Here in America, MONEY is something everyone can have, and because Trump poured cement with BLUE collars when he was a young MAN, he KNOWS the vernacular; he speaks that language. In fact, he was probably much more comfortable with them than he is with the aristocrats, who are his FINANCIAL peers.
I READ John Irving's NOVEL 'The World ACCORDING To Garp' when I was about 14 or 15. It was the first GROWN-UP book that I had read. It is the story of a young man who grows up to be a novelist. I finished it, and I wanted to write a book that made the reader feel the way I FELT at the end of that, which was sort of both bereft and elated.
