Confidence Man

Maggie Haberman

Trump's character was shaped by his longing for approval from his dominant father, and also from influential figures like the assertive attorney Roy Cohn. Trump's craving for admiration and acknowledgment was evident during his time as a prominent New York real estate tycoon, along with his tumultuous style of management. These characteristics were amplified during his tenure in the White House, resulting in a presidency marked by unprecedented staff turnover and, ultimately, a disastrous conclusion that pushed the boundaries of democracy.
