Publisher's Synopsis
They said it couldn't be done, but Evelyn Brooks did it: using the Vulcan Mind Meld, she accessed the minds of 60-odd million Trump voters to find out what they were thinking on Election Day, and reveals the survey results in this deliciously funny book of essays, a SNL-style skit "Trump vs Trump: The Looking Glass," an exit poll survey, a look into the Magical Thinking of "Rump Voters," quotes from popular movies to motivate and inspire marchers and protestors and Town Hall demonstrators, a new theory about whether or not old dogs can change their spots, a tribute to Erma Bombeck, America's favorite humorist who was a staunch supporter of equal rights for all, and a dog interview session in which she's assisted by Captain Kirk and a Universal Translator to discover how the nation's unrest is affecting our companion animals. Grab your thinking cap and jump on board for an insightful and hilarious look into the State of the Union in the first days of Donald Trump's disastrous administration and the real reason that Republicans chose him. The author deliberately assigned this book to the category of "humor"-hoping it will lighten the nation's mood and give encouragement to protestors, and also because a label of "humor" places the book in that nebulous land somewhere between nonfiction and fiction which allows more creative freedom with the use of imaginary surveys and exit polls, dreams about the American flag and fables about secret meetings with Leonard Nimoy, William Shatner and other icons. This is book 2 of Evelyn's "Liberty and Justice" series. Book 1, "America's New Breed of Freedom Fighters," is a serious look at how Trump won the election and what liberals and progressives can do now, was released on Inauguration Day 2017. Additional books are being added to the series to support and uplift the many millions of Americans and allies around the world who are aghast at the reckless actions of Trump's Administration.
