Here is the full post on truthsocial: “It is my Great Honor to endorse Trevor De Vries, an America First Patriot and REAL Republican running to represent the wonderful people of Indiana’s 1st State Senate District! A Successful Businessman, Trevor knows the America First Policies required to Grow our Economy, Create GREAT Jobs, Cut Taxes and Regulations, Promote MADE IN THE U.S.A., and Unleash American Energy DOMINANCE. His opponent, Scott Houldieson, is a Radical Left Democrat who is opposed to NO TAX ON TIPS, NO TAX ON OVERTIME, and NO TAX ON SOCIAL SECURITY and, if he and the Dumocrats ever got in, all of these things will be terminated. He wants massive Tax Increases, Open Borders, Men playing in Women’s Sports, and Transgender Mutilization of your Children. Scott Houldieson is Reckless, Radical, and Dangerous! On the other hand, as your next State Senator, Trevor will fight tirelessly to Protect “Hoosier” Values, Stop Migrant Crime, Ensure LAW AND ORDER, Strengthen our Military/Veterans, Advance Election Integrity, and Defend our always under siege Second Amendment. Trevor De Vries has my Complete and Total Endorsement to be the next State Senator from Indiana’s 1st Senate District. GET OUT AND VOTE FOR TREVOR — HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN!

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."
