All language subtitles for The Apprentice 2024 hoetinkhof79

I wanna say this to the television audience.

I've made my mistakes.

But in all of my years of public life,

I have never profited,

never profited from public service.

I've earned every cent.

and in all of my years of public life,

I have never obstructed justice.

And I think, too, that I can say

that, in my years of public life,

I welcome this kind of examination

because people have gotta know

whether or not their president is a crook.

Well, I'm not a crook.

I've earned everything I've got.

There's nothing like this place.

There's nothing like it.

You know, the Vanderbilts and the Kennedys,

they all came here.

Do you see that old guy over there

with the pretty young model?

That's Daniel K. Ludwig, the shipping magnate,

one of the only two billionaires in the United States.

And over here, you've got SI Newhouse

who owns half of all the newspapers

and magazines in the country.

Anybody who is anybody comes here to this place.

There's nothing like it.

Why are you so obsessed with these people?

Well, I mean, I'm not obsessed with these people, I just, uh...

I'm curious, you know, about people.

There's a skill to being a billionaire.

It's a talent. You have to be born with it.

You have to have a certain gene.

It's a pretty cool place.

Yeah, and they say I'm the youngest member

ever admitted.

That must be a big thing.

It is. It's a very big thing.

I'm just gonna go powder my nose.

Okay, sure.

Excuse me. I'm Russell.

My friend wants to know if you'd join us for dinner.

Uh, well, I'm actually leaving, so...

He's a longtime member.

He wants to congratulate you

on passing the selection committee.

Well, that's totally untrue.

Sonny Liston was...

Well, fine. He was arrested 19 times.

-But the guy was a champion.

So, you can't blame him for it.

-Well, hello there. -How's it going?

-How are you? -I'm fine, thank you.

Have a seat.

-We're not gonna bite.

There you go. What's your name, handsome?

I'm Donald Trump.

Donald Trump, nice to meet you.

-Roy Cohn. -The Roy Cohn?

From all the papers and everything?

That's right. The Roy Cohn from all the papers.

-That's right. -Yeah, you're brutal.

-I'm brutal. That's right. -Yeah.

He's the guy who put the Rosenbergs in the chair!

Got Rosenbergs in the fucking chair!

On that count, guilty as charged.

But whatever I do, I do it for America.

-Well, uh-- -What are you drinking?

Um... I'll just have some ice water.

-Ice water? Okay.

Meet my pals.

-This is Carmine Galante. -Nice to meet you.

And this voluptuous gentleman over here

with the diabetes is Tony Salerno.

Can I call you Fat Tony? Or are you gonna get me whacked?

You can call me whatever the fuck you want, okay?

You're my attorney.

But you don't call him Fat Tony

because you might end up

in the East River or something like that.

-Hello.

Everybody else is not worth naming.

I, uh...

I love getting to know people. It's important for my business,

so it's really nice to meet you all.

Mr. Salerno, it's really nice to meet you.

What is your business, Donald?

Real estate. I'm vice president of the Trump Organization.

-Oh, you're Fred Trump's kid? -That's right.

He's Fred Trump's kid.

It sounds like your father is a little tangled up.

It looks like he could use a good lawyer.

-Well...

But tell us about it.

Right now, the government and the NAACP are suing us.

They're saying our apartments are segregated.

This is America. You can rent

to whoever the hell you goddamn want.

But our lawyer wants us to pay a huge fine to settle. We can't.

It's gonna bankrupt us and ruin the company.

So, you tell the feds to fuck themselves!

-Damn straight! -File a lawsuit.

Always file a lawsuit. Fight 'em in court.

Make him prove you're discriminating.

Wow, I guess...

might have to get us a new lawyer.

Of course, it helps if Nixon

and the Attorney General are your pals.

Well, are you available? I mean...

What are you, some kind of a faggot?

Mrs. Nathanson?

Yeah?

The rent.

You got it? Is that all?

I think so.

You think so?

Yeah.

Yeah.

And if I count it and it's not there,

what am I supposed to do?

It's just the one month.

I just hurt my back. I just hurt myself.

That's all. And I had to go to hospital.

You know what that's like.

Let's hope you're alive next month. Get the rent.

Get the rent. Or, if not, this is it.

Mrs. Thompson.

Well, it sucks!

Half?

-You're not real! -I am very, very real.

You're in my head.

Mr. Granger, please.

Come on.

Fuck you!

Fuck you!

-Fucker!

These NAACP faggots call me racist.

Fred, please. Enough.

Mary, they're calling me a racist.

How can I be racist when I have a Black driver, Mary?

-No language. -How can that be?

Pleasant conversation.

I'm not racist.

No politics.

Do you think that's funny, Freddy?

Would you get your elbow off of the table, please?

Yes, sir.

Dad, the truth is, we're being sued.

We need the lawsuit behind us,

and I need to bid on the Commodore.

And I think, with Roy, we have a chance.

Not this crap about your hotel, please.

Roy Cohn is not the guy that's gonna help us, okay?

He's a crook.

He's been indicted three times.

He's never been convicted, by the way.

The man's a genius. He ran McCarthy's show

when he was basically a teenager,

and he's pals with Nixon himself. He's vicious.

You don't think I tried pulling strings

with Beame and Rockefeller?

They're no help.

The government wants to kill us.

Just... just take the meeting, that's all I'm saying.

Just meet with him to discuss, that's all.

I think maybe Donnie's right.

Why not meet with Cohn, get a second opinion?

Says the airline pilot.

My firstborn son

is a goddamn bus driver with wings.

Fred, please.

Do you know what kind of an embarrassment that is for us?

Whenever... Whenever I'm asked about my family,

I don't mention you, Freddy.

That's how embarrassed I am about you.

Frederick, enough.

Do you like the music?

-I do.

Hey, how are you? Good to see you.

Oh, my God, you look beautiful.

Why didn't you call me?

Oh, she's busy.

Oh, my God,

Oh, my God, the stories I can tell you about her.

You really know your way around here, huh?

Well, come here often enough, you get to know a few people.

Well, I can see that.

Could you loosen up a little, Donnie?

You look like a security guard.

God, those summers were the worst ever.

I would spend the whole time counting the planes,

taking off from Iowa. I was like that the whole time.

He used to make me pick the nails off the floor

-to save money. -He still does that, Freddy.

Even now.

He would say to me, "You keep an eye,

"anybody takes too long on their smoke break,

"you tell me about it," and he would give me a quarter

for every guy that I tattled on.

It was me against them.

Well, then you probably got rich, huh?

You probably got rich those summers.

Let me get another drink.

No, no. Come on. Come on.

We're all right. Thank you. Thank you very much.

I don't need my little brother.

You think I don't have money? I got money.

I know you do, but it's my treat, okay?

Take your hat. You're gonna need this.

Vic, I'm thinking of a three-story atrium, all right?

And this whole side, all the way down,

I wanna clad in mirrored glass, okay?

So, when you're across 42nd Street,

or you're coming up the Park Avenue ramp,

and you look up, you're gonna see the Chrysler Building,

the Grand Central Station,

all the landmarks reflected in that glass.

It's gonna change the whole ambiance of the neighborhood.

It's gonna be a beautiful thing. What do you think?

Yeah. We're done.

"We're done"? Vic.

What... What are you... What are you saying?

If you were serious,

I'd be talking to your father, not you.

Who the hell wants to build a luxury hotel on 42nd Street?

I do, okay?

I will eat, breathe, and sleep,

and shit this job until it's done.

This is 1,600 rooms right next to Grand Central.

Man, how you doing? You wanna have some fun?

This is my wife here. You wanna fuck my wife?

-No, I'm fine, thank you. -Her tight-ass pussy's all yours

-for 40 bucks. -I'm all right.

-You sayin' my wife-- -Hey, guy! Guy! Come on!

-Whoa! Whoa! -Move on!

New York is the greatest city in the world,

and when it comes back and it will big-time,

there's gonna be one hell of a lot of money.

People are gonna get rich, Vic, like you wouldn't believe.

Come on, Vic. Think outside the box, all right?

I can't deal with you

until you get the Feds off your back.

You got that?

Vic, it's gonna be great.

David, how are you?

How you doing?

How you doing?

Donald Trump from the other night, remember?

-Right. -Mr. Cohn.

Great suit.

Donald Trump, I met you the other night.

Russ, could you get my table, please?

Listen, about the lawsuit, I wanted to talk to you about,

you know, from before, with my father.

Look, I'm here to have fun.

Okay, kid? Don't ruin my night.

Now, I gotta take a piss.

Mr. Cohn, sorry, you have to represent us.

Oh, you've gotta be kidding me.

Well, I'm sorry to follow you to the bathroom,

but you... you... you have to represent us.

The DOJ is trying to ruin our lives.

It's... it's... it's a disgrace.

-It's an injustice. -I'm trying to take a leak.

They're gonna force us to rent to welfare cases,

and they're gonna ruin the buildings.

Please! I'm begging you, sir.

I'm standing in a bathroom here with... with... with this guy,

and I'm begging you from the heart

to just, please, as the only guy,

the only guy that's got the guts and the balls

to take on these bullies, to consider this case!

Well, uh...

I never liked bullies.

The liberals hate capitalism, and strength,

and everything that people like us stand for,

truth, justice, and the American way.

Okay? What they wanna do

is they wanna take money from you and me,

and spread it around to deadbeats on welfare.

-I'm fine. -They're worse than Nazis,

-believe me. -I don't do that.

Oh, well, I got news for you, kid.

You do if you want me to listen.

Chin-chin.

Drink up, Donnie Boy.

So, I don't have all night.

