About the Book

Say what you will about Donald Trump but he has been a godsend to those of us who write political satire. For the last two years, hardly a day has passed without some crazy pronouncement from Mr. Trump that inspired me to write a humor piece. The only problem is that with such daily craziness, it's often difficult to stay ahead of the satirical curve. Once the golden days of the eight-year reign of George W. Bush came to an end, it looked pretty bleak for those trying to create political humor. With Barack Obama in office, there wasn't much to dislike, much less satirize. But then the unthinkable happened; Donald Trump defeated Hillary Clinton and brought his 24/7 circus show to the White House. Much as my sensible side lamented the defeat of the Democratic candidate, my devilish side celebrated the possibility of four (or maybe even eight) years of non-stop comic material. So here we are at the end of Trump's first year in office and I am blessed with a surfeit of written pieces. In one short year, I have matched my outlet for the entire first term of George W. Bush. At this rate, it looks like I may have to produce an annual volume just to keep up with The Donald. For now, here's the result from "Donnie's First Year."
