That is the title of Carl Hiaasen’s latest book, set in Palm Beach and the Everglades. Hiaasen is one of our best satirists, and in this book he takes on Trump and Melania, the Secret Service, and Burmese pythons. Trump and Melania are given fictional names, of course, but the material on Trump is dead on–his vanity, his short attention span, his hatred of immigrants, even his weight get skewered. Interestingly, the Melania stand-in is rather likable, and you find it persuasive that she would loath her husband.
The book is published by Alfred A. Knopf. Ask your local library to purchase a copy.
Incidentally, I watched five minutes of the debate last night. Biden won.