Okay. So...

the suit says we violated the Fair Housing Act.

Don't tell me what the law is. Tell me who the judge is.

Edward Neaher.

That's bad. He's a Boy Scout.

That's bad?

It's not good.

You know what, Donald? This whole civil rights deal,

it stinks, the way herring stinks.

You tell me, how many stuffed shirt leftists

want their little Johnnys and Janes in school

with little Negroes?

Zero.

Right? And they say I'm Lucifer incarnate.

-At least I'm honest, right? -That's true.

Well, the other night, you were talking about...

-Come on, drink up. -I mean... I was...

You were talking about the... suing the government.

And, I mean, were you serious about that, or...

I'm serious as a heart attack.

Okay, to you.

-Thank you. -To Donald.

I'm telling you, Roy, I'm gonna...

I'm gonna take New York.

I'm gonna take New York and bring it back.

I'm gonna do it. You watch. You watch.

I'm gonna take that Commodore,

I'm gonna make it the best fucking hotel in the city.

I'll take the Penn Central.

I'll take the Yards, the Hudson Yards.

I got all these ideas and that's...

That's the problem with my father.

-You know what, Donald? You... -People...

You're gorgeous, you know that? You're a real thoroughbred.

-Right. -You're one of a kind.

Okay? I'm telling you, you're one of a kind.

-I think-- -Not too bad yourself.

Well, I mean, I'm not much to look at.

You know you're good.

I bet you fuck a lot,

don't you, Donald?

You look like somebody who, uh...

fucks a lot.

I think you're right.

I like this kid.

-I feel sorry for him.

Yeah, I can see that.

Go see if he's okay.

I'm not Bonnie Lindenbaum, and this isn't Avenue Z.

-Right. -The powerful people,

they hire me because I'm not the typical

do-it-by-the-hour and do nothing shyster.

I won't be pushed around, okay?

You're the client, but you work for me.

That means you do what I say.

What I say, 100%.

Absolutely, Totally.

Whatever you say.

And if you throw up on my scarlet piping,

you're a dead duck.

My office, 12:30 tomorrow.

- Yes?

Hello. This is Donald Trump for Mr. Cohn.

-Thank you so much. - Donald who?

-Donald Trump. - Come on in, Donald.

No.

No, I'm telling you it was not in his briefcase.

It wasn't alleged to be in this briefcase.

I was in court. I saw the complaint and you didn't.

Did you?

Okay.

No, you're not listening to me.

No.

Just get the goddamn injunction and shut up already.

Uh, where were we?

Murdoch, prepping his bid for the New York Post.

Needs due diligence on owner Dolly Schiff.

Due diligence? What's to know? She's a communist cunt .

-Tell Rupert that

she's Robert Barron's wet dream.

-Thank you, Rosario. -And ripe for the pickin'.

Phelps divorce. When is that?

A week, Monday.

Because I wanna be armed to the goddamn teeth

when I put her yutz of a husband on the stand.

Morning, sweetheart.

We also have to deal with

the latest subpoena from the IRS.

Those geniuses at the IRS.

All right, it's a total vendetta.

Charlie, come here, you schmuck!

-Okay, here.

That's Charlie Brown. Give him...

-give him a kiss, Charlie.

Oh, yeah.

Nice. Be careful, he might try and blow you.

91.

92.

-Well, that's the lawsuit,

-in case you wanna take a look. -194.

All about the Fair Housing Act.

I'm doing my sit-ups, Donald. Hang on.

195.

196.

Don't touch them, please.

-Oh, I'm sorry. -198.

199.

Wow, you got quite a collection, Roy.

200.

President Nixon, that's pretty incredible.

Nixon, yeah, he's a good friend.

-He's a close personal friend. -Do you wanna read the lawsuit?

I don't need to read the lawsuit.

I told you, it stinks.

Smells like my armpit smells right now.

Yeah, I mean, in reality, I mean...

I mean, we do rent to Black people.

-You do? -Yeah, 10% of our buildings

go to Black people.

-Oh, well... -It's just,

they have to make four times the amount of the rent

in terms of the income to be approved.

Sounds to me like they're discriminating against you.

That's right, they are.

And it should be called the Unfair Housing Act.

It's your building. You can do whatever the hell you want.

Sure sounds nice when you say it, Roy, you know?

-Where's my check? -Oh, I got it right here.

Okay, we're in business.

You got a great name, Trump.

Well, may end up on that wall one day.

-It'd be nice. -You could be on that wall.

Yeah, you could be on that wall. Why not?

How do you mix with all those people?

Everybody wants to suck a winner's cock

is what it comes down to.

I've been indicted three times. I won 36-0.

Government, zero. Roy Cohn, 36.

-I'm a winner. -How do you win?

You wanna know how to win?

I'm gonna let you in on a little secret.

There's rules.

Roy Cohn's three rules of winning.

The first rule is the simplest. Attack, attack, attack!

Civil rights. Katz.

I hope the putz you're schtupping

has got real money, 'cause after I get you fired,

you're sure gonna need it.

-Excuse me? -Unless you drop

your baseless litigation,

I am countersuing the Justice Department

for 100 million dollars.

And you are gonna rue the day that you ever filed--

-Who is this? -It's Roy Cohn,

calling on behalf of my client, Donald J. Trump.

Always let it ring twice.

To whom do I owe the pleasure?

Mr. Cohn, this is Jay Stanley Pottinger

of the United States Department of Justice.

Wow, I'm sure your mother is very proud.

How dare you threaten one of my attorneys?

I should have you disbarred for speaking to her that way!

Stan. Stan. Bubala. Why don't you calm down?

That never happened.

Barbara Katz has worked for me for 20 years!

-You threatened her, and now-- -Sounds like, maybe,

maybe she's hormonal or something like that.

- What did you say? -

Rule two.

Admit nothing, deny everything.

Objection. The Civil Rights Division did not file a lawsuit.

Frankly, it compiled a 48-page press release,

as far as I can tell.

Now, the government has failed to spell out

one single fact

concerning alleged discriminatory practices

against Blacks by the Trumps.

I motion to have this case dismissed on summary judgment.

Overruled.

Counselor, continue.

Thank you, Your Honor. Agent Green,

what led you to believe that you were denied a lease

at Trump Properties based on your race?

Well, not only did the newspaper advertise...

That's Walter. DOJ. He runs the show.

I saw three Caucasian couples approved before me.

-Objection. Speculation. -Mr. Cohn--

How can he say for sure they were Caucasian?

Please allow Agent Green to answer the question.

I've seen Puerto Ricans whiter than my tush

after a long winter.

-Your Honor...

-Mr. Cohn! -Marvin, how are you?

-Good to see you. -Good to see you.

How do you feel about your chances?

The government's case is phony as a three-dollar bill.

Let's just say we're in a very strong position.

Mr. Trump, do you think you can beat the US government?

I feel very good about this.

One more question, Mr. Trump.

-Mr. Trump! -Sir!

We're really gonna win, aren't we?

Are you out of your mind? Of course not.

-What? -Donald,

your case is a total dog.

But... but you said that they had no evidence.

Your leasing agents marked Black applications with a "C."

That "C" didn't stand for cotton candy, now, did it?

Raul, I'm late for a little rendezvous. Step on it.

Roy, you said we'd win hands down.

Rule three.

This is the most important rule of all. Okay?

-No matter what happens... -Do we to drive this fast?

...no matter what they say about you,

no matter how beaten you are,

you claim victory and never admit defeat.

Never admit defeat!

Donald, you wanna win? That's how you win.

Walter, my good friend. What a nice surprise.

It's, uh...

nice to see you, too, Roy.

Your bulldog Katz, she's being tough on us.

Barbara is one of our best.

You know, this case isn't fair.

You and I both know that.

Well, you know what, Roy, justice is complicated.

-"Justice is complicated"? -Yeah.

You know what could get complicated, Walter...

is a...

a married man committing certain indiscretions

with the cabana boys in Cancun.

The last I checked,

homosexuals were barred from federal civil service.

What do you want, Roy?

Why don't you do the right thing and make this case go away?

You know I can't do that.

Imagine your wife reading in the Post that...

-Roy... -...her husband is a fairy.

Is that what you want?

Say hello to Moira and the kids.

-What? I'm not gonna bite. -That was...

Why don't you sit down?

You're all the way over in Alaska. Come here.

Well...

What?

I don't know, Roy. I mean, I...

Pretty sure what I just saw was...

I... I don't even know what... what to think of that.

I mean, I'm...

I'm speechless.

Here's the thing, Donald, uh...

You played... you played sports, right?

So, they probably taught you, uh...

"Play the ball, not the man."

But you see, in reality, it's the total opposite.

You play the man, not the ball.

Okay? To get what you want, forget the ball.

You get the man.

This is a nation of men, not laws.

And you don't care?

It's an advantage...

to not care what people think of you.

Fuck what people think of you.

There is no right and wrong.

There is no morality.

There is no truth with a capital T.

It's a construct.

It's a fiction. It's man-made.

None of it matters except winning.

That's it.

...leave office before my term is completed

is a part of every instinct in my body.

But, as President, I must put the interests of America first.

I shall resign the presidency, effective at noon tomorrow.

-My first priority, in this presidency,

is to sustain and strengthen

the mutual trust and respect, which must exist...

Hello?

Never answer your own phone, like some loser.

-Get a secretary. -How's it going?

Listen, the judge called with news about the suit.

Well, what are they saying?

Well, the government folded like a cheap tent.

We settled with no fine.

No admission of discrimination. So, you won big, kiddo.

Roy, that's...

-that's incredible. I-- -Now get ready.

