Quotes from Donald J. Trump

What we need is leadership that can deal with our mess and begin to apply practical solutions to our problems. My goal is not to design hundreds of pages of government regulation and red tape like others propose. We need to outline commonsense policies and then knock some heads together if necessary to make them work. The fact is we are over-regulated. People can't move. They're stymied. Companies can't be built. We're over-regulated.

Our Journey Together' is a collection of beautiful photos captured during our very successful time in the White House.

From center stage to behind-the-scenes—this is a must-have for all Patriots. Every photograph has been handpicked by me and every caption is mine, some in my own handwriting

Our Journey Together' features unforgettable moments from our time in Washington: building the Southern Border Wall; cutting America's taxes; confirming almost 300 federal judges and 3 Supreme Court justices; rebuilding our military; creating Space Force; dealing with Kim Jong-Un, President Xi, President Putin, and many other world leaders; and battling liberals on two Impeachment Witch Hunts, just to name a few.

There is no substitute for due diligence. To this day, my father reads every lease our firm enters into. Before any building acquisition, every single lease must be reviewed. Yes, there are lawyers involved and that is technically their job, but he believes—and I do, too—that there is nothing like knowing the full story of a property, right down to the basic maintenance contracts.

Our Journey' would not have been possible without Patriots all across America, where this book has proudly been printed! The MAGA message is being heard—bigger and better than ever before. Remember, our journey isn't over—the best is yet to come!

6. Buy something of equal or greater value. To avoid paying any tax at the time of the exchange, you have to buy property of equal or greater value and reinvest all of the cash.

The best advice he gave me was simply to be in the real estate market as an investor and to believe in the market.

The real profit is made when real estate is bought, not when it's sold. You need to have a specific value creation strategy for each property, whether that value will be found in operating the real estate in an optimal fashion or whether renovation and/or repositioning can lead to a higher value.

Location undoubtedly helps drive value, but more than that, a supply-constrained area where people want to be helps lock in better returns during the ownership and long-term value.

I quickly learned that the world is a changing place. You cannot stand still. If you do, life will pass you by.

Always try to improve on your performance. Do

The closest thing is, uh, in 1917, they say, uh, The Great- the Great Pandemic; and it certainly was a terrible thing where they lost anywhere from 50 to 100 million people; probably ended the Second World War, all the soldiers were sick.

As Benjamin Franklin once said, "Beware of little expenses. A small leak will sink a great ship." In business, nothing is ever too small to notice.

Excuses are a symptom of fear. Plunge in and do the thing you fear the most and your fear will vanish. Nobody is born with confidence. All confidence is acquired. Get the action habit, and your confidence will soar.

the truth is that most people buy a home because it uniquely reflects their personality and their values.

you want to build wealth and create financial freedom, you can't just sell real estate; you need to invest in it personally.

There is never a wrong time to buy real estate. When times are good, people complain about the deals they have missed. When times are bad, they claim they can't buy at the top thinking that prices will fall and, therefore, it's not a good investment.

Sometimes in life you have to let people breathe before it all comes back to bite you!

The final key to the way I promote is bravado. I play to people's fantasies. People may not always think big themselves, but they can still get very excited by those who do.

Decide early on if it's a short- or long-term play. Speculators can make money by buying in new condo developments very early and then flipping the units at the first opportunity for a quick profit.

the keys to thinking big is total focus. I think of it almost as a controlled neurosis, which is a quality I've noticed in many highly successful entrepreneurs. They're obsessive, they're driven, they're single-minded and sometimes they're almost maniacal, but it's all channeled into their work. Where other people are paralyzed by neurosis, the people I'm talking about are actually helped by it.

you are in it for the long term, look for areas that have not yet peaked but have great upward potential.

I ask and I ask and I ask, until I begin to get a gut feeling about something. And that's when I make a decision.
