Summary
What if there's a hidden dimension to Donald Trump; a sensitive， poetic side？ Driven by this question， Rob Sears began combing Trump's words for signs of poetry。
What he found was a revelation。 By simply taking the 45th President of the United States' tweets and transcripts， cutting them up and reordering them， Sears unearthed a trove of beautiful verse that was just waiting to be discovered。
This groundbreaking collection gives readers a glimpse of Trump's innermost thoughts and feelings on everything from the nature of truth， to what he hates about Lord Sugar。 And it will reveal a hitherto hidden Donald， who may surprise and delight both students and critics alike。
Now with fifteen all-new poems as we lurch deeper into the Trump presidency， this timely publication also includes Sears' scholarly footnotes and introduction， in which he excavates new critical angles and insights into the President's poetry which the casual reader might initially overlook。

Sears has taken Trumps' tweets and transcripts and put them together to create a collection of poems。It's funny， clever and lighthearted。 Sears has taken Trumps' tweets and transcripts and put them together to create a collection of poems。It's funny， clever and lighthearted。 。。。more

Het perfecte voorbeeld van een boek dat ik nooit dacht te lezen， maar niet kon laten liggen in de kringloop。 Heb meermaals hardop gegniffeld。 Of zoals het hoofdpersonage zou zeggen: Great book。 Actually best book ever written。 I am a fantastic poet。 I am great。 You are all losers。

Has been standing on my shelf a few years now and now that his presidency is over I wanted to go back and read this。 Some of the poems are good and reflects the social and political climate in which time it was written。 Some poems are just not good。 However， it has a few fun poems and haiku that made me laugh out loud， and I do suppose it is a new collection to have on the shelf to remember the time。

This is the worse book ever！ I hope the writer has some decency to stop publishing books from now onwards。If you American dream is described like this and， it is how you respect other countries and foreign people better keep it。Morality， ethics and decency all went on the rubbish。

I’ve had some of trumps book on my TBR shelf for a few years now and when I saw that there was a poetry book written by Rob Sears about Donald Trump I thought why not give it a try。 However once I started to read it I felt that if it hadn’t been 32 minutes long I would’ve just DNF it。 It was very hard for me to take it serious when this man wrote about all of the statements and tweets Donald Trump has said。 Its as though Rob is hinting that trump hates all of his rivals。 One of the “poems” liter I’ve had some of trumps book on my TBR shelf for a few years now and when I saw that there was a poetry book written by Rob Sears about Donald Trump I thought why not give it a try。 However once I started to read it I felt that if it hadn’t been 32 minutes long I would’ve just DNF it。 It was very hard for me to take it serious when this man wrote about all of the statements and tweets Donald Trump has said。 Its as though Rob is hinting that trump hates all of his rivals。 One of the “poems” literally said “respect all women grab them by their pussies” wtf！ How do people take him seriously when all he’s going to do is say statements like that。 Overall this book is more offensive than anything and I really doubt your mentality if you find this book entertaining or amusing to read 。。。more

Funny yes， but also meaningless。 It’s a funny parody of much of what Trump has said but out of context。 Each line of each poem is a quote from a different occasion in an attempt to mock Trump but on slightly unfounded grounds。 Believe me， there is plenty of ways to have a go at Trump but at least put him in context otherwise you’re fishing for stuff he hasn’t actually said and that makes the book fictional nonsense rather than political parody even on a silly level。 I mean， you still get a laugh Funny yes， but also meaningless。 It’s a funny parody of much of what Trump has said but out of context。 Each line of each poem is a quote from a different occasion in an attempt to mock Trump but on slightly unfounded grounds。 Believe me， there is plenty of ways to have a go at Trump but at least put him in context otherwise you’re fishing for stuff he hasn’t actually said and that makes the book fictional nonsense rather than political parody even on a silly level。 I mean， you still get a laugh out of it though。 。。。more

I received this book as a fun gag gift。 It’s a fun exercise in creatively using quotes out of context while providing their citations。 Any jab at this piece of shit is warranted。 Even if this was a fast read it was fun。 The playboy quotes about not wanting to be president and his ‘opinions’ on global warming were the most fun to read together。

Easy， empty-minded read。 A fun book for anyone that doesn’t like that orange。 Obviously， it is not very intelligent， but it isn’t supposed to be。 I was amused。

Humoristisesti luettuna paikoittain ihan viihdyttävä， mutta eivät nämä runot kyllä olleet kovin erikoisia。

