I just smiled bigly while answering a question on Quora

The question was, and I'm quoting it directly:

CAN YOU WRITE LIKE DONALD TRUMP?

My reply: Sadly, no, for I am literate and educated.

I was tempted to mention a Monty Python sketch, but I wanted to keep it to one line. In it, John Cleese is playing someone from the BBC, driving around this person whom he wants to be in a sketch. while they're riding around in traffic, he says "I wanted to be in programming, but alas, I have a degree."

One of the answers on the page was "He can write?", which I think is an accurate answer. I've never seen any examples except for his signature. All of his books are done by ghost writers. He just spews from his pie hole.

I never cease to be amazed at his ability to make shit up.
