The ultimate shrewdness is found not in the balance sheet, but in the qualitative excellence of the business.

What would you have had Trump read before his "little gray cells" stopped working?
The Constitution. But his advisors tried to get him to read it during his 1st term as POTUS. He wouldn't. So, then they tried reading it to him, but he cut them off. It was boring and had no relevance to him.
Witnesses, including those quoted in Michael Wolff's book Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump Wiite White House, have claimed that Donald Trump's advisors and aides tried to explain or read the Constitution to him during his first term, but he showed little interest or understanding.
Specific Incident: Sam Nunberg, a former adviser to the Trump campaign, stated that he attempted to read the Fourth Amendment to Trump, but "his finger is pulling down on his lip and his eyes are rolling back in his head".
General Behavior: Aides and advisors reported that Trump often refused to read detailed briefings, preferring one-page summaries, and demonstrated a lack of familiarity with constitutional basics.
Context: These claims were part of a broader narrative among some former aides and administration officials regarding Trump's approach to the presidency, with critics alleging a disregard for constitutional norms and, in some cases, a limited understanding of the U.S. government's structure.
All plainly obvious.
