It’s common knowledge that Barack Obama loved a good read, but what are the chances we’ll see Donald Trump inspiring book clubs across the country with similar president-approved paperbacks?
If a new report by the New York Times is any indication, the chances are slim to none.
President Trump “does not read books,” according to the Maggie Haberman’s recent report, which details Trump’s first few days in the White House.

In July, Tony Schwartz, the ghostwriter behind Trump’s 1987 book The Art of the Deal told The New Yorker that in the 18 months he spent with Trump, he “never saw a book on Trump’s desk, or elsewhere in his office, or in his apartment.”

Additionally, a July Washington Post article [...] reported Trump as saying that he does not read extensively because he is able to come to correct decisions “with very little knowledge other than the knowledge I [already] had, plus the words ‘common sense,’ because I have a lot of common sense and I have a lot of business ability.”

Fast forward to today. Somebody must have been talking about the fact that he doesn't read. Or else he's still thinking about right-wing sheriffs he knows and loves.
Go ahead. Do a little Googling on David A. Clarke, Jr.
...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
