The expert on the donald was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayne_Barrett
and his village voice writings and books.
Looking at his life on the whole, he has survived some near bankruptcy; he has had a succession of sexy wifes; he gets to play a lot of golf on his own golf courses; esp when he was younger, he was an icon to many of successful businessman, and still is a celebrity;
I can also recommend Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman, this pretty much explains the American Zeitgeist, of which donald embodies, esp for someone from Queens.