I'm gonna pick you up in about an hour, okay?

You're a genius--

Uh...

Listen, Judy, about 100 reporters

were crawling up my ass to get this interview,

and I gave you the exclusive.

Uh, yes. Hello, Judy. This is Donald Trump.

I'm very excited... very excited to talk to you.

So, Donald, now with the lawsuit behind you,

-what do you wanna do next? -Uh...

Well, I intend to acquire the Commodore,

and I'm planning on making it the the best

and the finest building in the city.

-Maybe... maybe the country. - The world.

In the world, Judy. In the world.

It's gonna be the finest building in the world.

It's gonna be a spectacular hotel.

Absolutely spectacular.

First class. And, uh...

That sounds very ambitious.

Where do you get the drive? You're still so young, Donald.

I got... I got flair and I'm smart,

so I think that's gonna make me successful.

-Slow down. -But I also wanna stay humble.

I'm sorry, Judy.

Listen, let's do the rest in person,

and bring a photographer, okay?

I'm sorry, Roy.

No, I mean, listen, it's your life.

Now, you got a ways to go, but you're learning.

You know, I should have talked to Dad

before announcing the Commodore.

He'll be convinced when he reads about it in the Times.

-Okay? You create your own reality. -Well...

-It's not that easy. -Truth is a malleable thing.

-These are too tight, I think. - All right. Well...

-You have kind of a big ass. -I'm sorry.

You know that? You gotta work on that.

We try something else.

Look, my dad is tough. He's very tough.

Well, that's why you gotta spread the news,

like it's already happening.

Just, you can't push him around very easily.

Fine. Okay, fine. Then, uh...

What? You let him push you around. Is that what you want?

-No, I don't. -Look.

Very, very fine fabric.

-Brioni. -What is that? Merino wool?

It looks expensive.

-How much is this? -$1,100.

-Okay, that's-- -Okay. We'll take it.

And a matching shirt and tie.

-I can't pay for this. -Forget it. Okay? Forget it.

Listen. Here.

I don't need your money.

You'll pay me back with your friendship, okay?

Quid pro quo.

You be a friend to me, I be a friend to you.

Okay? That's... that's... That's the pact, okay?

If you look like a million bucks,

I look like a million bucks.

Is this a guy... Is this a guy from Flushing,

or is this a guy from Fifth Avenue?

-You know what I'm saying? -I'm Fifth Avenue.

Fifth Avenue is where we wanna be.

-That's right. -Exactly.

...for over 20 minutes.

I've already explained. This is a members-only club.

-Only members are allowed. -We can become members.

-We can file papers right now. -You cannot become members.

I've asked you once to leave.

I want to speak to the boss.

I am the boss.

You're not the boss. -I am the boss.

I want to speak with the real boss.

-I'm sorry you're upset. -Excuse me.

Um, what's the issue?

I'm sorry, Mr. Trump. I was just trying to get them to leave.

Well, actually, they're on the list.

We don't need your help.

And what list would that be?

The, uh, Roy Cohn list.

My apologies, Mr. Trump.

Why don't you take your coat off?

Thank you very much.

Hi, ladies. Let me get those registered.

I'm Donald Trump.

You're such a...

-What is the word? -Gentleman.

Stereotype.

A man who thinks women need his help.

Well, you... you were totally failing without me.

So, I guess you needed my help a little bit.

What's the catch, gentleman?

No catch.

Enjoy your night.

Thank you.

Ladies, can I get you anything else tonight?

-I'm good. -I'm good, too.

The check, please.

Mr. Trump took care of it.

Oh.

Well, then...

Mr. Trump is obsessed with somebody.

Thank you. All right. Should we get out of here?

-Yes.

-Excuse me, hello?

Hello, excuse me!

Excuse me.

-Do you need a ride? -We don't need a ride.

It looks really cold out there and, uh...

-Let me give you a ride. -You know what...

-Listen, come on.

You didn't tell me your name.

Ivana Zelnickova.

-Ivana...

Zelnickova?

-Zelnickova. -Zelnickova.

Thank you for the ride.

I really wanna see you again, okay?

I'd love to, and I'd love to take you to dinner.

Thank you, Donald. But...

I have a boyfriend.

So what? He doesn't let you eat?

Good night, Donald. Come on.

"Donald J. Trump is tall, lean and blonde,

"with dazzling white teeth,

"and looks ever so much like Robert Redford."

I'm so proud of you. Look here.

I'm so proud of you.

- Oh. -They even called me...

-controversial. -Oh.

Donald, it would have been appropriate for you

to talk to me

before you announced your Commodore plan.

Now, it looks like

I don't run my own goddamn company.

Well...

not if you back me up.

Donald, the Chrysler Building is in foreclosure.

And you want to open a hotel around the corner.

The Chrysler Building is a landmark--

It's like adding a deck chair to the Titanic.

Dad, sooner or later, you might have to

accept the fact that I could be right,

and maybe I know what I'm doing.

Look, Donald, I respect what you've done.

I really hope so. I hope so. I hope so, Dad. I really do.

Donald...

I gotta go.

Really, Frederick?

Hey, Russell. Uh, where's Roy?

Donald, what's a nice boy like you

doing at a party like this?

How do you know Roy?

-He's, uh... he's my lawyer. -Oh.

Mine, too.

-I'm in real estate. -Mmm.

-What do you do? -I'm an artist.

Oh.

What do you make?

Anything I can sell.

Making money is art.

It's true. It is.

It is.

Are you successful?

Oi! There he is, the boy with the golden hair.

I say, if you're indicted, you're invited.

The suit looks great.

Come on, let's Let's mingle.

Dick, how are you? This is Donald Trump.

-Oh, how's it going? -New friend. New client.

Listen, Roy, I hear Ed Koch is gonna run.

Oh, well, he'll never win. He's a total homo.

- He's a homo? -That's what I heard.

Listen, Abe's worried. He wanted me to talk to you.

Okay, call me tomorrow. I'm at the party, okay?

Dick is the deputy mayor.

You know, he's a good friend.

Gentlemen, I want you to meet a real prince.

-This is Donald Trump. -Mr. Murdoch.

Nice to meet you.

-George Steinbrenner. -Of course.

He knows who you are, George.

-I mean, are you kidding me? -Sir, I used to play ball.

Coach said I could have gone pro.

What the hell happened?

Well, I realized, why play on the field

when I can just own the stadium?

-I like that.

Talk to you later?

Rupert is gonna be key for you.

You wanna get quoted in the Post and all the papers a lot.

You know, keep your name in the papers.

-Oh, that's my accountant. -Uh, really?

Listen, you better work on the Commodore pitch, okay?

Brush up on that because I got you a sit-down

with the CEO of Hyatt.

-Jay Pritzker? -Yeah, Pritzker. Who else?

Roy, that's amazing.

Roy, that's...

-Okay. -That's incredible.

Estelle!

On behalf of the sadistic,

inhumane conservatives in this country,

I wanna welcome all of you.

It's great to see so many old friends, and new ones.

I love this country.

I think of America as my most important client.

Some of you are my clients, and I hate to break it to you,

but America is more important.

-We are the last line of defense

between a free world and a totalitarian hellscape.

-God bless America! -God bless America!

-God bless America! -God bless America!

Where is Roy? Have you seen him?

-I think he went upstairs. -Okay.

All right, I guess I'll look around.

-Oh, yes!

Well, gentlemen, this is a monumental opportunity.

The Grand Central Area

is one of the most important locations in the city.

The Chrysler Building is there. The Pan Am Building is there.

The whole area is monumental,

and the key to the whole area is the old Commodore Hotel,

which is just sitting there, boarded up,

and waiting to be transformed.

I wanna make it something very special.

I wanna build an incredible, glorious, glamorous hotel

that's gonna put people to work in the construction trades,

it's gonna save hotel jobs.

It's been a brutal year for New York.

We're one step away from depression.

And we have to bring it back.

Thank you.

Commodore Hotel is a great idea,

but not only is it in shambles,

but everything around it, as well.

Everything on that city block

-is going to need to be rebuilt. -I'd love to do that.

I think "destination" is a great word.

You know, it brings people to... to Manhattan.

A lot of Europeans are waiting to come back to the city.

Mr. Pritzker, any questions?

Just one.

Between the unions and taxes,

how will you make money?

Um...

Well, that's a... That's a really interesting question.

Um...

Well, there won't be any taxes, Jay,

because we're gonna get a tax abatement from the mayor,

who is begging developers to build, okay?

And if I tell him that the CEO of Hyatt is committing,

then I can get him to waive the property taxes.

The city's broke, and you're saying

they're gonna forego taxes?

I'm saying I got the city planning commission

in my pocket.

Think you're dreaming, Donald.

Hello?

Russell, it's Donald.

Can you let me in? I... I need to talk to Roy.

Oh.

Russell!

- Easy, easy... -Roy!

...or you're gonna break my intercom.

Roy, can you let me in? I... I need your help.

Boy, you fucked the dog, didn't you?

Listen, I... I...

-I'm sorry.

I really need your help on this.

Okay? I'll... I'll call the mayor. What's my ask?

Waive Hyatt's property taxes.

-Waive Hyatt's property taxes? -Yeah.

Oh, so you want...

You want me to ask them for a $160,000,000 abatement?

-Yeah, Well, with you-- -You're nuts.

With you, it can be done. You're Roy Cohn.

You're Roy Cohn. The Roy Cohn.

It's just not gonna happen.

I mean, I'll do anything for you. Whatever you want.

You know, I can't turn, you know,

loaves into fishes here, you know?

I know, but I'm begging you for this.

I believe in this, Roy, and I'm begging you, please.

