Video transcript Oh, man. I got business tonight. Watch the prisoner till morning. Hm. Listen up. The new guy put hands on the sergeant. Make the new guy’s night hell. Hurt the new guy, go home at sunrise. Charges dropped? The Hall camera sees everything. I’m shutting the camera off. You heard the deal, new guy? I heard it. Big man sitting in my spot. You deaf, new guy? Now get down on them knees for me. You put your hand on my face. Nobody gets to do that. So walk away and sit down. Or what, big man? Or you leave on a stretcher. I’ll count to three. One. Go on, count. Two. Now you sit down. Where’s the new guy? Don’t. Open this door! Camera’s off, officer. You can’t leave me in here!

President Trump is the author of The Art of the Deal, Think Like a Billionaire, and Think Big. Analyst and Trump supporter Rod Martin points to The Art of the Deal, Trump's 1987 book, as an explanation of his deal-making philosophy: making big announcements, pivoting often in public statements and, Martin says, ultimately getting what he wanted all along. Critics contend that Trump's books were published decades ago or were aimed at making money, not shedding light. "Generally," Martin said, "critics don't read The Art of the Deal. If they did, they would understand."
