About this audiobook
What do you do when you spot a wild Trump in the election season? New York Times bestselling author and comedian Michael Ian Black has some sage advice for children (and all the rest of us who are scratching our heads in disbelief) in this perfectly timely parody picture book intended for adults that would be hysterical if it wasn’t so true.
The beasty is called an American Trump.
Its skin is bright orange, its figure is plump.
Its fur so complex you might get enveloped.
Its hands though are, sadly, underdeveloped.
The Trump is a curious creature, very often spotted in the wild, but confounding to our youngest citizens. A business mogul, reality TV host, and now…political candidate? Kids (and let’s be honest many adults) might have difficulty discerning just what this thing that’s been dominating news coverage this election cycle is. Could he actually be real? Are those…words coming out of his mouth? Why are his hands so tiny? And perhaps most importantly, what on earth do you do when you encounter an American Trump?
With his signature wit and a classic picture book style, comedian Michael Ian Black introduces those unfamiliar with the Americus Trumpus to his distinguishing features and his mystifying campaign for world domination…sorry…President of the United States.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I would imagine even children are smart enough to know better than to read stuff like this. I like the author but I think only as an actor at this point...kinda lol

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Just another hate on Donald Trump repeating the same crap they hear on CNN or MSNBC or some other left wing news outlet. Not original. The author definitely is a soy boy. Not a single original thought in this whole garbage excuse of a book.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5It was pure garbage and all opinion no facts, but hey what better to teach our kids we don’t want those little fuckers thinking for themselves. They may formulate questions and we can’t have that. Questions about foreign policy, national security, and our nations growing debt! Can’t have any questions about what our Senators are really doing instead of working. Oh their correcting people from using the wrong pronouns . That’s a much higher priority. I mean when this country completely falls apart, at least they will have their proper pronouns. Although at that point they might me more interested in trying to wait a half of day for a crust of bread, once we become a socialist banana republic! And what a better group to distort their thinking- American kiddos like they don’t have enough garbage floating around in their. We are now 30th place for testing. So 30 countries ahead of our poor dumb kids, but let’s not educate them let’s make fun of someone’s narcissistic flaws. Like all successful politicians and business people aren’t narcissists, right? Show me a successful person in our society I’ll show you a narcissist or an ass kisser for real. America needs to get their heads out of the sand and our fingers out of our asses, and this book is definitely not the way to go. Read it to your kids if you want company in the garden with your heads buried in the sand together. Although in our disintegrating society your kids probably don’t even get that much attention. Great audio book for the bottom 75%of these lands!
