The memes purport to quote the book when stating: “You tell people a lie 3 times, they will believe anything. You tell people what they want to hear, play to their fantasies, and then you close the deal.” Some of the posts refer to Trump as “DON The CON,” others compare the supposed quote to one that is often linked to Nazi leaders Adolf Hitler and Joseph Goebbels.
We searched Trump’s book and didn’t find the quote in question — and, it turns out, the fact-checking organization Snopes debunked the same claim in 2016.
If you don't read the papers, you're uninformed. If you read the papers, you're misinformed. - Mark Twain
