Announcing his candidacy for the Republican nomination back in June 2015, Donald Trump stated "We need a leader that wrote 'The Art of the Deal' ". Tony Schwartz was the ghostwriter of the book Trump calls 'his proudest achievement'. Schwartz has been vocal about his regrets in working on the piece, but, having worked intimately with Trump, provides a fascinating perspective into the personality and idiosyncrasies of the Republican nominee

ABOUT THE OXFORD UNION SOCIETY: The Oxford Union is the world's most prestigious debating society, with an unparalleled reputation for bringing international guests and speakers to Oxford. Since 1823, the Union has been promoting debate and discussion not just in Oxford University, but across the globe.

The Oxford Union is deeply grateful and encouraged by the messages of support in response to our determination to uphold free speech. During our 200 year history, many have tried to shut us down. As the effects of self-imposed censorship on university campuses, social media and the arts show no signs of dissipating, the importance of upholding free speech remains as critical today as it did when we were founded in 1823.

    EVERYTHING that he predicted has come true. Well, not everything. He predicted months of anger when Trump lost. Instead it's been years!
  • Freaky how accurate he turned out to be. It's horrible what one man's ego is doing to America.
  • @EmilyWilkie-323
    We ,as voters,need to hear the truth about Donald Trump's character, who he really is,not who he wants us to know. Our country has been so damaged by him in the last few years. All Americans need to have this information so we make better choices in the near future so we can save our democracy !!
  • @lindamutch191
    I stand corrected sir. You did speak out 6 years ago. So sorry I didn’t see or hear your statements. I give you a grand hug of support!!! Thank you!!
  • @Suelorie
    Oh if only people listened to this! This is my first time listening to this and man was he right on about how Trump would act if he lost the election-Trump is doing everything Schwartz said he would.
  • @richh813
    It take extream soul searching to come out publicly and take a crap on one's poor actions of the past. Kudos to you Tony!
  • @annekillen7472
    Watching this today, 7 years after it was filmed, it’s as if Tony Schwartz had a crystal ball 😮
  • Wonder how many laughed at him thinking none of this could possibly happen when he actually didn't go far enough. Knowing what he knows he was a brave man to go up against this maniac.
  • Astonishing dead-on description 😮. It would be great if he could be interviewed again today in 2024…Thank you
  • @joycecochran2774
    I just”found”this and I too was amazed at how close he described Jan. 6th., 2021. His description of who Trump’s supporters are is also so true. Unfortunately, that force has only grown since 2016. And now the Republican Party has fractured over that force.
  • @juliesmith4548
    Did anyone post this on Facebook? This was 7 years ago. Scarey. It should be shared widely!!!
  • To me, the puzzle was never, what kind of person is Donald Trump, but rather, why do half of us want to be ruled by such a person? His character was never a secret, he has been allowed to give the nation concrete evidence, and he has already changed the demographics of the Supreme Court. But the support for him—and the willingness to sacrifice everything for him—persists to this day. I don't know how this is even possible.
  • @rickywade5964
    Why wasn’t this going around 6 years ago when this was taped. This is the first I’m seeing of it?
  • @ceceliavoss9174
    Today is October 13, 2023 and I am blown away at how well he understood Trump and knew how his presidency would play out. 😮
  • when I first ran across this video I was very hesitan to watch this now that I actually ñooked at it ,it's amazing,love it thank you so much for opening our eyes to how Trump is
  • @bonita5527

  • @LadyMykel1
