Stefan Schwartz also says Trump has an "early high school" reading level (Duh?!!)
Usually, when you move on from a job, the incredibly irritating aspects of former colleagues turn into foibles on which burnished anecdotes hinge on. You treat them more kindly in retrospect, now that you don't have to breathe the same air as them eight hours a day. It functions like entropy, but specifically for people who heat fish up in the microwave.
Donald Trump apparently does not enjoy that effect. His ghostwriter on The Art of the Deal, Tony Schwartz, told Reddit during an Ask Me Anything session that the president is "the most purely evil human being" Schwartz has ever met.

From your link:
~~~
Cartoonist Scott Adams, in the run up to the election and after, has talked about Donald Trump having a near mystical level of persuasion.
Having interacted with the man, what do you think? Is he actually good at this one skill, or do people just believe him because they're predisposed to believe him?

I definitely wouldn't call his persuasiveness mystical. What it does have are two key components: First, he is relentless. He keeps coming at you and coming at you until you finally throw up your hands and say "No Mas." It's akin to the way Harvey Weinstein was in assaulting women, and to the way I imagine Trump was with the many women he pursued (I was never privy to that part of his life). And finally, yes, people do believe him in significant part because they're aggrieved, and they sense he's aggrieved too, even if he's had every imaginable material advantage in life -- $400 million inherited in his 20s -- and most of the people who worship him are aggrieved because they don't have much at all. They've hitched their horse to the wrong wagon.

You might want to fact check the “400 million inherited in his 20’s” Mujer de Buho.
Not even close.
“The New York Times reported Jan. 2 that Fred Sr.’s will "divided the bulk of the inheritance, at least $20 million, among his children and their descendants, ‘other than my son Fred C. Trump Jr.’ "

You can explain Trump's poor reading skills by Dyslexia. He has also shown such poor levels of understanding. He is embarrassed to show he cannot read well. But that does not explain his 5th-grade vocabulary. It does not show his teenage twittering and name-calling.
Trump is a great example of arrested development. He never grew up because he was spoiled and did not have to. We should have left him in NY .

DYSLEXIA doesn't make you a WHORE. I've known several dyslexics including my brother--though his was never formally diagnosed. Trump is perverse man in all matters of character. And a whore for money and attention. Dyslexia might have hampered his READING capabilities but modern technology goes one HELLUVA WAY to compensate for that.

Ra-men. "Arrested development" is about the most apt description of his demeanor, behavior, intellectual level (hahahaha), emotional status, and ignorance of societal norms. If he was an every day regular person at median income, he would probably be divorced (more than once), estranged from his kids and family, few friends other than losers like himself, had several different jobs, disliked by neighbors and coworkers.
