Trump ( i suspect) doesnt really concern himself with seeking validation
bullsh1t ... trump is like many other celebrities in need of constant validation. If trump were to stop attracting publicity and it came to the point where trump would be largely ignored, he would be a prime candidate for depression. Much like many other celebrities who smoke themselves into a stupor because they can't handle the fact that they aren't the mega star they once were.
I would dispute that.
Most business owners , who have been forced to fail and then try again and then deal with the brutal social conditioning of running a business, eventually become
humble
grounded
and, most importantly, learn to "draw state from within".
By this i mean, they learn to control their own mental state by drawing on "who they are", not drawing their mental state off of the environment.
This is key to the grounded confidence of the alpha male.
he does NOT need things to go his way to be happy.
In fact, he relishes problems and he thrives on chaos.
There is a very good book on how chaos "purifies" a system and lets it rebuild and come back stronger.
This is why i believe Trump cannot fail to be good for the USA. because the USA achieved greatness thru embracing chaos and it is becoming stale and mediocre under the fearful lefties.
the leftie always seeks to run away from problems , to cower in the corner, to wring his hands and dither. What better example then obama dealing with Putin.
Trump will relish such an opportunity,
Cometh the hour, cometh the man
