Recently, in one of my businesses, I've begun asking "What is the difference between a manager and a boss?" It's a pretty big difference. Trump apparently doesn't believe in management; only in "bossing". But the other part of it is his NEED to degrade others. A manager could take quiet pride if one if his "understudies" or co-workers accomplished extraordinary. But - sadly - apparently not Trump.
I'm not sure how his children turned out so well. Maybe he doesn't boss them, but cultivates and manages instead?
BTW, I guess I lost my cool today when I saw that nasty piece Trump had written and heard about the petty name-calling.
I didn't lost respect for Trump when the "red wave" didn't arrive; he worked hard and it didn't come through (no doubt there was cheating, but if there had been a huge wave that wouldn't have mattered). But I have lost a lot of respect for him in the way he is blaming and degrading others in the aftermath. A manager, a great leader, would, instead, be praising and congratulating.
