Дональд Трамп, как известно, не читает книжек.

“I seriously doubt that Trump has ever read a book straight through in his adult life.” During the eighteen months that he observed Trump, Schwartz said, he never saw a book on Trump’s desk, or elsewhere in his office, or in his apartment.

Но кино смотрит. Любимая сцена Трампа в кино - эпизод Pulp Fiction, где герой в исполнении Сэмюэлa Джексонa говорит: Tell that bitch to be cool! Say "bitch be cool"!



My favorite part is when Sam has his gun out in the diner and he tells the guy to tell his girlfriend to shut up: ‘Tell that bitch to be cool,’” Trump told me on his plane, as he munched on potato chips. “‘Say: Bitch be cool!’ I love those lines.”

Интересно, в каком виде эта сцена всплывет в сознании на предстоящих президентских дебатах.

TRUMP: I will tell you that our system is broken. I gave to many people, before this, before two months ago, I was a businessman. I give to everybody. When they call, I give.

And do you know what?

When I need something from them two years later, three years later, I call them, they are there for me.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: So what did you get?

TRUMP: And that’s a broken system.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: What did you get from Hillary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi?

TRUMP: Well, I’ll tell you what, with Hillary Clinton, I said be at my wedding and she came to my wedding.

Другой любимый фильм Трампа - Bloodsport с Жан-Клодом Ван Даммом. Трамп смотрит этот фильм, проматывая скучные диалоги и концентрируясь на сценах единоборства.



We hadn’t been airborne long when Trump decided to watch a movie. He’d brought along “Michael,” a recent release, but twenty minutes after popping it into the VCR he got bored and switched to an old favorite, a Jean Claude Van Damme slugfest called “Bloodsport,” which he pronounced “an incredible, fantastic movie.” By assigning to his son the task of fast-forwarding through all the plot exposition—Trump’s goal being “to get this two-hour movie down to forty-five minutes”—he eliminated any lulls between the nose hammering, kidney tenderizing, and shin whacking.
