Exclusive Excerpt
Trump Be Trump
Breitbart News has been provided with an exclusive preview of and excerpt from the new book   Let  Trump  Be  Trump   by Corey Lewandowski and David Bossie  published by Center Street and available on December 5  2017.
From Let  Trump  Be Trump:
âI want you to know I have the greatest air force in the world â  Trump  began  unprompted  in Coreyâs first meeting with the candidate. âIâve got a 757  Iâve got a Citation X. And Iâve got three helicopters.â Corey sat there with a half smile on his face  not knowing quite how to respond.
When  Donald Trump  listed the aircraft  he  had during Coreyâs job interview  Corey shrugged it off as a random boast. But  Trump  wasnât boasting.  He  was pointing out the military equipment  he  had for the war ahead. A candidate with a jet has a formidable advantage over rivals without one. A candidate with an air force was going to be tough to beat.
When you flew with  Trump   you flew first class times ten. Except  that is  when it came time to eat.
The first time Dave told his wife Susan that he was going to be on Trump Force One  she asked him to take some photos of what they served him to eat on the plane. She had read somewhere that  Mr. Trump  had a personal chef who traveled with  him . When dinner came on the flight  Dave pulled out his BlackBerry and snapped a picture of the bag of McDonaldâs hamburgers and unopened package of Oreo cookies and emailed it to Susan.
On Trump Force One there were four major food groups: McDonaldâs  Kentucky Fried Chicken  pizza  and Diet Coke. There were also ancillary groups  including Vienna Fingers and the ubiquitous Oreo  before the boycott (after it was Hydrox). The reason the package of Oreos was unopened was because  Mr. Trump  would never eat from a previously opened package. If youâve seen the Seinfeld episode in which George double-dips  his  chip  you have a pretty good idea of the bossâs reasoning. Packages of cookies  along with small airliner-size bags of pretzels and potato chips  filled the planeâs cupboards. An army might march on its stomach  but Trumpâs team flew on junk food. And those snacks would have to sustain us during long flights and even longer days.
The candidate would hardly ever eat lunch and would eat dinner only after he finished the last event of the day. Weâd be in the jet or on the road from seven or eight a.m.  make however many scheduled stops we had  and after the last one  perhaps around nine p.m.   Mr. Trump  would clap  his  hands and say  âLetâs eat!â And the food needed to be hot and ready for  him . Some of the time  especially when  he  was pleased with  his  performance at a rally or event   he âd say  âDo you think I deserve a malted today? I think I deserve one.â  Trump   a city kid  grew up drinking malteds  so thatâs what he always called a milkshake. Whatever you want to call it  it better be there and it better still be thick.
When traveling in the air with the boss  you also learned pretty quickly to like Elton John.  Donald Trump  really likes Elton John. Anthony âthe Moochâ Scaramucci got in all sorts of hot waterâwhich is not at all an unfamiliar position for himâwhen he told an interviewer that Elton John would play at President Trumpâs inaugural. It had been wishful thinking on Moochâs part  probably because heâd been on the plane when the boss had âTiny Dancerâ or âRocket Manâ playing as loud as the concert-level speakers could bring it. Weâre telling you  when the boss cranks up Elton  you canât hear yourself think. The music is loud enough to rattle your brain.
