While no co-author is formally credited, Trump was helped by prolific ghostwriter David Fisher.[9] [10] [11] The New York Daily News quoted a witness to the collaboration who considered it a haphazard affair: "He (Donald) got this done on the road with a serial of phone calls and snippets from campaign speeches."[12] Fisher, discussing the book in 2021, said Trump showed no interest in the contents; instead, "what was most of import to him, more than anything, was the pictures."[13]

Trump said in 2015 about the volume's gloomy championship, that a comprehend photo shot inspired it: "there was one picture that was simply mean. It was a horrible, horrible, mean picture.
