent unnamed sources. Very dishonest! When they write dishonest stories, we should be a little bit tough. My rallies are not properly covered by the media.

Political correctness has created biased news coverage of both illegal immigration and radical Islamic terrorism.

If the disgusting and corrupt media covered me honestly and didn't put false meaning into the words I say, I would be beating Hillary by 20%. CNN is catastrophic and disgusting. I am running against crooked media, not just Hillary Clinton.

If I lose... but I won't.

I don't think I'm going to lose, but if I do, I don't think you're ever going to see me again, folks. I think I'll go to Turnberry and play golf or something.

And if at the end of 90 days I fall short because I'm somewhat politically [incorrect] even though I'm supposed to be the smart one and even though I'm supposed to have a lot of good ideas, it's OK. You know, I go back to a very good way of life.

We're gonna watch Pennsylvania. Go down to certain areas and watch and study and make sure other people don't come in and vote five times... The only way we can lose, in my opinion -- and I really mean this, Pennsylvania -- is if cheating goes on.

You have a chance to do something that will be Earth shaking. I literally mean it. Earth shaking. You've got to get your people out to vote. Can you imagine how badly I'll feel if I spend all of that money ... all of this energy ... all of this time -- and lost?

In a nutshell: vote for my looks.

Do I look like a president? How handsome am I, right? How handsome? I think I look real good. I mean, I think I look like a president. My popularity? Honestly, it's my looks. I'm very handsome. That's the only thing I can think of right now. Of course it's very hard for them to attack me on looks, because I'm so good looking. But I was attacked very viciously by those women.

I hope to have convinced you Georges. Vote for me.

Except for the first and last sentences, all the statements of Donald Trump are verbatim his words. It did not take the form of a letter to me, however.
