SIAP:

About the president reading..

His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time, and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough, people will sooner or later believe it.

...

On the whole, his speeches were sinfully long, badly structured and very repetitious. Some of them are positively painful to read but nevertheless, when he delivered them they had an extraordinary effect upon his audiences.

...

His opinion of the intellect is, in fact, extremely low ... "The intellect has grown autocratic, and has become a disease of life."

...

(This is where you start realizing who this post is about...)

Everything must be huge and befitting as a monument to the honor of [himself]. His idea of a permanent building is one which will endure at least a thousand years. His highways must be known as "Hitler Highways" ... This is one of the ways in which he hopes to stay alive in the minds of the German people for generations to come.

...

A few years ago he appointed a committee to act as final judges on all matters of art, but when their verdicts did not please him he dismissed them and assumed their duties himself. It makes little difference whether the field be economics, education, foreign affairs, propaganda, movies, music or women's dress. In each and every field he believes himself to be an unquestioned authority.

Source: A Psychological Analysis of Adolf Hitler, 1943, PDF pg 53, 26, 11, 17, and 8 respectively

The comparison is worth noting, especially when it might be intentional. We all know Trump isn't a model of literacy, but he's admitted to keeping a copy of Hitler's writings near his bedside. In this article, he only disputes whether it was Mein Kampf or My New Order.

The Trump administration just lent $700 million to a trucking company sued for ripping off taxpayers - CNN

The US Treasury is giving a $700 million loan to YRC Worldwide, a troubled trucking company that warned in May it was in danger of going out of business.

That's an enormous sum for a company whose stock had plunged 27% this year and was worth only $70 million as of Tuesday's close. And here's the kicker: The government sued YRC for ripping it off.

Long-term competitive problems had taken the company's stock down 85% over the last five years. But shares of YRC (YRCW) shot up 64% in early trading on the news of the bailout.

The company has 30,000 employees, of whom 24,000 are represented by the Teamsters union. About half the loan money will be used to cover short-term contractual obligations, including pension and healthcare benefits. The loan will be due in 2024.