Just...

-Just make a call. -Okay, call me in the morning.

Okay? Call me in the morning.

-Roy, I love you. -Be glad he owes me.

I love you!

-Okay. -Thank you.

-Have a good night. -Good night.

Bye. Have a good night.

Let's just hope we're not made fools of in there.

Everyone's on board, Dad. This is just a formality.

Yeah, right.

It was only a year ago

that President Ford told New York City to drop dead.

New York City, drop dead.

Now, my client, Mr. Trump,

is trying to give this city a much-needed blood infusion

and resuscitate the corpse of New York City,

and I urge you to support my client In doing so.

-Thank you. -Thank you, Mr. Cohn.

Let's go through the last run of comments on this issue.

Deputy Mayor Richard Morgan will provide the mayor's view

of this proposal.

Thank you, Chairman. I'll keep this brief.

Mayor Beame and the rest of City Hall

fully support Mr. Trump's plans.

This is a damn rip-off!

The rich don't need another tax break!

-Order! -Especially this man!

-Okay, okay. Okay. -Come on, Chairman.

While it is true that there is support

for Mr. Trump's proposal,

it is also true that the city is being forced to cut

vital services to the poor.

We will move to a vote after a short recess.

You said they were on board!

Now, you're wasting my time.

What did I tell you?

What did I tell you?

-What happened, Roy?

You thought the rules don't apply to you?

Well, what are we gonna do now? They're gonna vote any minute.

Watch your head.

It's my playroom.

I can record everything and, you know,

keep a record in case I need it.

This is the patch bay,

and you run these cables

to any room in the house, and you can listen in.

I got Onassis.

I got Cardinal Cooke.

Oh, I got everybody.

Park your butt here.

The chairman came to see me one day

with a little problem.

Michael, can I have a word?

- Where'd you put the money?

I put it in the fund I thought

no one would take a look at.

Now, they're going through the books.

- How much? - 50K.

I don't want this thing coming back to haunt me.

Have you no decency?

You know, I've heard that before.

Motherfucker!

You have to be willing to do anything to anyone to win.

This has been one of the toughest votes we've had.

There's a lot of strong feelings on both sides.

You have to be willing

to exploit your enemies and instill fear.

Our responsibility is to do what's best for New York.

The truth is, the city needs investment.

Therefore, we grant approval for Mr. Trump's tax abatement.

-Outrageous!

This is a final decision!

This is corruption!

I will ask you to maintain order in this house!

Well, that's illegal, right?

Oh, it's illegal?

Donald, wake up!

You know, when I tried the Rosenbergs,

I wanted so badly

to see those pinko kikes fry for what they did.

Now, Judge Kaufman had no trouble

sending Julius to the chair,

but Ethel was a mother with young kids.

They wanted her to live,

as if that's some sort of special immunity

for betraying your country.

So, during the trial,

I'd slip out at lunch to a phone booth

and call Kaufman.

You know, technically, ex parte conversations,

they're not allowed. But, uh...

when democracy is at stake,

you're damn right I'm willing to violate

a few technicalities.

I don't care if she's a mother with young kids.

She betrayed our country and she has to die.

You have to set an example and put this woman to death.

She's a traitor.

Do you understand what I'm telling you?

I mean, America is the biggest client.

That's right.

You have to be willing to do anything for America

to safeguard democracy.

Yeah?

-Hello? - Ivana.

-Donald. -

Hi, Don.

What's going on? You wanna go to dinner?

Donald, I like you. And the flowers are beautiful.

-But I cannot do this-- - Come on.

This is hurting my heart. I can't sleep. I can't eat--

I'm off for a job in Aspen, and I need to pack.

A job?

Like... like--

Listen, Donald, I'm getting engaged.

You're getting engaged.

I really love my boyfriend.

-Well, just--

All right, so here's the idea.

We got, like, a rock band going here.

She needs all the attention. You guys are great.

You're supporting her, though.

-Are we good? -Yeah.

Push your tits towards me. There you go.

The arrogance. The arrogance. Sexy.

Here we go.

Beautiful.

Come a little bit forward here. There you go. Okay.

Great job.

You look good.

Donald, what are you doing here?

I heard Aspen real estate is hot.

-Bullshit. -It's true.

I have a lot of, uh, unfinished business.

You wanna go to dinner?

I'm gonna make a run after the shoot,

and maybe you can join me.

-You... you wanna ski? -Do you know how to ski?

Sure.

I'll meet you here.

Meet me at the slopes.

No, no, no. I'll meet you here.

I'll get my skis, and I'll meet you here.

Do...

Do you like modeling?

I like the money.

You make good money on that?

I make decent money.

But what I really want is my own fashion line.

I want clothes, jewelry, shoes

with my name.

My biggest dream is to have my own interior design firm.

I have a whole vision.

-What? -Uh...

No, you're just not like the women I normally meet.

Because I want something more than a man and a ring?

-Yeah. -Well, cheers to that.

You're really not gonna drink anything?

I don't like anything to slow me down.

Okay, I don't mean to laugh.

Well, in life, there are two types of people.

There are killers,

and there are losers.

But it's good not to be a killer, no?

Killer means winner.

Oh.

So...

Are you a killer, Donald?

Are you going to kill me?

It's called the Big Apple,

the greatest city in the world.

Now, there seems to be something rotten

in the core of the fruit.

"The city can barely afford to pay its bills,"

says Ed Koch, the mayoral candidate.

We don't know yet the sacrifices we need to make

to get this city back on its feet again.

And as the crime is surging,

it might even have to lay off those who fight crime.

But this won't stop young real estate promoter,

Donald Trump, from pursuing his dream project,

a 1500-room luxury hotel at the Grand Central Terminal.

New York, right now, is at a great turning point.

It's gonna go one way or the other,

and I'm gonna make damn well sure it goes the right way.

I wanna make it a fabulous place again.

So, what you're telling me is,

I'm supposed to remember, now, in March, 1977,

who I had dinner with in February, 1958,

and, you know, what color tie they were wearing and...

Exactly! Listen, let me call you back.

-That was-- -The clowns at the IRS

-crawling up my ass again. -That's terrible.

Roger, meet Donald Trump.

-Hi. Good to meet you. -How you doing?

Roger Stone.

- Sorry, I'm all wet. -No, it's...

He's all wet.

Huge fan of your work.

-Oh, thank you. -Yeah.

Roger here is into politics.

His specialty is dirty tricks.

Ah, well, no comment.

Roger, duh, be a mensch, get me a Paloma.

Sure.

So how's things?

Well, uh, listen, things are... things are good.

-And I... I met someone. -You met someone?

That's great. Good for you.

Well, she's... she's a tough cookie.

Well, she better not mess with you

because she'll have to answer to me.

We're gonna get married.

You're gonna get married?

You're gonna get married?

What do you mean?

-I love her-- -Are you nuts?

Are you out of your goddamn mind?

Well, I'm in love...

Donald, let me put it to you this way.

Would you sign a contract giving away half your assets?

-What? A contract? -That's what a marriage is,

it's a contract between two parties.

My parents have been married in 40 years, Roy,

I don't know what... nobody had a contract.

Listen, the matrimonial game is a zero sum game.

Trust me, I almost married Barbara Walters,

and then I wised up.

Right.

You're gonna need protection.

It's not the Magna Carta, it's just the standard prenup.

That's all.

Yeah.

In the event of separations

spouse will receive $20,000 annually.

Right?

It's not too bad.

We're not gonna separate...

-Okay, let me finish. -Just sign it at the end.

Let me finish.

Please take your time.

-I will. Trust me. -Good.

Return all the gifts?

Is this a joke?

Does it say that?

Ah, we... we don't have to do that.

Well, legally, a gift doesn't constitute marital property.

-You agree with that? -In the case of divorce

-or the dissolution... -A gift?

...of the marriage.

You don't need to bullshit me with this legal language.

-This is not personal. -I can get a $200

-lawyer like you as well. -It's the law.

-You can keep the gifts. -You know, I don't need that.

Well, we don't have to... just keep the gifts.

-Forget it. -It's fine.

Buyer beware.

Ivana! Hey!

Ivana!

Look, forget the gift clause, all right?

Roy got carried away.

Listen, I'll give you 50,000 now

like a signing bonus.

All right, come on.

The wedding is in two days.

$100,000 in my account before the wedding,

75.

-100,000. -Ivana, please.

Let's talk about this. Come on, Don't do this.

Go find someone else, Donald. I'm not a trophy wife.

You're gonna ruin your life if you don't marry me.

-Come on!

One second. Listen, I'm... -Why is that?

because I'm rich, I'm handsome.

-I have a great family. -Oh, my God!

I'm gonna be the number one builder in New York.

Listen to me.

You're gonna have a life you can't even dream of, Ivana.

With me.

I love you.

I love you. Okay?

I wanna have children with you. I want us to grow old together.

Better.

Hey! Congratulations!

Fuck you.

Thank you very much for coming.

Thank you.

Uh... here. Cheers.

She thinks she's gonna put me in the movies now.

She thinks I look like Robert Redford.

Thank you. And thanks for coming.

Your building is almost as beautiful as your wife.

-Wow. -And it's only getting

even more beautiful.

You must have a lot of money.

There they are! Uh, the two lovebirds.

-There he is. -You look...

You look marvelous.

Right

-Excuse me. -See you in a second.

I don't think somebody's over the prenup.

-She'll come around? -I don't think so.

But that's all right. It means I'm doing my job.

Somebody's got to protect you.

Exactly.

Look at this. I mean, you've got everybody.

You've got the mayor.

Uh, the City Council President. All the major developers here.

