Trump says he doesn’t read because he doesn’t have to.Donald Trump has never read a presidential biography and rarely reads anything that's NOT about himself.
When asked by The Washington Post’s Marc Fisher if he has read a presidential biography, Trump said, "I never have. I’m always busy doing a lot."
We’ve known that Trump does not read books for quite a while, so this is not much of a surprise—especially when you also remember that Trump’s knowledge of presidential history is almost entirely self-serving.
But Trump’s ignorance of the history of America’s highest office is still unnerving, as is the fact that, per Fisher’s report, Trump seems to only read about himself:
He has a lot of common sense.
