I really wanted to like this. While it was moderately amusing, turns out reading an entire book in the voice of Trumpster fire, even a scathing parody, is extremely tiring.

The book starts out strong, with the writers channelling the Saturday Night Live (SNL) version of US president Donald Trump. This is not a surprising statement, since Alec Baldwin who portrays/parodies Trump in the SNL sketches is one of the writers. As the book gets further and further into the first year of the presidency some of that drops away and becomes a bit repetitive. It also becomes more difficult to follow due to the many changes to the inner circle, which follows real live events so is not fully the fault of the authors. The changes could have been spelled out a bit better though, especially the Chief of Staff switch from Priebus to Kelly.

It was a pretty funny book, but there were times where it was hard to read because of all the real world nonsense that was happening. It was hard to laugh at some of the jokes because they hit so close to home. But I do recommend it

A joke that carries on a little too long, but spot on and funny, definitely some brilliant lines. Also the pictures make the book.

I really tried to like this book, but I got roughly 30 pages in and had to give up because it ended up annoying me too much.

This was absolutely hilarious, and it is even better as an audiobook. Even though Alec Baldwin only reads as Trump for about 2 hours, it is a lot easier to picture 45 saying these things when you hear it. I was laughing and crying the entire time, and crying because you know he really would say these things. Good job, Alec Baldwin! Big League congrats on writing this gem.

This book has too much hype. It had some funny parts but mainly played off of Trump being stupid and playing too much golf. Thought it could be much better.

It was also a bit rushed towards the end. It seemed like 80% of the book was the first 100 days then boom 6 months in like 20 pages.

Funny, but in small amounts. Best to read a little and put it down for a bit. Additionally, it's scary that it's not far from the parody-able truth of this 2016-2020 presidency.
