About the Book

A faux-scriptural literary satire of the Trump era, written in mock-Biblical chapters and verses as a comic chronicle of celebrity, power, media, branding, and American spectacle.

Twelve books carry the arc from Queens to the second presidency. The form is satirical. The events are documented. The result is a current-events title that is giftable, browsable, argumentative, and built for the political shelf.
