Absolutely unhinged. In general it was entertaining, but knowing how things continued to go through 2021 it also was a little too on the nose sometimes.

Sometimes hilarious, sometimes mad, sometimes insulting. Worth the read though. It seems to, from what he says, capture how Trump would think even if he wouldn’t think those exact thoughts and the pictures are funny too!

This was supposed to be funny.. supposed to.. sadly it was exhausting to listen to for the most part, even though Alec Baldwin does such a good job of being President Trump, it is exhausting because this is exactly how Donald Trump talks and tweets, this parody is too real, it was torture. Honestly, you could close your eyes, listen and believe this was written by Trump so easily. Sad.

Listened as an audiobook. Parts were really funny, parts were really dry... I was most engaged when Alec Baldwin was reading

Bumped up a star because I listened to the audio version and thought the performances were really good.

I have to admit that I did not complete reading this book but gave the audiobook a fair chance. I think that seeing a parody of Donald Trump is good in small doses but not in a constant exposure. I can only take the real thing within certain limitations and the satire is no exception. If anything, this should be a reflection of the book's accuracy of its character depictions to spark this reaction. Alec Baldwin reads the audiobook and it really is like the Donald is speaking through my car stereo.

Great book I loved it i found it so funny at the start but then it got a bit boring in the last 40 pages.

Meh, it’s one thing to enjoy a 5-minute sketch on SNL about this caricature. However, listening to six hours of this in audiobook format wasn’t as entertaining as I thought it would be. I could have done without the sexual harassment jokes.

This was a good parody, I'm not gonna lie. I did laugh at quite a few bits, and the writing was accurate. However I feel that I had high expectations from the SNL skits. It was a bit tiring to read because I was trying to imagine Trump saying these things in his voice, but it was accurate. Unfortunately I laughed at the images more than the writing, but I still enjoyed it.
