From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Trumped! (subtitle: The Inside Story of the Real Donald Trump -- His Cunning Rise and Spectacular Fall) is a 1991 book by John O'Donnell about Donald Trump. Prior to writing the book, O'Donnell worked as the president of Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino for three years.[1][2] In the book, O'Donnell claims that Trump is racist, cheap, and an incompetent businessman.[3]
Response from Trump
According to David Johnston, when the book was published on May 10, 1991, Trump's then-assistant, Norma Foerderer, said that "she had not read the book but understood that it was filled with mistakes and that the public would be well advised to ignore it."[4] Trump later told Playboy that "The stuff O’Donnell wrote about me is probably true.”[1]
