was there at The Trump Organization about executives coming in
2
to meet with Mr. Trump?
3
A
Mr.
Trump had an open-door policy, which, if there was
4
5
6
somebody in there, you waited; and if not, you knocked on the
door, and I would say, “Boss, do you have a second?”, and I
would walk right in.
7
Q
And others did the same, to your knowledge?
8
A
9

Organization, in his office, did you, generally, need
10
–
I’m
11
sorry.
12
Did you, generally, record those meetings in your calendar?
13
A

Tell us what you mean by that.
When he would task you with something, he would then
say, “Keep me informed. Let me know what’s going on.”
And what he was saying, what everybody did is, as soon as
you had a result, an answer, you would go straight back and
tell him. Especially if it was a matter that was troubling to
24
him.
25
So, two things, just to break that down.