Everybody is lining up to kiss your ring now, kiddo.

You've arrived.

-You know that? -Thank you, Roy.

I love you.

You're practically my family.

Thank you for saying that.

I hope we're not tired yet.

We're just getting started, you know.

Drink up, everybody. Hey. Hey. Good to see you.

Good to see you. It's been a long time.

-Roy. How are you? -I'm good. How are you?

-Oh, good. -Very nice to see you.

You should be very proud of your son.

I'm extremely proud.

Extremely proud.

You know... you know, I've been meaning to tell you,

I... I wanted to thank you

for all you've done for Donald. I appreciate it.

Well, I haven't done anything. He doesn't need my help.

Oh...

Little Donnie needs all the help he can get.

We had to ship him off to military school

when the teachers found his switchblade collection.

Yeah, well, you know, I saw West Side Story...

West Side Story.

-I got it... -You know what, Fred?

Uh, I just fixed what others couldn't.

Well, I appreciate it, Roy. Thank you for doing it.

-I really do. -See ya.

-Thanks for coming. -See you in a second, Roy.

Appreciate it.

-Uh... -He's an asshole.

Well, no, he's got a client he's... he's dealing with.

-How's it going, Dad? -It didn't seem right.

It's... it's going fine. It's great.

I don't know any of these people.

-Like, who's that guy? -Well, these are...

these are very important people.

I wrote a few things down in case you wanted.

I should do, uh, a speech,

you know, a toast or whatever.

We're okay, Freddy, don't worry.

-Don't worry about the speech. -No.

What... what happened with the TWA?

I don't like to fly anymore.

Well, that's great, Freddy.

All right, well, look, I... I gotta go see Ivana, so...

Hey, tell her... tell her,

That's congratulations in Czech.

-I looked it up. -I will. I will.

-Oh, shit. -Freddy.

Ah, shit.

-Can you just... -Oh, no, it's on your suit...

Leave it. Put it down.

-Sorry. -Sit down. Sit down.

-Let's see. -Give me a wet glass.

You're looking at me like it's my fault.

You give me a wet glass.

Shit! You're mad with me now.

I ruined everything. Now you're mad with me.

I'm not mad. Listen to me. I'm not mad.

I'm sorry, Donnie.

I am not fucking mad.

Listen to me.

One fucking night. One fucking night.

Can't you fucking keep it together for once?

Stop pissing your fucking life down the river.

You were supposed to be at my dinner.

You were supposed to be at my dinner,

you're my older brother.

Stand up.

Don't be such a fucking bum.

Ready?

-Ready.

I got it!

I got it!

Five, four,

three, two, one.

Happy New Year!

Every major tax cut in this century

has strengthened the economy, by creating new investments,

new jobs and more commerce among our people.

It's time to put America back to work.

Listen, don't sell Koch too hard.

I can handle him. Thanks.

Oh, you know how to handle him, do you?

Listen, this is gonna be a cinch.

Just, uh, let me handle it.

I really think this is gonna be one of the most

exceptional buildings anywhere in the world,

and frankly, there's never been anything like it.

Sixty-eight stories tall, 28 sides, a million square feet,

every unit will have amenities like you wouldn't believe.

And the high floors have

exceptional views over Central Park.

The lobby, the floors will all be marble.

Pink Paradiso marble from Italy.

It will have the largest atrium in the world,

the 60-foot waterfall

spanned by shops and retail and restaurants.

And I think it's gonna be something very special.

Frankly, there's never been anything like it.

And what you gonna call it?

Trump Tower.

Trump Tower?

Oh, that's interesting.

Look, he has a great track record,

so we think this is a very reasonable ask.

Well, I...

as I frequently say about his buildings,

the merits are fine. The thing is,

we're just not gonna give you the tax breaks. Why would we?

I mean, I can't let you get rich on

the backs of the people of New York and their treasury.

-Well, I can't do that, Donald. -Mr. Mayor, first of all...

-Look, Mr. Mayor... -No, you're not...

you're not, Mr. Mayor,

because I'm building a 68-story building

that's gonna employ 5,000 construction workers.

And we have heard stories about the construction workers

working on your projects. They don't get paid.

They have liens against you, Donald.

I'm trying to employ people in New York,

and turn us back around.

-You're trying... -Towards the future,

and you're being a very unfair guy.

Because, frankly, what do you know about me?

What do you know about... the amount of money

that I made on my own?

You don't know anything to be perfectly honest, Mr. Mayor.

You don't know me at all, but you will.

You'll never forget me after this

because I won't forget what you just did.

Trump Tower will be built with or without you.

-Okay.

You're about to be sued, Mr. Mayor.

I think we should attend the Park Ball next month.

The tables are $10,000

and we get to the House Committee.

I don't know. Why would I give money to those snobs?

It's gonna make the park more beautiful.

It's ridiculous, okay?

Trees don't need money to grow.

The city really should let developers build over the park

because it's prime real estate.

It's like, trying to be friends with these Park Avenue phonies.

They don't care about you.

I mean, the way you're posing for the cameras,

it's like you're... you're begging for attention.

Donald, I'm posing because they want to shoot me.

Don't get jealous. Don't get jealous.

I'm not jealous, okay?

-You're getting jealous. -They're jealous of me.

-Getting a little jealous. -No, no, no.

They're jealous of me, Ivana, because nobody

-has tried on any scale... -Because you're with me.

...of what I'm trying to do in the city.

No one's built what I've built at my age.

-All right? -I cannot sit.

It's just... it's Koch, okay?

He's being a piece of work, and that's the problem.

He's not gonna budge.

All right, here, let me help you with the shoes.

He just wants a bit more money.

I gave him $50,000.

-What does Roy say?

Roy is useless. What do you mean, "what did he say?"

By the way, the FBI raided his house this morning.

He owes them seven million dollars in taxes.

But it doesn't matter. I don't need Roy.

I don't need anybody. I'm gonna go on television

and tell the people what a loser Koch is, okay?

And that he's a one line artist

that doesn't care about anything but looking good.

What's the matter with him?

What's the matter with him? Why you crying?

Don Junior, Come here.

Come here. Come here.

Come here. Look at me. Look at me.

Look at me. You see, everything's okay.

Don Junior, everything's okay.

Look over there. You see New York City?

That's your city.

Listen, you're a New York City kid.

Do you see right there? Yes, that one. That one.

Is that one you're favorite? Which one's your favorite?

-I think he's just tired.

Don... It's okay.

I guess I'm terrible with babies.

I don't know what you want me to say.

Who is that? Freddy?

Hey, will you tell this guy who I am?

-He knows. -I'm his brother.

When? When, uh... When did you get into town?

Just a couple of days ago.

I've been calling you, but you didn't return my calls.

Hmm. You don't look too good.

-Yeah. -Are you sick?

I brought this for Don Jr.

Maybe I can go give it to him.

That's okay. That's okay.

Listen, I'll give it to him, all right? I'll give it to him.

What's going on? I didn't know you're in town.

Look, Donald, I know... I know...

You know, I know I'm a loser and all that, but...

You know, my... my grip's kind of...

kind of slipping a little bit, you know, and...

It... it's getting kind of...

you know, things are getting a little bit scary and...

-Hmm. -Ah... You know I want to...

I want to... I want to change...

Mm-hmm.

Just... just take it easy, okay?

It's gonna be all right. We're gonna figure this out.

I'll help you, all right?

-Yeah. -Okay.

That's all right, buddy. We're gonna figure this out.

-All right? Don't worry. -Freddy?

-How are you? -Ivana. Hi.

He got a toy for...

I didn't know you were in the city.

Should I make up the guest room?

Yeah.

Uh, well, I mean, you know, we also have...

didn't you say your family's coming in town, right?

You know, why don't you stay at a hotel tonight?

Here. Get a hotel for the one night,

for... for tonight.

And then, uh, let's talk tomorrow.

You know, we'll sort something out.

All right?

Just... just for tonight. All right?

Come on, Freddy, don't put this on me, all right?

I mean, you think it's easy for me

to watch you waste your life?

Poor Freddy

Donald Trump's biggest accomplishment to date

is the Grand Hyatt.

Now an even more ambitious plan is in the works.

A bold new skyscraper

at prime Fifth Avenue location,

neighboring the famous Tiffany's store.

Taller what... it could have been taller.

It could have been a lot taller actually.

I wanted to build taller than the Twin Towers.

I may still do that I don't know.

-We're still building, so. -We're gonna build...

We're gonna do taller,

but it's not gonna be as beautiful as this one.

It's most important what is it inside

and not what's gonna be outside.

Trump's vision is shared by his wife, Ivana,

a former fashion model turned interior designer

Like come over here.

The floor... the floor is gonna be pink marble.

Gonna be pink marble,

I'm gonna bring a whole mountain from Italy.

Ivana's gonna design the floors.

I'm gonna design the ceilings.

But it's his feud with outspoken Mayor Ed Koch,

that may make him best known to New Yorkers.

Well, he's an one line artist.

Uh, I mean, you know...

Uh, when it comes to running the city,

he's about as bad as anybody I've seen.

I would say he's got no talent and only moderate intelligence.

Is this an appropriate way

to talk about an elected official?

Ed Koch has been a disaster for New York,

and he's... he's done a lousy job as the mayor.

Anybody that lives in New York knows it,

and people understand that in order to be successful,

you have to have a certain instinct to win.

Donald, you're a mover.

You are a doer.

If you could make America perfect,

how would you do it?

Well, I think that America is a country that

has tremendous, tremendous potential.

I think that much like the mind,

I think America is using

very, very little of its potential.

