Peggy Noonan: What We See Is Trump’s Actually Not Good at Making Deals

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
NOONAN: "Um Yes. I think I would add looking at the history here of Mr. Trump meeting first in the public deal last week when he talked to everybody and he said, “Make a deal, I can take the heat,” then in the conversation with Schumer, what I think we see is he’s actually not good at making a deal. What he does is pull New York real estate moves on the American political scene. He’s saying, “You know what, we got a deal. It’s so great. Come back tomorrow. We’re going to have champagne and shine—sign it.” And they come back and it’s sort of, “I was thinking overnight. I got three or four more things. They’re not that big,” and everybody goes, “You’re jerking me around.” So that’s the part that I think is not working. And maybe he’s not so deeply involved at the moment because his particular talents don’t apply here."
