One of the things Donald Trump hates the most is being called a "hole".
Peter Baker of The New York Times and Susan Glasser of The New Yorker wrote a book called The Divider that claims that Donald Trump tried to purchase more land than was previously reported.
The idea was dismissed as ridiculous by officials from the two countries. The book states that Trump's advisers tried to steer him away from the idea.
Trump tried with absurd offers. According to the new book, he proposed trading Puerto Rico to the other side of the world.
He would swap things like fantasy football. A lot of attention is given to how dangerous and impulsive Trump is. Sometimes we forget and are not very bright.
Trump claimed his famous person, woman, man, camera, TV cognitive test was to prove his intelligence, even though he admitted that he doesn't like being called stupid.
The test looks for signs of cognitive decline, not intelligence. It is designed to be simple.
Trump claimed that he passed it because he was called stupid by the locals.
That is not true as shown by the Thursday night monologue.
