The man who ghost-wrote one of Trump's books and spent time with the future president while he was declaring huge financial losses said Trump's main occupation seemed to be 'looking at fabric swatches' for his properties. But Trump’s portfolio did not jibe with what I saw each day — which to a surprisingly large extent was him looking at fabric swatches,' the author wrote in Yahoo News. Flipping through fabric swatches for his properties seemed to be Trump's 'main occupation,' ghost writer Charles Leerhsen writes'Indeed, flipping through fabric swatches seemed at times to be his main occupation,' he continued. But the main thing about fabric swatches was that they were within his comfort zone — whereas, for example, the management of hotels and airlines clearly wasn’t,' the author speculated. Far from being 'ashen-faced' with fear during the losses, Leerhsen wrote, Trump was able to ignore his financial woes, which ultimately would result in multiple bankruptcies, followed by a financial comeback.