I really feel that. But I also feel that

it's a country that gets

no respect from other countries.

None, zero.

And... and that's a shame, isn't it?

Tell me this. What if you lost

your fortune today, what would you do?

Well, then maybe I'll run for president.

-I don't know. -Well, you'd do very well.

Well, I'm only kidding, obviously,

when I say that. I'm just being facetious.

No, it's a good answer.

Listen, you're gonna love Atlantic City.

I got this guy, Sullivan, he's a killer.

Simon, find a way through.

All right? We've got to get to the heliport.

Oh, is that gay cancer?

Just wiped his face all over the fucking glass.

-Get out of my face.

-Run him over, Simon.

Come on, Simon.

I'm kidding.

Atlantic City is just beginning.

It's virtually untouched land,

there's so much potential.

Atlantic City has peaked, Donald.

Once other states legalize gaming,

you'll have competition lining up.

Plus, you don't know the first thing

-about running a casino. -I know a lot about a casino, Roy.

I'm not worried about that.

Why don't you finish Trump Tower first.

It's done. Basically finished.

I think your balls are swelling

-a little too much. -It's gonna be fine, Roy.

You gotta... You gotta think about the future.

The future is coming. The future is here right now.

The future is in Atlantic City.

I see now. This is what a goldmine looks like

-in human flesh. -Unbelievable.

-Unbelievable, huh? -People see what you building...

He's excited. You now excited, yeah?

-Excited face. -All right.

Hey, did you win?

Did you win?

-How many times? -You look like a winner.

-Where are you from? -Georgia

Georgia's my favorite.

-How many machines? -Sixty-seven machines.

Well, we're gonna put in 3000, all right?

And then we'll pack every grandma

in the world in this place.

We're gonna suck this place dry.

Applying for a gaming license

is gonna take, uh, eight, ten months minimum.

Not if you're this guy.

-Not if you're this guy. -Always losing back there.

Look, this place is about as much Las Vegas

as my Aunt Libby is Grace Kelly.

It's gonna be better than Las Vegas.

It's totally cheap and grubby...

Roy, you're being so negative all day.

What is this? Is this free food?

Wow. Well, I might have to get in there.

Cheese balls over here.

Ooh! It looks nice and hot.

-What are you doing? -Do you want one?

No, it looks totally disgusting.

Cheeseballs.

Listen, what do you think about midget boxing?

I don't think very much about midget boxing, Donald.

When I do Trump Tower, people love it.

Everything I do is turning to gold, all right?

Everything's gonna work out.

But this is... this is not a gold mine.

You're expanding too fast.

-Okay? -Here we go.

You're gonna be over-leveraged,

and you're gonna have debt up to your ears,

and I don't advise it.

I know what I'm doing, okay?

You've been negative the whole day.

I mean, what's going on?

Well, I'm getting a little tired of you not listening

to me anymore.

I do listen to you, just act a little bit more

like my attorney and less like my dad

because I already got one, he's pain in the ass.

Fine, you know?

You know what lawyers do, Donald?

They charge their clients.

Okay.

Send me the bill.

That make you feel better?

Good, fine. I'll send you a bill.

Great.

I can pay you because I have money.

Because I'm successful, right?

-All right? -I'm sorry, Mr. Trump.

And, uh, who... who...

Listen, I'm worried about you.

You're stressed, you're sensitive.

I mean, what's going on?

Telephone for you.

Yes.

Mom?

What's going on?

What?

When?

"He maketh me lie down

"in the green pastures,

"He leadeth me beside still waters.

"He restoreth my soul,

"he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness..."

"Preparest a table before me

"in the presence of mine enemies..."

What?

I'm fine, Ivana.

You don't need to be fine.

Okay.

Look at me.

Do you like what you see?

Hey.

I'm fine.

-I'm fine. -You don't need to be.

I'm fine. Stop.

Don't...

Don't come near me.

It's gonna be okay.

Donald.

Donald.

Please stop looking at me and stop touching me.

Fantastic. I feel great.

Is it glamorous or is it glamorous? What is it?

When you're willing to spend

the kind of money that I've spent...

I hear you're gonna perform tonight...

Smile.

A lot of people said Trump Tower could not be done.

In fact, our loser mayor tried everything to deny the city

this great building. And he's lost, consistently lost.

But we've got the best people buying in,

Carson, Spielberg, Prince Charles and Diana,

everybody wants a piece of Trump.

Fantastic, fantastic. Oh, I think I see Mr. Cohn.

How are you, Randy?

-Well, how you doing tonight? -I'm good.

I'm very excited. It's very exciting.

I'll call you.

I've never met anyone who reminds me more of myself.

Donald, he's got grit.

He is relentless in the pursuit of perfection.

Look at this. It's a masterpiece, uh...

marble waterfalls.

Listen, I could have built it taller than

the Twin Towers, if I wanted.

Gentlemen, enjoy your night.

Good to see you, Randy.

Donald, could... could I talk to you for a minute?

Yeah, sure. How are you?

You look like shit. Can I get an ice water?

I know it's a bad time, I just...

What's going on? Are you tired?

I'm just overworked, that's all.

All right.

-Well, maybe you should try these. -What are those?

Diet pills. I got it from my doctor.

They're amazing for everything.

Energy, sleep. I don't need to sleep anymore.

Are you sure that's a good thing?

Well, I can't do deals when I sleep,

so yeah, that's a good thing.

Listen, I just... I need to ask you a little favor.

Sure.

I was wondering if you might...

be able to put Russell up at the Hyatt.

Why?

The country house is... it's too cold for him.

Uh, he has pneumonia.

Get him a blanket.

Russell's a good kid and he's...

he's very loyal, and it would mean a lot to me.

Listen, he never helped me, but I'll do it for you.

No problem. All right? Come over here for a second.

-Well... -You think she looks good?

Oh, sure, she looks like a real beauty queen.

I mean, every night

she comes home telling me what to do.

I feel like I'm married to a business partner.

I don't... I don't feel anything.

I look at her and it's like... whatever.

At least I got her to do her tits.

-Oh, yeah? -They're amazing.

-Wait up. -Ah.

Takido-san.

-Hey! How are you? -There you are.

Hey, listen, I want... I want you to see this...

What is it with Roy?

You realize he looks sick?

No, it's fine.

-No, no, no. -How are you?

-What do you think? -Oh, I loved this. Lovely.

I planned it myself.

Well, I let her do all the easy stuff.

So tell me, how do you like it?

-How we doing, Dad? -Oh, hey!

-How's the view?

It's all right.

I wonder what the electric bill is for that...

that... that seems impractical.

Don't worry about that, Dad.

You know what this reminds me of?

When I built the Trump Tower in Coney Island,

Trump Village. You built Trump Village.

I built Trump Tower.

-Right. -This is Trump Tower.

Right. That's what I meant.

But when I...

when I built that high rise in Trump Village,

boats could see you 20 miles out to sea.

This is very different than that, Dad, okay?

This is... this is the big league.

-The big time. -Oh.

You know...

I've been meaning to say, you know...

I know...

that I've been tough on you, right?

But look at you now.

Huh?

You're a killer.

A king.

Right?

Right?

Try some caviar.

It's the best.

Gorgeous.

Hey.

I got you a gift.

"The G Spot?"

The G Spot.

"Experiment with your G spot,

"as you may have done with your clitoris.

"And if and when you learned to masturbate that way..."

Oh, that's... great!

It's, uh... great.

-Wanna go upstairs?

Listen, uh...

I gotta tell you... I'm...

I'm just not attracted to you anymore.

Donald.

Really. I mean, every time I...

I kiss you, I feel, like, you know...

it's my duty or something.

I mean, it's, uh...

-Oh... -I'm touching you,

I'm touching those fake plastic tits.

I mean, I feel weird.

They were your idea. You made me do it.

Well, maybe they were a mistake.

Donald. Donald.

Can you tell me what is happening?

You're behaving like an animal and you're hurting me.

-Why are you doing this? -Oh, uh...

You don't care how it makes me feel?

Just trying to be honest. I'm really... I'm telling you,

Oh, my God, I don't know what's happening.

Is it because of the stupid pills that you're taking?

I think what's happening is you're getting a bigger head

because you're forgetting your story.

-You came over here to... -My story?

...from Eastern Czechoslofuckingvakia,

whatever the fuck it is.

And you married me.

And where did you come from, Donny?

Where did you come from? Hmm?

Queens. Have you looked at yourself in the mirror, huh?

Have you?

-I have. What's your point? -Your face look like an orange.

- You're getting fat. -Right.

You're getting ugly.

You're a rude and terrible, terrible person.

You're getting bald. You're disgusting.

-Bald? I'm not fucking bald!

Donald!

-Fuck!

Donald!

Is that your G-spot, huh? Is that your G-spot?

- Huh? -Please, Donald.

Did I find it? Did I fucking find it, huh?

-How does that feel?

-Does it feel good, huh?

-Yeah.

Two new casinos in Atlantic City

in just two years,

Donald Trump has been on an impressive shopping spree.

There seems to be no limits to the expansion of his empire.

Japan? You're the best. Lot of money.

Lot of money in Japan, huh.

From sea to the sky,

some say the age of Trump has begun.

Trump Tower, Trump City, Trump Plaza, Trump Castle.

-Does ego come into play? -It sells, Mike. It sells.

It has nothing to do with the ego.

It sells.

Here he comes, folks.

I can't believe it.

That's your man.

-How's it going? -Uh...

There she is.

-This is all thanks to my wife. -Welcome.

She's a hell of a manager.

She even cleans the floors herself.

He's so funny.

Let's go, Donald!

You'll be very happy. Very happy.

