has lost his entire family in an accident is, naturally, devastated. But to
                work  effectively  with  his  customers,  he  must  appear  cheerful  and
                confident. That’s part of his persona. It’s a survival device.
                     The only danger is when  people become their personae.  That means

                As  I  am  very  much  in  the  public  eye,  this  hit  home  and  I  gave  it
                considerable thought. Fortunately, I am aware of my public side as well as
                my private side, and, while I’m not one for hiding much, I know there are
                several dimensions in which I operate. That’s one reason I feel at home at
                The Trump Organization. The people I work with day in and day out know

                I’m not entirely a glam guy. They see how hard I work. One person said I
                am very much like a Mormon, which I took as high praise.
