What I learned reading The Art of The Deal is his MO:
Trump: "I have a problem (e.g. Wollman Ice Rink) but know nothing about this topic. Who is the best company that makes ice rinks?"
Makes a few calls to hockey teams to find this information.
Learns the name of the company.
Calls CEO of the ice rink company.
After 15 mins of conversation, learns that freon-based ice rinks suck the monkey and that brine-based ones last forever.
Total elapsed time: Probably an hour.
Hires ice-rink company to help with Wollman Rink.
Project completed in four months and under budget.
No studies, no meetings, just results.
Government bureaucrats: REEEEEEEEEE!