Hi!

-Fuck! -Ah! What's going on?

Can you stop for a second? Stop for a second stop.

Forget it.

Nothing, nothing.

Nothing, I'm just, uh...

I'm just overwhelmed, you know? I got a lot going on.

These people are crawling up my ass down there.

We got these coin machines.

They're supposed to wait eight hours.

They got to replace them in two hours.

There's never been people that are playing that fast

and that hard.

Like I told you, fellas, we're gonna be number one.

Number one. Nobody competes with it.

Donald, we need to talk about...

And by the way, here's the difference.

We're talking about Atlantic City,

-not Las Vegas. Great job. -Donald!

Wait, what do we have in Atlantic City?

We've got the ocean.

We've got the ocean right here, fellas.

We're gonna also make this the boxing Mecca.

I was talking to Don King about bringing Mike Tyson,

various, uh, situation's over here,

because that's gonna be a lot of money.

You know what I mean? I think like a prize fighter.

I don't like to tell people where I want to go,

what I want to do.

I want to just roll with the punches. You know what I mean?

And I think that's gonna be good for Atlantic City.

That's great. But we've been hearing the exact same thing

since you nearly defaulted

on your loan payment last quarter.

Yeah, but there's never been anything like this,

of this magnitude, this quality.

The Taj Mahal is gonna be the eighth wonder of the...

All right, you listen to me, you son of a bitch!

If you don't make a goddamn payment

by the end of this month,

my bankruptcy attorneys are gonna be up your ass.

My credit is good, my credit is solid,

and you fellas have nothing to worry about.

Last warning, Donald. I got people to answer to.

Do you gamble, Roger?

Like to gamble, huh? Played a little slot machine?

I like to make money, not lose it.

Well, let me tell you something,

there's gonna be a lot of grandmas in Atlantic City

that are gonna be very happy with that.

-Oh, yeah. -Okay?

The budget, $1 billion.

-Wow! -You gotta come stay.

Very Eastern flair, huh?

-This is something. -Well, it is. It is.

-Yes.

I've got Roy on the phone.

Tell him I'll call him back.

Hey, listen. Reagan's making this country so fucking rich,

you can't lose.

-Well... -I'm telling you, Donald.

He stands for all the things you care about.

Lower taxes, cutting regulations.

A powerful military.

-Oh, I like that. -Like it used to be, right?

-Yes. We need that. -We do.

-We need that. -Hey. In fact,

we have a brand new campaign slogan.

Listen to this.

"Let's make America great again."

Wow.

Hmm.

Well, I like the "again" part,

you know, points to a great past.

It does. Not many people see that?

Well, I do, okay? Because I love this country.

And I'm tired of seeing this country getting ripped off

like you wouldn't believe.

It's losing $200 billion a year, Roger.

-Yeah. -200 billion.

Does Reagan know that?

Because all of these oil sheikhs,

and the Japs, and the welfare queens,

and the union thugs are sucking us dry.

-You're right. -It's time to get smart.

And it's time to get tough,

because otherwise there's not gonna be a country,

and there's not gonna be a world.

-And you know who's tough? -You.

The Soviets, they get it, believe me.

You're talking about tough and strong.

Listen, you want me to read about the missiles,

it's gonna take me an hour and a half.

I probably know most about it anyway.

Donald, I'm telling you, I love how passionate you are.

Have you thought about running for office?

Well, look, I'd run very well, right?

-I mean, but, no, no. -No?

Come on, Roger, let me tell you something.

Government is for losers.

Come on, you'd do great.

Hey, I know politicians, Roger, okay?

I know politicians better than anyone.

And some of them are smart. Very few.

But most are dumber than a rock.

- Yeah. -Let's be honest, okay?

I give money to politicians, so they do what I want.

They're all very corrupt and stupid.

Okay? And you know that, Roger. But you know what?

I'd love a blow job on Air Force One.

I think that'd be pretty fabulous. All right?

Hey, I'm sure it's happened before.

Can you make that happen?

Yeah, well, hey, hey. Call me if you change your mind.

Listen, you get me on that Air Force One, we'll talk.

- Okay. -All right.

Tell Ronnie he's got my support.

-You got it.

-Hang on one second. Yes? -Roy is on the phone again.

I'll call him later.

Anyway.

Hey, uh, Donald, before I go, have you seen Roy lately?

Uh, no. I'm gonna call him back, and we're gonna talk.

Why?

-You haven't heard? -Heard what?

Well, uh, Russell has AIDS.

-He's sick as a dog. -Mmm.

-That's... Wow, that's terrible. -Yeah.

Hey, he's still your lawyer?

Well, he's not my lawyer, per se.

I mean, I have a number of attorneys, right?

Different lawyers, different things.

-But... -Mmm.

That's really terrible, Roger.

-Yeah. Yeah. -Yeah.

-Well, the world's a mess. -Goodbye, Donald.

Yep.

Fiona!

Come over here.

Uh...

What did Roy say?

Not too much, but he's called three times.

Does he sound sick?

A little bit. Yeah, he's got a cough.

All right. If he calls again, just tell him

I'm out of the office, all right?

And if he shows up, put him in the conference room,

by himself. Okay?

-Will that be all? -That's it. Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you, thank you.

Thank you, thank you. All right.

-Donald. -Thank you very much. Roy!

Long time no see.

Is this some kind of a goddamn joke?

What is that?

This... This is how you thank me?

The manager at the Hyatt kicked Russell out.

All right, that's probably a mistake.

Oh, fuck you, Donald!

Fuck you.

Oh, your office sent me the bill.

-It's a mistake, Roy. -Don't you try me.

Remember who taught you this stuff.

I'll call them, all right? I'll just... I'll fix it.

You ungrateful, fucking cocksucking nobody.

-Roy... -I made you.

Don't you forget that. I made you.

-Pretty sure I made myself. -Uh, no.

-You were a loser then. -Hey, listen...

-And you're still a loser. -Listen, uh...

Okay, Roy, listen, I'm running a business here, okay?

Guests complained about Russell's condition.

What you lied about, by the way.

All right? So that's what happened.

It's not my fault.

Really? What are you trying to say?

I hear that he's sick.

-Really sick. -Yeah, he's got pneumonia.

-He's got pneumonia? -That's right.

Is that the name for it now on the street?

Watch out. Maybe you'll get it.

You know? You don't want that.

What, are you scared of me?

No. It's a little cold out.

-You know? -Right.

Good to see that you've, uh...

lost the last traces of decency you once had.

Well, I learned from the best, Roy,

what can I say?

I love you, too.

You've got some feelings now, suddenly?

You're the fucking devil.

-I don't recognize you anymore. -You're the fucking devil.

Get the fuck out of here!

-You scare me. -You fucking old man.

You're no saint. You're not God.

Why don't you go save him?

Save him over there.

Don't get sick, Roy

Dad! There's the big man.

Oh!

-Look at this guy, huh? -Ah!

-Looks great. -Look a this guy.

You look good, Dad.

-You look great. -Ah. Good.

-Irwin Mishkin. -This is Irwin.

This man's got 195 IQ, all right?

-The best. -Oh.

-Irwin, where'd you go to school? -Columbia.

-Oh, boy. -He's a New Yorker.

You're a smarty pants, huh?

He's my new Roy Cohn.

-Oh! -All right. Go ahead.

Listen, Dad, I bought some land under the Empire State Building.

Oh, boy.

Irwin, you love the Empire State Building?

The best building.

How many units can you put in there?

Don't worry about it. Listen, take a look at that.

Irwin's got a couple of things to say.

Yeah, Mr. Trump, my office had a request

relating to the trust.

This will allow us to avail ourselves

of some new tax breaks

-and reduce the overall... -Oh-kay.

...the taxation on the trust.

So with your signature here,

we'll be putting Donald in as the trustee for the trust.

And that will allow you to not have to...

Save you a lot of taxes, Dad.

-Okay. -Absolutely.

-For the trust. -That's right.

And you want me to sign here?

Yes, I do.

-Oh, really? Uh, they...

Mom, what are you doing? We don't have time.

I gotta get back in the city.

Listen, Mom, we don't have time.

-Dad, go ahead. -Is that the tea?

-Please sign right there. -Donald.

-What is this? -This is for the trust, Mary.

-Oh, let me take a look. -Look at the, uh...

-It's just a formality for you. -And who are you?

This is... This is my attorney.

But this is your siblings' trust.

I understand. Listen...

You're jeopardizing your siblings' trust.

No, I'm not jeopardizing anything.

I have some loans

that need to be guaranteed,

and I gotta just get these bankers off my back.

-What... -Okay?

I just need to show the bankers that I'm good.

Your father is a little confused.

He's not the right person to be signing this document.

That's why we should have,

as you should know as a lawyer...

-Mom. -...sound mind.

Who's going to look after this family, okay?

Who's going to look after this family

when he can't fucking spell his name?

Don't.

Language. Donald...

Let's go, Irwin. Come on.

-Uh... -Mom, you don't understand.

-What is the rush?

I'm looking out for the family, all right?

-Language, Donald. -I'm looking out for the family.

I'm pretty much sure that nobody else is doing that.

Not Elizabeth, not Mary.

Not fucking Freddy.

No, you do not speak his name!

You have no right.

It's time for you to go.

...the other fellow with the dark hair...

Okay. You need to stop consuming these immediately.

I thought they were like vitamins.

It's amphetamines. It's cheap speed.

Erectile dysfunction is one of the many side effects.

I didn't have that problem, but, you know, I eat...

I mean, we all like to eat, Doc.

-Right? You know. -Mm-hmm.

Did you see this? Are you seeing this?

