(CNN) Buried in the middle of a richly reported and incredibly detailed New York Times profile of Rupert Murdoch , his family and the vast media empire he oversees is a remarkable anecdote about Donald Trump from the 2016 campaign that illuminates just how desperate the then-candidate was to prove that he was worthy of running for president. "After the Fox contributor and Weekly Standard editor Stephen F. Hayes called Trump 'a clown,' Trump faxed [Fox News anchor Bret] Baier a copy of his résumé, with a note scrawled across it in black marker: 'Tell Hayes no clown could have done all this!'" He was Donald Trump! Accomplished people who are secure don't need to send their resume to every person who attacks them. Donald Trump, well, doesn't.
