From a book review by Dave Shifflet of The America We Deserve by Donald J. Trump, in The American Spectator, February 2000, p.66.
Mr. Trump is also convinced that a deadly biological or chemical attack could put America to its ultimate test: a choice between maintaining its status as a free society and superpower, or giving up some freedoms and betraying allies - especially Israel - in order to avoid further destruction. He rightly points out that most members of the "leadership class" refuse to discuss the biothreat. In an irony that Mr. Trump no doubt cherishes, a mere real estate guy has become the champion of the most serious, and largely unspoken, issues this nation faces.