" I'm a President and you're not，" yup sums it up。 Rob Sears has really cleverly stitched this mad man's utterings into a grotesque American quilt of one of its darkness periods in US history。 " I'm a President and you're not，" yup sums it up。 Rob Sears has really cleverly stitched this mad man's utterings into a grotesque American quilt of one of its darkness periods in US history。 。。。more

So I decided to give this short collection its chance， after the author's high accolading praise for Trump's poetry， and the non-fake reflection of his true character， as after all he did make it to be the President。The poems definitely do not appeal to my sense of humour and look on life- OK， so I laughed out loud twice， but on the whole: just no。 So I decided to give this short collection its chance， after the author's high accolading praise for Trump's poetry， and the non-fake reflection of his true character， as after all he did make it to be the President。The poems definitely do not appeal to my sense of humour and look on life- OK， so I laughed out loud twice， but on the whole: just no。 。。。more

Great book。 A lot of words。 The best words！ Shame， most of the poems are pretty short。

While this book has funny and satirical collections of Trump's poetic statements， recent events have - at least for me - somewhat spoiled the humorous approach on the topic。 While this book has funny and satirical collections of Trump's poetic statements， recent events have - at least for me - somewhat spoiled the humorous approach on the topic。 。。。more

Good stocking filler book！ Some throwaway stuff， but some funny and some actually quite clever ‘poems’ too。

Funny but so depressing。This book is part of a series that creates 'poetry' from known speeches and quotes of notorious world leaders， mixing them up in funny ways that jab fun by revealing something that the person has not actually said outright but is considered so much in line with what they would say and think。 Sadly， this book is one of the least funny of the series， because the subject at hand is the least creatively dumb of the people featured （think George W Bush， Vladimir Putin， and oth Funny but so depressing。This book is part of a series that creates 'poetry' from known speeches and quotes of notorious world leaders， mixing them up in funny ways that jab fun by revealing something that the person has not actually said outright but is considered so much in line with what they would say and think。 Sadly， this book is one of the least funny of the series， because the subject at hand is the least creatively dumb of the people featured （think George W Bush， Vladimir Putin， and others）。 Also， while in the case of other political figures that the series created mock poetry for the people themselves were questionable as well， this one is even more depressing in what it reveals， because it hits too close to home。 Remember that at the time of this review， the catastrophic presidency of the man is ending in flame and patriotardic bullshit with the storming of the capitol in a leader-fueled adolescent rage。 A sample of 'poetry' obtained by juxtaposing two quotes from Trump， one in the notorious recording of him spewing his misogynistic vitriol， and another from an official speech tackling the problem of gender violence。 This sample of hypocrisy is exactly what I mean when I say the book is both funny and incredibly depressing as well: You can do anythingAt the heart of our country is the emphatic belief that every person has unique and infinite value（I just start kissing them）On average there are more than 300，000 instances of rape or other sexual assault that afflict our neighbors and loved ones every year（It's like a magnet）We all share the responsibility to reduce and ultimately end sexual violence（I don't even wait）Recent research has demonstrated the effectiveness of changing social norms that accept or allow indifference to sexual violence（You can do anything）Our families， schools and communities must encourage respect for women（Grab them by the pussy）Together， we can， and must， protect our loved ones， families， campuses， and communities from the devastating and pervasive effects of sexual violence（You can do anything） 。。。more

So funny。。。。for those who are fastidious about citations！

I will admit there were a couple of funny ones。 However， for the most part， I continue to be in disbelief that a president of the United States could find it acceptable and ethical to publicly make such derogatory and inflammatory statements and cannot get around that to fairly judge the poetry

So as a concept the book is clever。 Take the ridiculous stuff Trump has said， rearrange them in haiku， iambic pentameter， sonnets， etc and voila - you have terrible terrible poetry。 Okay， I can live with that。 Except， for a good idea （or a seemingly clever one）， it kind of falls flat and does not deliver。 Don't bother with this。 It is sensational but has no meat on its bone。p。s。 YES， it is a parody。 So as a concept the book is clever。 Take the ridiculous stuff Trump has said， rearrange them in haiku， iambic pentameter， sonnets， etc and voila - you have terrible terrible poetry。 Okay， I can live with that。 Except， for a good idea （or a seemingly clever one）， it kind of falls flat and does not deliver。 Don't bother with this。 It is sensational but has no meat on its bone。p。s。 YES， it is a parody。 。。。more
