For those that need a Labor Day Trump Fix ..
Rona Barrett: Are you hurt by criticism?
Donald Trump: No, not really. I’ve been used to criticism
because I’ve taken a lot of criticism over the last number of
years.
Rona Barrett: I don’t think anybody gets used to criticism
though, Donald. I think you can develop sort of what I call a
right guard shield around you, but I think the first time people
start attacking you, if you’ve never been attacked before, it’s
a feeling and an emotion and an action that is not accustomed,
that you’re not accustomed to. How do you handle it, or how did
you handle it the first time?
Donald Trump: First of all, I think you are right. I
think you probably never really get used to it in the total
sense, and maybe all I’m doing when you say, you know, “Do you
mind criticisms?” and I say, “No, I really don’t.” Maybe I’m
just creating my own little psychological wedge we all suffer
maybe for that kind of a question. But you just have to go with
it. I mean, you’re always going to be criticized no matter what
you do, and you have to realize it, and you really have to
develop a little bit of a tough skin. And if you don’t, you
really cannot survive, I suspect, doing anything of any great
importance.

Rona Barrett: Do you like having a tough skin? Do you
think you have to have a killer instinct in order to be
successful?
Donald Trump: I think you have to some — to a large
extent I think you do have to have, at least a winning instinct.
I think that the world is made up of people with either killer
instincts or without killer instincts, and the people that seem
to emerge all the time — it doesn’t mean they’re the best
people, and it doesn’t mean they’re the happiest people, and in
fact in many cases and in most cases they’re probably not. But
the people that seemed to emerge are the people that are
competitive and driven and with a certain instinct to win.
