JUST A MAN OF THE (SPECIAL) PEOPLE:
Leaked Trump tape: 'You are the special people' : Exclusive audio shows how Trump lets loose at his clubs -- inviting guests to join him on staff interviews (DARREN SAMUELSOHN and ANNIE KARNI 02/18/17, Politico)
Turning to a longtime club member that night, he said: "We were just talking about who we [are] going to pick for the FCC, who [are] we going to pick for this, who we gonna accept -- boy, can you give me some recommendations?"The supportive crowd ate it up as the relaxed Trump, in his element, gave them a close-up view of how he was setting up the government. "You are the special people," he told the crowd of about 100 members, who mingled around a sushi station served by a waiter wearing a camouflage "Make America Great Again" cap.
