Trump: The Comic Book

"A little hyperbole never hurts. People want to believe that something is the biggest and the greatest and the most spectacular. I call it truthful hyperbole. It’s an innocent form of exaggeration — and a very effective form of promotion."

-- Donald Trump

The Vox people, reading through Donald Trump's books, came upon an arguably telling self-portraiture in which Trump sees his life has a self-made comic book.

"I’ve read stories in which I’m described as a cartoon: a comic book version of the big-city business mogul with the gorgeous girlfriend and the private plane and the personal golf course and the penthouse apartment with marble floors and gold bathroom fixtures: my cartoon is real. I am the creator of my own comic book, and I love living in it."

-- Donald Trump, "The Art of the Deal" (1987)

I guess all he needs is a cape and tights. Maybe billionaires, possibly millionaires as well, should be found only in comic books.