It keeps growing. Everything is growing.

And I'm not talking about my hair.

Uh, have you tried exercise?

-No, no. Absolutely not. -Why not?

You know that's gonna kill you, right, Doc?

First of all, the body is like a battery.

It has finite energy and it runs out.

-Okay, that's not true. -That is totally the truth.

-Totally the truth. -Donald...

The problem that I'm having is I'm just...

I need to stop growing, that's all.

Okay.

-We have surgical options. -That sounds great.

Okay. Yeah.

So with an incision here, here and here,

we're going to get rid of the ab fat,

and we're going to get the love-handles gone too.

Well, I hate the love handles.

What about my hair?

Okay, you've got some male pattern baldness.

And that's normal?

It is, absolutely, okay?

But it doesn't have to be, you know?

You'll talk to our in-house specialist...

About a scalp reduction?

We're gonna cover that up easily.

-Okay. -Okay?

Getting old sucks. Do you know what I mean?

-Yes. -Did you ever feel that way?

Well, a lot of my patients do.

One more question.

What do you think about AIDS?

-What do... -What do you think about AIDS?

-What do I think about it? -Yeah. How do people get it?

Because it's not just homosexuals, Doc.

-Right. -You know?

The research indicates, HIV,

it spreads through the exchange of blood or semen.

-Semen? Yeah. -Yes.

Well, and what if they touch you?

What if somebody touches you?

-Or they breathe on you -That's okay.

They can... They can breathe on you.

That's okay.

Okay.

The legal establishment in the state of New York

wants to take away Roy Cohn's license to practice law.

-They say he's dishonest. -

They want to disbar him for allegedly

playing fast and loose with clients' money.

How are you. Roy?

I'm terrific, Mike. It's great to see you.

This is what the disciplinary committee

of the bar says about you.

"Total lack of moral character and professional fitness.

"And a cruel public use of your illness."

That's a pack of lies

because I've never used my illness

to plead for anything.

I've called them a bunch of yo-yos,

and that's what they are, Mike.

They're a bunch of yo-yos.

Mm-hmm.

When I tell friends that I'm going to

do a profile on you,

the question on everyone's mind is that...

And I'm sure you know what I'm going to say.

Do you have AIDS?

Oh. No, I mean, that's easy.

I have liver cancer.

Uh, which...

they found moves in strange directions.

Uh, but there's...

Categorically, I do not have AIDS.

I'm sure you know why people ask about AIDS, Roy Cohn.

Because they believe you're a homosexual.

Well, that's a lie.

-Every facet of my personality,

my aggressiveness, my toughness,

and everything along those lines,

is just totally incompatible...

Hello, it's Roy.

Roy, it's Donald. How are you?

Donald, how are you?

Great. How are you?

Listen, I watched Mike Wallace.

Right. Well, how did I do?

You owned it.

Did I look...

-Did I look weak? -Well, listen...

He's an asshole, you know?

Frankly, he asked nasty questions.

How's Russell?

Oh. Russell died.

I'm sorry, Roy. I didn't know.

You're not sounding very good.

-New York is a mess.

I mean, these bankers, they got no feel for the deal.

And everyone's crawling up my ass about the debt.

Don't even get me started about Ivana.

I mean, she's a bitch.

So you thought, uh, give old Roy a call

and ask for some free legal advice.

I mean, is there anyone better?

Come on.

I miss you, Roy.

You're the only guy that cared.

You're the only guy that gave a shit...

about me.

Listen, I have this property in Florida.

You're gonna love it. I think you should come down.

-Yeah? -Let's get you out to the ocean.

How do you feel, though? You feel all right now?

Oh, sure.

I feel like a million bucks.

Because you don't look that bad.

You know, if I had my way, I'll be as thin as you.

I'm gonna do this procedure.

You know, they suck the fat from under your skin.

And also, don't tell anybody, but...

I get them to remove my bald patch.

You... you look like the fellow from Miami Vice.

Who dressed you for crying out loud?

It's this broad I'm banging, Carly.

She's, uh,

got great big natural tits.

You want to see? Look at that.

Look at that.

She's a ten.

It was built to be the winter White House.

Wow!

These walls are all silk tapestries.

And, uh, the ceiling is all gold.

It's pretty impressive.

And they wanted a condo in it. Can you believe that?

What happened to your leg?

I didn't pay them on time.

That's what happened.

Ivana wants to turn this into Camelot.

I mean, that's what she's saying.

I was like, "Please don't compare us to the Kennedys."

What?

Got you a little, uh...

a little birthday gift.

For me?

It's your birthday.

Oh, you didn't have to do that, Donald.

Come on, 59.

But who's counting, huh?

Tiffany diamonds and look what it says.

Trump.

What do you think?

Uh...

It is terrific.

Yeah, they're gonna look good.

Oh, look at this.

Did you see this?

Donald got me diamond cufflinks for my birthday.

Beautiful, right?

My darling, this is cheap pewter.

The stone is zirconia.

They're fake.

Donald has no shame.

Everyone, I just... I just want to say a few words.

Tonight, we're celebrating a really great guy,

Roy Cohn.

Roy is tough.

Some say vicious, even scary.

I mean, look at him.

That's not exactly a face you want to bring home

to your mother. Am I right?

But, um, you know, with Roy, it's about friendship, right?

He has to like you.

And if he doesn't? Forget it.

-He has to like you, right?

Thank God he liked me.

And I mean, I don't know,

I mean, he must have thought I was a baby or something,

because, you know, I don't drink,

I don't smoke, I don't take drugs.

I have other problems

which I don't want to tell you about.

-But, uh...

For whatever reason, he liked me.

But the truth is as tough as Roy is,

and he is brutal,

he, uh, truly is a loyal guy.

It's a matter of honor with him.

And, um, frankly, he's a hero.

Happy Birthday, Roy.

-To Roy. -This is to you.

Happy birthday.

And mazel tov.

Well...

I don't know what to say, um...

Thank you, Donald.

Twenty-four carat American patriot and a friend.

I know you're going to go on to do a a lot of things

that would make me very proud.

-Thank you. -Well, it's not over yet, Roy.

-What? My life?

Let's hope not. Maybe not tonight.

Stay alive for a little longer, Roy.

I gotta go to bed, I think

Sorry.

There he is, huh? Greatest writer of all time.

-How you doing? -Sorry, Tony.

I was with a contractor.

-That's all good. -Wow. Here we go.

Here we are.

Where do you want to start?

Let's see if this is gonna be a negative book.

Well, honestly, I'm amazed that you asked me

to write this book, Mr. Trump,

considering the article I wrote on you

-wasn't exactly flattering. -Yeah, well...

You put me on the cover of New York Magazine

and you can write, that's the most important thing.

Now you just have to be nice to me

because I'm paying you.

Sure you are.

So I was looking through some of your interviews,

and I'm finding it hard to settle

on a grand narrative for the book.

Yes, you like making deals.

Oh, I'm gonna stop you right there, Tony.

I don't... I don't like making deals.

Do you understand?

I love making deals.

I love making deals. The bigger the better.

-But to what end? -To what end?

Deals are the end. I mean,

that's like asking Da Vinci,

why he painted the Mona Lisa.

You consider yourself an artist?

Well, I am an artist, Tony, and deals are my art form.

Look, making deals is an art form,

and I want to put this in the book.

It's something that you're born with.

You either have it or you don't have it, okay?

And if you don't have it, don't do deals.

Just get a beautiful job, have a nice family and relax.

"The Art of the Deal."

That sounds good.

You know, I like that. That's...

I think people will buy into that.

Well, let's see, Tony, I'd buy that book.

Okay, let's go back to your childhood.

Uh, living in Queens. What was that like?

Well, I had a great child, very normal.

Uh, wonderful parents, supportive parents.

And, you know, my dad was tough,

and he helped me develop a killer instinct.

-And? -And yeah...

Frankly, you know, I don't want to...

I don't like to talk too much about the past, Tony.

You dwell on the past, you go right down the tubes.

This is just to give the reader some context.

Tony.

Don't come here busting my balls,

looking for some deep shit. All right?

I hear when everybody tries to dig around your life

looking for some deep shit.

We're all animals.

Everybody wants to get rich

and have other people suck their cock.

Everybody wants to win, Tony.

And that's the truth of it.

-But that won't read well. -Well, that's the truth of it.

But it's not the truth we're looking for right now.

Right now, people need to think

there's some sort of special sauce.

Principles, set of rules that make you different.

Well. that's easy because I have my rules.

I got three rules, okay?

They're my three rules of winning.

Rule One. The world is a mess, okay?

The world is a mess, Tony.

You have to fight back.

You have to have a tough skin.

Attack, attack, attack.

If somebody comes after you with a knife,

you shoot him back with a bazooka. Okay?

Rule two.

What is truth, Tony?

What is truth?

You know what's truth?

What you say is truth.

What I say is truth. What he says is truth.

What is the truth in life?

Deny everything. Admit nothing.

You know what's true? What I say is true.

And third of all, the most important.

No matter how fucked you are,

you never, ever, ever admit defeat,

you always claim victory.

Always.

You know, that sounds like the US foreign policy

for the past quarter century.

Well, unlike that, this actually works.

And I won a lot, Tony.

I won a lot. And even when they said I didn't,

I still turned it into a win.

And that was the difference.

So how do you combine these set of rules?

Well, I have an instinct, Tony. I have a killer instinct.

I always have.

Listen, Tony, you have to have a natural ability.

I'm a big believer in natural ability,

and a lot of that is genetics.

You have to be born with it, you know?

And some people aren't, and some people are.

And that's the difference.

You have to have it.
