At the core, I'm a filmmaker and a storyteller.
I know that if I concentrate on making other people shine, I will shine. It is really about the other person, never about you.
Some people thrive on creating chaos and then operating through it, though usually that's presented as a female trait.
I don't know that Donald Trump really cares about what the outcome is, as long as he's in charge of it. Seeing whom he can steer in which direction and how far he can push them.
